Legendary.

The Blue Angel, Cream (and coffee — see "What's My Name"), and my first introduction to "Pimp Prince" (I discovered "Chili Sauce", and the other usual suspects later on), even though you could say it's more a nod to James Brown than the "Cloreen" character.

Part III is somewhat reminiscent of the instrumental ad lib of "Heaven" (1985), near the end.
The synth layers are so beautiful.

Aside: princevault is always good for mind-boggling.
"Heaven" is an unreleased song recorded on 26 May 1985 at Sunset Sound, Hollywood, CA, USA (two days after Hello, the same day as Come Elektra Tuesday and Stella And Charles, two days before Polka-Dot Tiger).

I'm late on this. I purchased one from Amazon.uk and it it was the 3 inch sealed. Looked genuine to me. I'm not sure how easy or viable it is in this day and age to make a bootleg 3 inch CD single anyway. Some people are genuine and do sell for a decent price. Third time I've owned this. Two vinyls and now (I believe) the CD.

Good point. Are you going to open it or just keep it as it is?

Keep it sealed.

The near mint appears on Discogs and the 'brand new' on Amazon UK, probably a boot I would expect. There's also a 'Collectible, Like New' one. How can one tell the genuine from the fake amongst all of these?

I had one! Funny I never paid attention to what parts 2 or 3 were... but I was showing some of my stuff to a friend and he said "oh wow! I'll give you $50 and a copy of GETT OFF *the original 12* He had the cash but I never got the 12"
