I got a copy of the Section 5 pressing summer 2006 for £18 at the now closed Haggle Vinyl in North London. The old bloke who ran the place was eccentric, abrasive and would have been hopping mad if he had found he had been undercut on a record!

I remember buying my copy from Lucky Spin on the Kings Road, set at the back of some sort of clothes shop. I agree with most, its head and shoulders above the remix with the cleared sample and one of the best from 93. Now I wish I bought a second copy!!

every old skool rave collectors dream, in the serious collectors box. always like the original funny enough, by the S.O.S. Band.
this is right at the top as one of the best old skool 93 tunes.

Beautiful tune worth every penny because it will still sound fresh in years time

the Finest illusion original mix will always be the version for me such a great intro and first break such a great tune a total anthem !!!
but the recording / eq / pressing as Stuck_in_1992 says just doesn't do it any justice .
