Ian Seaman Posted June 9, 2010 Share Posted June 9, 2010 I have this CD and notice that 2 tracks, Gloria Jones - Tainted love & R Dean Taylor - Ghost in my house are both non original tracks this is a Universal CD and the other 48 tracks are all original so this is baffling me as to why they would use these 2 poor inferior tracks, both sound semi disco ish lol Anyone any ideas why ?? Cheers, Ian. Link to comment Social source share More sharing options...
Liamgp Posted June 9, 2010 Share Posted June 9, 2010 Any CD crass enough to be called 'Mod Mania: A Way of Life' should be avoided as should anything with titles such as 'Keeping the Faith' 'Out on the Floor' or 'Casino Classics'. More properly it should be called 'Cheapo Cash-in: Buy Me You Mug'. Now to be honest I haven't seen this CD myself but it's even money that it's got a target somewhere on the cover!

Guest ScooterNik Posted June 9, 2010 Share Posted June 9, 2010 I think there is an alternative version of RDT on one of their other mod compilations too. I'll have a check in the morning. Link to comment Social source share More sharing options...

This will probably outsell far better and more serious compilations by a margin of 20:1 believe it or not. Strange but true. Ian D Link to comment Social source share More sharing options...

Guest WPaulVanDyk Posted June 11, 2010 Share Posted June 11, 2010 the same thing happend with a cd done by dmc/mastermix a few years ago of Northern soul. they somehow put like 2 re-records of songs on it. One being The Tams Be Young Be Foolish Be Happy what gets me is Universal have done CD's in the past and used the original to both tracks in question, so why not now Link to comment Social source share More sharing options...
