wasted shoe leather always provides a good story though, so it's not really wasted. :D

Someone was talking about Banstyle being a single... It would def make sense by the usual 3 single standard per LP, but to take out Sappys Curry.... That whole composition is brilliant.

Of course a single running over 15min wouldn't make the cut. How would you edit that for radio?

Re: collectors' corner
 

Well, Juanita somehow got a radio edit.

Re: collectors' corner
 

along with born slippy, pearls girl, dirty epic and
a ton of other really long songs..

it's not that hard to make a 3-4 minute edit
out of anything..

doing a good job of it is a different story..

Btw, welcome to the forums, Tony!

Re: collectors' corner
 

yes, I'm well aware of the many uw songs that have a running time of over 9min+ have been edited for radio... the question was more of a direct one - How would YOU edit that for radio?

I know how I would and I think I might have a short version somewhere amidst my vast collection of digital files... I might have edited it for a compilation I made... I'll have to dig into the archives.

-1 - so true about the edit being good. Most radio edits are abruptly ended...

Re: collectors' corner
 

I'd say the music video gives a pretty good idea of what they'd have had in mind for an edit of Banstyle. Speaking of which, does the existence of a music video lend further credence to the theory that it was supposed to be a single at some point?

Re: collectors' corner
 

you would think, but I think it was filmed to support several videos for a visual compilation. Depeche Mode did the same thing for their release of "Strange" - Pimpf was never to be released as a single, however, there is a video for it... and it worked to support the other videos which were singles.

we won't see a single for Banstyle unless uw decide to re-invent it like Born Slippy.
I'd be down for that.

From the discogs Sales History:

This last sold on Dec 30, 2011.

5.00 Canadian would be right in line with that. Plus, who wouldn't want a hard copy of that picture on the front, right?? ;)
