	I'll ask what I asked about a track on the other volume and hope it's the same good news: What about "One Night in Bangkok"? Was the US single tape for that found as well? Edited by Brian W.

	Yes, the master for "One Night In Bangkok" was provided by Universal Sweden. No vinyl here. MM

	Thanks again to Mark for sending me an advance copy. This volume is also an excellent release. Sound quality is terrific! So nice to have the quality CD versions of "One Night In Bangkok", "Tainted Love/Where Did Our Love Go", "I Melt With You", "Live Is Life" and "Send Me An Angel '89" all in one collection. Kudos to everyone involved. Here's hoping we get more of these outstanding 80s and 90s collections!

	For "One Night In Bangkok," weren't there two versions of the 45--an edit of the LP version with the orchestra tuning up, and another version featuring the music bed underneath Head's "Get Thaied, you're talking to a witness..." verse, followed by the chorus, then by Head's "Bangkok, Oriental city..."? ETA: So if I'm reading the database correctly, the tuning up was the US promo version running (3:52), while I'm guessing the stock 45 was the other version I described. Can someone confirm, and if so, which version are we getting on the new 80s disc? Edited by sriv94

	Yes, that's correct. The version with the orchestra at the beginning was only on a promo 45 in the US. The new CD has the correct stock 45 version.

	Yeah, the stock 45 version has the unique intro, which instrumentally sounds similar to the rest of the song -- and includes the chorus right before the first verse. That's what they used for this CD. (It sounds great, by the way.) I've been looking for a good-sounding 45 version for a long time, as my needle drop was sub par. I can't speak to the radio promo, but the LP version found on the Chess soundtrack has a somewhat lengthy orchestral intro. The intro ends with a flourish right into the first verse. I must say, I don't recall my radio market playing anything other than the commercial 45 version back in the spring of '85. EDIT: Heh...Aaron beat me to it, and more concisely too. It's really such a pity to be looking at the board, not looking at the city. Edited by Plastic Steel

	I was trying to be concise, so I could quickly go back to my bar, temple, and massage parlor.

	From a collector's standpoint, anyone know where the edits are in the LP version to create the 3:52 promo edit?
