    One Of The All Time Great Maxi Single Experiences Ever, Gett Off Is One Of Prince's Best Club Bangers And The Extended Remix And Gangster Glam Are Worth Every Penny To Own If You Love Prince.

      Side A of my copy is entirely mono !!
      Side B is stereo.
      It is not stated on the labels, but a quick headphone listening reveals that.
      I suupose it's a mistake. The same mixes on other s are stereo.
      ARE ALL COPIES LIKE THIS ?

        The 'Gett Off' maxi-single is fantastic. Gett off was the song that signaled Prince's new sound at the time, which led to a comeback for him on top 40 radio & the clubs. The song itself is one of the most satisfying hits Prince has ever had in his career, and the maxi single further expands on that. The extended remix sees Prince rapping and experimenting with production techniques that were popular in the early 90's, including samples and breaks. Although this might make it sound dated, it still surprisingly holds up very well to this day.
        What really makes this Maxi-single a must have are the remixes.

        The 'Houstyle' mix is fantastic and THE standout remix in my opinion. This one brings the song into more of a lounge/laid back atmosphere, but still has the great energy that can be found in the original single mix. It clocks at 8:19, which might sound long, but believe me, there isn't a dull moment in this mix. The production is top notch on this one, with Prince perfectly executing the 90's sound.

        'Violet The Organ Grinder' samples the main 'Gett Off' beat, with only some slight variation in the production. The chorus on this one is catchy, and the orchestral segments are nice.

        The 'Flutestramental' is cool, while 'Gangster Glam' and 'Clockin' The Jizz' are fun variations on the original version of the tune.
        All in all, it's a fantastic Maxi-Single, one that every fan should own in their collection.
