Oh, yes,
Endlessly ... what this thread was actually about before I hijacked it with
Hiroshima Mon Amour conspiracy theories ...
I concur that the 1983 double 7-inch gatefold single (of
Endlessly) does appear to have been more obtainable than the single 7-inch release, as the former was readily available here in New Zealand and my copy was certainly bought here, brand new (probably excess stock sent out to the 'arse end of the world' ... where did it get in the UK singles chart again ... 66?).
Having now read back through this thread more carefully, I must apologise for the inadvertent torture,
Rob. I had no idea that you didn't really like
italicised text ... and you think you know someone, eh?
I've always endeavoured to present track titles in italics with subtitles in parentheses, with an unofficial subtitle detailed within single quote marks within the parentheses, thus:
Endlessly ('7" single edit') 3:35, as opposed to an official subtitle such as
Enter The Angel (Extended Mix) 5:54, although this is often compromised due to artistic presentation within the layout and packaging. But, certainly, it can be difficult with some edits, mixes and versions not being labelled as such (particularly with releases in different countries) and with track playing times also listed incorrectly, as it can certainly lead you on the proverbial "wild goose chase" (I've now got a headache, myself).
Cheers ...
