   Is it just my imagination or the NOW 47 UK version is a completely different instrumental mix that is not the LP or the radio mix played here in the US?

	Favorite two expressions to live by on this board: "You can't download vinyl" and "Not everything is available on CD."

	There are 2 versions of "Babylon". One that was a hit initially in the UK which has sparse instrumentation (acoustic guitar, drum programming) and a remix/edit (2nd verse is cut) of the original version with added instrumental and vocal overdubs that was the hit in the US Both of these versions appear on the US pressing of Gray's "White Ladder" CD.
