Default Marsha Raven "Catch Me" (Big Ben Remix)

Does anyone know if this remix was ever released in the UK? I know it was a big hit in Holland in 84 (coupled /mixed with "Earthquake" by The Flirtations) with the legend "Featuring London Big Ben" on the front cover!

I only know of it through owning a double album called "Top Hits 84" released on Arcade in The Netherlands...there was a picture of the 12" on the cover, although only the 7" version was on the album (it faded out before mixing into "Earthquake"), but I have heard the full 12" mix...whilst in manchester, funnily enough! :D

Hi.

No. I wasn't released in the UK.
Yes, it was a Dutch High Fashion montage in the same vein as thier Italo mixes they did on 12". If I remember rightly it was put with The Flirtations 'Earthquake'.
Maybe one of our Dutch friends can tell us what's goin' on with High Fashion these days but maybe it's on a compilation from the Netherlands.

Vol 1 had a fab montage with Divine, Suzy Q, Jade, Carol Jiani,
Lee Prentiss.

Vol 2 had the above with a little montage with Miquel Brown (So many men), Valerie Allington 'Stop' and my fave rhetta Hughes 'Angel Man'.

Vol 3 had more 'Poppy' stuff on it. Pet shop boys, Alisha etc

Wish I could get all 3 on CD!!!
