I might have missed it - in between the endless conversations   - have we confirmed that the CAC digital release is identical to the 1995 German CD single? It sounds like that to me, but I am NO expert!

Also @Aiwa08wasn't there an in-house CD with the Rescue Me dubs in digital?

About the CAC EP, something we talked about @club78boy:

I compared the Movie House Mix with the one from the Yellow Single CD, and they do match in speed, indicating that they come from the same master.
Now, because the one that I have is the @Aiwa08 shared, EQ'd to match the equalization of the Japanese boxset, I don't know if this mix from these 2 sources (the new digital EP vs the Yellow Single) is the exact same track, or a variation of the same master.

Couldn't compare the other tracks yet :|

But at least they didn't boost the audio levels! yay! (:

I'll compare tomorrow when it's available here in the US

• Burning Up (Original Album Version) Available only on vinyl and cassette.
• Over And Over (Dub) Available only on vinyl and cassette.
• Open Your Heart (Remix) Available only on vinyl and on It's Thar Girl cassette.

- Fever (Back to The Dub 1 - UK promo 12")

- Buenos Aires (TV and Acapella - from promo cassette)

- Nothing Really Matters (Vikram Cybercut - from US promo)

Also hoping to get nice and clean versions of those!

They have uploaded tracks from the German Yellow CD Singles in the past (or at least from the same masters)...

oh, I hope not! One of the nice things about the True Blue 35 was a decent, new transfer of the Open Your Heart dub!

I will be happy to have nice, clean versions of the Dub and Movie House Mix!

Those German CD singles from 1995 were muffled and distorted.

What are you smoking? 

It's the exact same vocal on both versions. Aside from the fact that you can hear it clearly, it's also well documented that the take used in the final release was the demo take - she never sang it again according to Leonard. I believe her response to the possibility of re-recording the vocal was "why the fuck would I do that?" .

and we know this isn't true because the vocal in the stems is a different take

NOPE! lol

I am very happy to finally be getting some of these mixes and edits digitally! I would love to finish the 80's though with:

Everybody (Rusty Egan Mixes)

Burning Up (Jellybean Remix)

Dress You Up (Remix Edit)

Over and Over (Remix and Dub)

Causing A Commotion (Mixes and Dub)

I couldn't agree more and thank you @frozen78

with all the filtering on the file, sounds fanmade to me

I'm pretty sure Jellybean confirmed on his Instagram that he did both Burning Up remixes in the same session and yes, MTV was more rock at the time, hence the "video version."

No. It was the album version everywhere. The remix/edit was US promo only.

Actually, the commercial release of Dress You Up in Canada did include the remix/edit - untitled. I own a copy and can confirm.

I am still dissapointed that they didn't give us the full/movie version of This Used To Be My Playground. It feels like that might have been our last shot?

OMG we better get both Dubs for WTG and CAC!

so..... do we have an idea of what's next? I would love to get more vinyl/cassette only mixes on digital platforms!

I like any part of this.  I definitely don't think Burning Up would be included though because I can see the other four being possible.  My bet this will be a pretty quiet release, unless they make some noise for Into The Groove.  Though, my bet it won't be until next year that Into The Groove will get some real lovin' from the Madonna team.

hey..  you never know! They tacked Fever (Edit Two) onto Rain and that was only available on the German 12"...

I was pretty happy with I'll Remember and looking forward to more releases!

I lost track here with all the back and forth. What's next on the release schedule? if we even know...

if you plan on recording the entire show, some of us would LOVE IT!

doesn't he say "where's the scratch vocals?"

I am very happy with this release. Keep them coming...

I am hoping we get the two vinyl/cassette only remixes of I'll Remember. Next Friday right?

I am quite sure I read somewhere lucky star and borderline were shot back to back but I couldn’t remember the source.

Unless we see proof I do not believe it was shown on mtv at the same time as Borderline, that would make no sense. It was done for the uk.

yes, in her first Australian interview with Molly Meldrum on April 16, 1984 she mentioned that the Lucky Star video was only meant to be aired in Europe and was surprised Australia and the US were airing it.
