Not the masters, the multi-track tapes, which is even better (although apparently took forever to find the right ones with so many takes!). They only used the two-track masters when the exact isolated track couldn't be found...

I Confess (Dave Allen remix) and I Confess (United States of America remix) are actually based on the same mix. The edit/arrangement is the same, but the USA version is cleaner sounding with subtle panning/stereo positioning and eq differences. I... See full review

Thanks for pointing that out - I now have 12" remix which I never knew existed. I was never a huge fan of the 'Smokey Dialogue' (or Monkey Dialogue as one of the entries here has it!!) and this is a totally different mix. Should have been the 'Audio... See full review

Interesting to compare this version to the remixed album version that followed on UB44. The remix uses different reverbs (particularly noticeable on the snare) and the stereo placement is different making for a snappier, more dynamic sound, which is... See full review
