| Back in 1985 some of the clubs were playing a different version of If Looks Could Kill by Pamala Stanley. I got the Mirage 0-96894 record but my copy was considerably less energy. The remix was more beefed up in the synthesizer department. Anyone out there know what record I'm looking for (or a good place to find it?) PS... Anyone looking for a Pamala Stanley CD? She has her own website and is selling her own greatest hits collection there. |

| The original of this is around 141 bpm,the remix is around 136 bpm. The remix, while slower, is tougher and beefier. The original (IMO) is a bit weak. I don't have my records handy, so I can't give you the label numbers. They are both on the Mirage label though. |

| Back in the day I was told the remix was only issued as a promo. Since Mirage didn't use white labels for the their promos and there were two promo releases (original mix and the later remix) you'll need to check the labels carefully.

| Thanks for the input. I started scouring the online record stores and found out there were two promo pressings out there both labelled as Mirage #821. One shows time same as the commercial #96894 (5:03) but the other has a time of 6:53 and a longer b-side dub also. I am betting this is the one I'm looking for. I love these forums...I'm finding things I've been wishing for for over 20 years.:p |

| hI there, I have both versions of these, on finished copies. Both have the catalogue number 0-96894. The original version (140bpm) runs at 5:03 whilst the remix (135bpm) runs at 6:53, and also shows as being mixed by Bob Miro & Pamala Stanley on the label. Hope that helps :) |

| Andy, Thanks for the info. Would love it if you could add the remix along with a label scan to the A-Z Record Vault... http://www.discomusic.com/records-submit
