(Forever) Live And Die (Extended Mix)

This release features the original 'Potoker' remix (called 'Extended Mix') wich was issued with very first copies of the 12"-single, only. The Potoker mix was shortly after withdrawn because the band didn't like it. Virgin Records had already pressed some records and printed up a lot of covers and delivered them to the stores. Same happened to the UK release. The Potoker remix can bei identified by the runout matrix A-1/8-86 B-1/8-86 II only. These being quiet rare, now. All other pressings with A2... matrix feature the new and more common Tom Lord-Alge remix. Once the pressing and delivery of the Potoker-Mix had been stopped, the still existing and remaining 'Potoker-covers' were simply used for the first 'newly' pressed Tom Lord-Alge remix 12"-Singles. After the 'Potoker-covers' exhausted, it was re-designed and featured the correct Lord-Alge as 'remixer'. The labels for all releases are correct, though. As both mixes clock in at nearly the same time (5:45) and no name of the remixer is stated on them. Other editions with this cat# - 608 478-213: 1.
