More hard to find 80s dance 12" versions on CD

"The "I Love Disco" series keeps going, with another set of predominantly 12" versions of many dance artists of the 80s, both American and European. Check out all the discs by the label Blanco Y Negro-great sound quality, and not beatmixed. Here we get some real goodies, including the 12" of Laura branigan's "Self Control" which I'm pretty sure was simply the full length recording that was then paired down for inclusion on her album, because it has vocals not even used on the original version. Chaka Kahn's "I feel for you" is the album version, not the 12", as is "Wild Boys" by Duran Duran, and searchin by Hazell Dean. The "Performance mix" of Dead or Alive is on here, not the slightly longer Murder mix released on the US 12". It's also loaded with Eurodisco if that's your thing. Track times:
