How many Bassline 12"s were there exactly? Mine reads: "Mantronix (the 12" single) - Bassline" on the spine. The A-side has "Bassline(Club version)" and the B-side has "Bassline(Instrumental Version)" and "Bassline(Radio Version)". Chep (Bad Boy) Nunez edited it and it was released in 1986. +----------------------------------+ | Eric Frans | | franse@bigdog.engr.arizona.edu | +----------------------------------+
