MIAMI SOUND MACHINE - "Bad Boy"

Message Topic Search Topic Options Post Reply Create New Topic Printable Version Translate Topic

   Another question for clarity - the version used in the music video for "Bad Boy" (the one with the "Cats" type of cast) - that's the version I'm most familiar with. (Saw it on VH1 on all the time). That's the US remix, right? The Pablo Flores mix? ... which is on "Playlist" and the Promo "Hits" (although unlabeled) and on the import "Greatest Hits" from 1992. BTW, that CD seems to have 2 covers - a much wider, longer picture of the "GH" cover we're familiar with, and one with her in a white dress and white background, right?

And the Shep Pettibone 7" mix is on "Essential" and "Very Best Of"/Europe?

Once this is sorted out I'd like to know if both remixers have a 12" version. According to the credits on "Twelve Inch Mixes" and "The Best Remixes", they do - but they sound identical to me.

	The US single version is remixed by Shep Pettibone. It starts with the finger snaps and handclaps (no other drums), and yes, it's the one in the music video with the "cats." The US 12" (also remixed by Shep Pettibone) has an extended version that sounds similar the US single version. The version on Twelve Inch Mixes is the US 12" version. I don't know what's on The Best Remixes. The UK Primitive Love CD from 1985 has a different extended version, which I would assume is what's on the 12" in Europe. Again, I can't confirm for sure, but it's drastically different from the US 12" version.
