    Just a heads up: the song "Are You Ready For Love" differs from the version found here:
    https://www.discogs.com/release/8383939-Elton-John-The-Thom-Bell-Sessions-77
    The 2022 is a duet with The Spinners, the 2016 version is Elton singing alone with The Spinners on backing vocals.

    I admire Gavin Lurssen work, so I was very pleasantly surprised to read his name on the credits for this EP.
    The lavander vinyl is flat, centered and quiet.
    The music is fenomenal - I mean, Elton John supported by the M.F.S.B. and the Spinners? Gimme Gimme Gimme!

    Is the version of "Are you ready for love" the one featuring The (Detroit) Spinners?
