The original version, remastered.

A host of other bands that have some connection to The Sisters are presented here, for the curious... :|

I shall report back... 😂

EDIT: Not a needledrop - but it is (I think) the same version as on "Was Het Nu 70 Of 80? Vol 2" (1995), that being an edit of the 12" into the 7" shape.

If you can here the drum solo start up in the fade-out, it's an edit of the 12" version.

@ robertzombie - This 7" version is discussed on your thread about your needledrop project.

To quote you: "Most intriguing. It's not *actually* the 7" version. Rather, it is the 12" version from SGWBM edited to mimic the 7". You can tell by listening to the very end. On the original 7", the high hat continues for an extra beat in the fade out, whilst on the 12" version the drums end cold and the guitar fades. Also, the 12" version has a slightly wobbly/wah wah guitar fade which is different to way it fades on the 7".
Compare the ending of my 7" transfer with the ending from the Belgian CD and SGWBM. It's clear that they've taken the Extended Version and cut it :)"

Regardless, it's a rare opportunity for fans to pick up the track in any form and the new EQ curve gives it legs.
