Wonderful Ass...

Does anyone know how many circulating versions there are of the song "Wonderful Ass"? I know of two:

6min 17sec
and
9min53sec

Anyone?

Boris?

I'm also curious if there's a version in good audio quality as the version I know sounds like an umpteenth generation tape copy.

What era are these two versions from? Are they different edits of the same song or completely different recordings with different styles? I've only heard the version with the studio chit-chat at the end.
Life it ain't real funky unless you got that orgPop.

The one on Dreams is pretty good quality.

Besides being much longer, version two of 'Wonderful Ass' is more of an extended dance mix.

there actually at least 3 versions. Theres another one thats about 6 min 40+ secs with the chit chat at the end, that version is from '86, a 6m 19s version from '83 and the 9m 50s version thats also from '86. My fav is the '83, it has great sound quality.
