The Vocal mix would not sound out of place on Introspective, with a sound they would revisit with Domino Dancing.

This remix single sounds even more legendary at 33 rpm

This is an amazing sounding pressing. B-side YKWYWW in particular absolutely stunning. We’ll worth seeking out this Japanese 12”.

The sound quality on this 12" release (on my copy at least) is terrible. Sounds like mono (I can´t hear any stereo effects) and like if it were sorced from a very low quality mp3...completely muffed. Really below the quality of the alredy low quality Brazilean releases. The picture cover is great btw ;).

referencing It's A Sin (7", Single, Promo Folder) 1C 016 20 1888 7

I've always wondered if this is really a separate press pack to Rent or they were just distributed at the same time with either the 7'' of Rent or It's A Sin or maybe even both as the folder, sheet and posters are identical, the poster and folder photos and release info suggest it was given away AFTER the release of Rent and only the Rent 7'' is actually promo stamped and numbered whereas the It's A Sin 7'' is just the standard commercial release with a sticker. Anyone has more information?

Bought this and the cassingle for the additional mixes. My copy of the 12 inch contains the mistake about the forthcoming album Jealousy which was actually named... um... Actually!
"Jealousy" was an old song the PSB wrote early in their career though it didn't surface until the album Behaviour was released. Nice mix and great b-side!
