GIVE ME MY REMIXES!
THE JACKSONS - BEST REMIXES
JAPAN E.P. 6 TRACKS
EPIC/SONY ESCA5040
You know, Japan is ALWAYS a country full of surprise-records, and what you can see in the picture is one of this exclusive gems! Following the idea of the "12-inch mixes" cds released worldwide (you know the MJ cds, but in that series you can find also a cd dedicated to Cindy Lauper, Wham! and a few others artists from Epic), Sony Japan released this "BEST REMIXES" from the Jacksons.
Too bad that something went wrong, with the tracklist choice and with the chosen mixes. The cd starts in the best way, with the extended remixes of "Shake your body" and "Blame it on the boogie" (at the time, very rare to find on digital formats) then...almost nothing. Why? With the exception of "Lovely one", which is indeed an "Extended version", the other 4 tracks are taken from 12'' singles but have just a few differences between the remixes and the original versions. So "Can you feel it", "Heartbreak hotel" and "Torture" sounds too similar to the album versions. "Walk right now" with its great extended version is missing, as well as the amazing "State of shock" with extra vocals, released only on 12''. Then "Torture", the magnificent long version still remains unreleased today:the version you'll find on this cd is the 4'30" "single mix". So the chance to put the hands on some rare mixes vanished badly.
