Roxette – Dressed For Success

"Dressed For Success" has four distinct 12" versions. First released in 1988 is the Sweden only "The Look Sharp Mix" remixed by Acke Herrlin and Magnus Frykberg. It's the longest of all mixes (7:50), the rarest and also the least good of all. Uninspired and repeating editing all the way through.Then came the "Look Sharp Mix" in 1989 by Chris Lord-Alge, the shortest of all (4:50) and way better than the previous one. Extended and edited only in the beginning of the song before first verse. From that point, the song was heavily remixed and transformed. First with "The Remix" (6:33), also in 1989, by Mark McGuire, with bold editing and crazy loops and scratches. Might be the best of all versions. And finally, we have the US "Success Mix" (6:43) by Daniel Abraham in 1990. Brand new backing track (the 3 others are based on the original), with new drums and bass line in the US traditional way back in the 80s ("Dangerous" got the same treatment). A good straightforward remix aimed at the club.
