I picked up the 12" last weekend at Mod Lang, Berkeley. I somehow forgot to listen to the original mix, but the Black Dog remix is a mid-speed funky rhythmic workout, very reminiscent of some of the Bullitt remixes, with some minimal melody sprinkled over the top. Very nice, but it helps to be a fan already, it's not something everybody might go ga-ga over. Another nice remix is the Plaid remix of Alien's Frankie the Prankster, out on Blue Room. I wasn't that impressed the first time, I thought the melody was nice and that was about it, but nowadays I'm playing it at least once or twice a day. It helps to be a huge sucker for a good melody. Did anyone track down that South American release? Plan V vs The Black Dog? Any leads to where I might get my grubby hands on a copy, short of planning a vacation trip to Argentina? Have listers in Japan had better luck, perhaps? Thanks for any info. Playing now: oldies but goldies...
