Here's a bit of an oddity. Anyone got this?: https://www.discogs.com/...onfusion/release/1715298 Available in six snazzy colours - blue, red, purple, yellow, dark green and lime green (the only one I own). It's single single-sided too, with no groove on the reverse. It features an exclusive edit of the song, clocking in at 3:38. I really can't remember what's different about the mix, and don't currently have a turntable to check. However, I'm convinced it is different from the standard UK promo 7", and probably not just a slightly earlier fade. I don't suppose anyone has a vinyl rip of it that they could furnish me with. It has been probably 30+ years since I last played it and it'd be nice to hear it again. (I really need to get a turntable). At least I think it's the only one I own. I have a distinct memory of having a purple one in my hands (steady, Michael) at some point. Perhaps that too is in a box somewhere. I need to get organised.

I need to get organised. i have the green one, i was looking into getting other colors, but most are hard to find, there is a purple one on discogs, i was thinking about. maybe the other colors will show up again someday. i'll try to rip this one for you. l remember doing it for my 'interenational 2' project several years ago. later -1

Always wondered if the Marbled was just a pressing error. Red and Yellow are dastardly hard to get. Think I even have two Greens, if anyone wants a trade.

I can only presume they were going to use it as the B side to the promo 7" but didn't, so repeated the A side instead.

Didn’t realise the vinyl was that rare. 10 copies according to Discogs. Crikey!
