While I appreciate the clarity and practicality of CDs, I sort of lament the demise of vinyl and the great artwork that the sleeves provided...namely 12 inch singles. Stevie's 12 inch singles are particularly cool. I have a decent collection, but I know I'm missing some good ones. Here's my collection. If anyone knows of others that exist that are worth the effort to obtain, let me know!
Edge of Seventeen- live edited/unedited -the feathered head dress...amazing iconic image
Stand Back -edited/album version - same image as 45 single
If Anyone Falls - same white image as 45 single
I Can't Wait - rock mix/dance dub mix/dub rock mix/The Nightmare (alt version with different vocals and lots of Waddy's guitar)
I Can't Wait - extended mix/ Rock A Little (alt version with different vocals/background vocals...IMO much better than the album version, apparently only featured on this Austrailian release)
Imperial Hotel/I Can't Wait - rock mix - standard white cardboard sleeve with a pink Modern label on it, featuring the song titles and the Rock A Little logo. A US release, it's interesting that Imperial Hotel is the A side!
Reflections From The Other Side Of The Mirror - not technically a 12" single, but a great photo shot and interview
Rooms On Fire/Alice/Has Anyone Ever Written Anything For You (live at Red Rocks) - the sleeve of this single is actually a two sided huge poster that folds open. How cool is that?
Long Way To Go (remix)/7 " version/Real Tears - a substantial beautiful gate fold cover with 2 large great photos on the inside, hand-tinted by Stevie!
Whole Lotta Trouble/Edge Of Seventeen/Beauty And The Beast (live at Red Rocks) - features big images on both sides, a giant two-side poster, with the record itself in a black sleeve that slides into the main sleeve.
Sometimes It's A Bitch/Desert Angel/Battle Of The Dragon(s) - same image as the single. Nice!
I Can't Wait (TimeSpace version)/I Can't Wait (dub version)/Sleeping Angel -beautiful image, includes two 9 1/2 x 9 1/2 photographs
Planets Of The Universe Illicit Club Mix/Illicit Vocal Dub Intrumental/Tracy Young Club Mix/Illicit Vocal Dub/Tracy Young Universal Dub
