referencing Always On My Mind (12", 45 RPM, Single) 12R 6171

By and large this is a corker of an extended mix but it's taken me more than 20 years to work out what bothers me about it - the climax of the song is missing! The 12" version, despite its length, skips straight from the second "little things I should have said and done..." section into the coda ("maybe I didn't treat you, treat you, treat you...") without the repetition of the first verse that sits between them in the 7" mix, which is the part of the song with the densest arrangement. It's still a great remix but it's strange that it doesn't include what is to my ears the best part of the song!

Worth it on vinyl for the lovely ‘Do I Have To?’

CDr in 1987? Looks like fake item to me. Can someone confirm?

Phil Harding mix is the best one. The 7" Dub (B2) is no Dub version at all it is simply an acapella.

One of the best 12"s of all time, any DJ should have this in his collection
5/5

Synth pop with disco ambitions. 'Do I Have To' is slow and haunting with a sad descending melody. Very nice. 'Always On My Mind' is Elvis updated and made modern for the 80s. A shorter version than on 'Introspective', this is loud, brash and fun to sing along to. Recommended.
