Good luck to your pal.
Thanks, it’s been a hell of a year for them
I don’t know 2, 3! or 4 but bought all the others so it’s a good list in my book (and a good question)
I found a 7” of the original and, you know what, not bad at all.
Id’ve thought the MK mix of Nightcrawlers has to be the GOAT of these esp after the incredibly annoying we buy any car add
The Chord Memory rmx is one of the best things DP ever did, ‘The sound of tomorrow, the music of today’.
Hard to disagree on this, massive tune! Although also good, knocks their Gabrielle mix into a cocked helmet.
Might also be hard pushed to name an original better than the Maurice Fulton remix…
I actually can’t listen to that Gabrielle remix. It has the same effect on me as something being scraped down a blackboard. It’s like torture to me
I bought Shit Robot / Simple Things on the strength of the remix but immediately got into the original mix more, think Ive played the remix once or twice since I bought it, the OG mix I play all the time.
and when you hear what MK did from the original
C is for Cookie
I couldn’t believe it when heard it.
Imagine the $ they’ve made off something they hardly deserve a credit on. MK was pretty much unheard of when he did it, so I wouldnt be surprised if it was just a fee and no points!

Ok it’s 11, not 10.
In the absence of a Silver Rox show on Loose.fm this month here’s my January chart.
Much prefer that rare new shoes version that appeared on some pressings. Larry’s mix is a little clompy.
Edit: Although the groove is remarkably similar to Levan’s Mix of ‘All Over My Face’, so maybe it was him after all.
To be fair though, most of the stuff he touched turned to gold. Love his mixes of First Time Around.
Yes, New Shoes versions for me.
The Label says mixed by “In The Corn Belt” which is likely an AR alias?
Also love the mix of First Time Around on here:
