From 1985 and the track that got them recognised in America. I am 100% sure this is the “Special American Dance Remix” by Stephen Hague but correct me if I’m wrong. My only doubt is that it has the B-side “Maria Gallante” which is only listed on the U.K. release.
Anyways it is a strong track from the album “Crush” and has extra bits added to it including extra precussion, that sonar noise and guitar samples.
“Concrete Hands” has always been a favourite with the road drills and other odd sounds. Again it builds up before the vocals kick in.
“Mara Gallante” is about a love affair with the Caribbean island of the same name! It was recorded live in the studio, without any dubbing thus giving it a “live” feel.

Hi, it’s me again, seems I overlooked this gem. Hope it won’t be much of a trouble for you to reupload it? :o) These mid period OMD singles are so hard to find, it’s just unbelievable! Of course they are not respected, unlike their earlier stuff, but still…

Must admit I haven’t heard them yet – though I know they exist. Are they worth investigating?

Must say i fr a long time were scptical about those radio sessions etc. But then I heard “Soft Cell at the BBC” disc – and just had to reconsider :o) So thanks, I guess I have to give OMD a spin too!
