      best single ever -- said my 10 year old self who bought it in a record store in London circa 1985... didn't have a record player--- but I do now!

        Before I could get the CD, this was the only way to get the "full length" version. This song was was edited down to just 7:04 on the LP version at the time.

          This is an exceptionally dynamic recording. A good disc with which to impress friends and neighbors (if that's your thing)!

            Really is quite a good 12" single. the single version just doesnt have the drama that the full lenght verison does. take my word for it. buy the 12" over the 7".
