  • This is the single mix of the song, which is distinct to the album mix included in "The Luxury Gap" album.
    This video was originally available from VEVO but had terrible sound quality. I have redone the audio so now the sound is the way it's supposed to be.
    The music was recorded off a mint 12" 45 RPM vinyl single, distributed by Arista Records for Virgin Records.
    The playback was performed using a Sony PS-X600 turntable equipped with an Ortofon X5-MC high output moving coil pickup. Tracking force, anti-skating, and stylus overhang were configured using a Stevenson protractor and in accordance with the pickup's specifications.
    The recorded music was matched to the sound on the video. Once the recording I've made and the video's original sound were synchronized, the video's sound was removed, leaving the recording I have made in its place. All of this to help ensure a high quality sound recording for presenting this original music video in its proper glory ... or as well as CZcams's compression will permit.

    This song used to play at San Diego nightclubs Mr. Dillon's and WCPC around 1981. I was 18 yrs old then, loved it!

      It is far less played but I think the more familiar version is much better. This one has flaws, the synth fills are cheap sounding or missing entirely.

      @@AMan-zt8tz This may be a B-side, but it was part of a 12" 45 RPM single. The flip side is an extended dance mix of the song.
      The fact that the single is a 12" disc playing at 45 RPM has a lot to do with how well the sound quality turned out, along with using decent quality audio equipment.
