thanks, all sorted, just bough the album

The Fantasy (Demo only) 12" is very desirable, but I actually like the 7" version. Nice tight mix.

(Great memories of Graham Warr at Chaplins in Birmingham)

Now Bri has been sorted has anyone got another copy of the LP for sale? Keep meaning to pick it up but never get round to it.

As Mel says the 12" always goes for decent money, is it not to do with its connection to one of the big NY clubs.

Anyone got a soundclip of the 7" to compare?

The Southbound STAR - THE BEST OF... CD (released in 1989) does have the 9+ minute version:

It's a good set

OVER AND OVER also appeared in the UK on the MIGHTY REAL L.P. (U.K. Fantasy FTA3009 ~ released in 1979), but I don't know how long that vinyl version is.

If I'd been wise enough to read this topic at the week-end, I could have dug out the L.P. and had a look...

Alright Jocko, apparently the only difference is song length, apparently the mixes are both the same, apart from that.

The 7 inch version is one of the finest example of the art of the edit. Takes something overblown and exagerated and turns it into a perfect dancer.

I couldn't agree more.
