    Now I have two copies of this I'm inspired to buy every copy I find in a charity shop (on any given day there is one for sale somewhere in every town in the UK), and fill an entire record storage cube full of them, then place it in a local park. Because that's art, and this fucking stupid hobby is all about art.

      This eventual global album was originally compiled in London by Phonogram. It's a great LP to have BUT like most things it's seriously and needlessly flawed.
      1. Rockin' Roll Baby is the edited single and looses the guitar break and the fade out (don't you just love USA Radio, shabby or what!)
      2. People Make The Word Go Round is totally destroyed and lost in this vile edit NOTHING but the full 6 min+ version can ever do it's a Philly gem and classic.

      The USA version of thi$ came out a year later and B2 Stop, Look Listen was substituded for the USA Radio edit (again!!) of Heavy Falling Out. Canada like they do, also followed the USA version.

      Whilst I like HFO it was switched to boost sales of the USA "Heavy" album (UK Title From The Mountain). Stop Look Listen was/is a very important Philly track and if a track had to go then IMO "You're A Big Girl Now" although their first USA Avco-Embassy single would have been much less of loss than SLL .
