Compare the second
chorus at "I wanna make it tonight..." (around the 1:50

The first is the same as the 45 and video. The second is
(I believe) the album version.

Wow!

Thanks Scanner for doing the research!

I like the ending fade better on the (supposed) LP
version because it gives a little louder & longer sax
solo (Jim Horn) than the hit 45 version. I do like the 45
version's 2nd chorus vocal inflections better, though.

I thought I would have to track down the 'Won't Be Blue
Anymore' LP version, but it turns out I have it on a TM
Century/Mobile Beat 2 Mobile DJ compilation.

What I DON'T have is a CD version of the correct fade of
the 45 mix. My 45 ends with Dan Seals vamping something
like "Yeah, You" on the sax fade, but my CD versions dump
before that.

Does anyone out there have a CD with the correct 45 mix
fade??

Thanks for checking...

Andy

This one also has more of a "chugging" prominent bass
throughout.

This appears to be put out by Varese if the cover matches
the music in the video. There are other slight, slight
mix differences regarding loudness of guitar in bridge,
etc. I think Varese got an alternate mix which had to be
done in the 1985 range because you would never be able to
recut the backgrounds with it's tight production.

To my ears, it sounds like the Varese mix uses the first
chorus and the single mix has a different chorus which is
similar to the penultimate. Overall, the Varese mix
sounds off and like one they were kicking around in the
mid 80's. Actually this appears to be album version.

If anyone has the 'Won't Be Blue Anymore' LP could they
please check if the Varese version actually is the original
version as "Bop" was the 2nd single off of an already
released album (so EMI could have easily decided to remix
it for optimum airplay).
