Fuck... No Burning Up (Alternate Album Version) as B-Side of Angel...

Occasionally, I dream of having four boxes, each representing a different decade (1982-1991, 1992-2001,...) filled with all of her 7’’ singles (with the original promo B-Side) including the contemporary ones never available on vinyl.

I agree with you, but first, something needs to be transferred. We were discussing the best quality format for the Blond Ambition Tour, which is the original SD master tape. So, if you want the best quality, you need a copy of that tape on DVD-9 or 'SD on BD'. After that, it can be transferred to be played on your computer, and it will be better than the Laser-Disc version.

Good luck playing this in your computer:

Fortunately, the SD master tape is better than the LD version. DVD (double layer) would be the perfect format (or better yet, the almost unknown SD-BD format).

Because in Europe the 7'' Remix was the version played on radio stations. For many of us is the "original" version (and the best version). And it's unavailable on CD.

But there is a simple explanation for this: in 1990, radio stations switched from playing vinyl records to playing CDs. During that same year, the only edited versions available on CD of her old songs were on TIC. Therefore, TIC was the best option for radio stations to play edited versions from a digital source, all available on a single disc. Unfortunately, many of her original 7'' have not been available from digital sources for decades Of course, when Celebration arrived, it became the new source for playing her old songs on radio stations, and TIC was forgotten. PS: Her first promotional CD-Single in the USA was ‘Like A Prayer’ in 1989. And the first promotional CD-Single in Europe was 'This Used To Be My Playground' in 1992 (if my memory serves me right). I’m referring to promotional CD-Singles sent to radio stations, I’m not talking about commercial CD-singles.

The Japanese 40 CD-Singles Box:

Choppy? It only has one edit in the middle and it’s perfectly done. The beginning starts with the melody, and the end is a simple early fade. It’s one of her best edits for radio, without anything important left out. And personally I prefer the 7’’ version over the album version. The TIC version sounds like the vocals were recorded in the bathroom of a church.

Some fans forget something very important. Many non-fans only know and love the versions played on the radio. And those are the versions they want in streaming (including me).

I'm sorry, I don't have that version in any format (neither vinyl nor digital).

It’s the same case as “Like A Prayer” and “Express Yourself”, with a mix similar to the album version as side A, and a remix edit as side B, but this time the roles were reversed, with the remix edit as side A and the 7’’ mix available only as a promo (as side B).

Express Yourself (Live at the MTV Awards 1989)
