So more rare stuff from Mike with this DJ pack from The Pet Shop Boys at the height of their power from 1988. Their third album, “Introspective” with some added remixes. Collaborating with all the hippest DJ’s, producers and bands of the time (Marshall Jefferson, Frankie Knuckles, Trevor Horn and Stephen Lipson, Julien Mendelsohn, Shep Pettibone and Junior Vasquez)
It’s breathtaking stuff, PSB at their pomp and well ahead of the game, with added bonus of some rare mixes, a true, synthpop gem!

Just saw the Pet Shop Boys stuff you posted. Thanks so much.
Please repost. Great, rare stuff!
Re-upped for you!
Can u please also fix this one for me…..thanx for your Work
Yes, this place is a bit of a monster that needs feeding with vinyl occasionally. I’ve re-upped for ya!
Yes….but it is just a sweet little Monster
sweet! thank you so much for this Re-uppage. i didn’t even know it existed. these remixes were not included in their Further Listening series. for shame! what they need to do is release a massive, complete singles box set with every damn mix and B-side including unreleased material. one can dream. cheers from NYC!
This was truly ahead of it’s time, and I loved that they “covered” their own track “I’m Not Scared”, even though the “original” by 8th Wonder is a million times better (maybe cause Patsy Kensit is so damn cute)
;-D
Please re-up this one!
Many thanks
Please re-up this one!
Thanks for re-upping, but something weird is going on. I am only getting a TextEdit file, rather than an MP3 or other audio file. If you could fix it that would be great. Happy Christmas, and thanks for this great blog
You must own an Apple ?
Yes, but I’ve not had a problem downloading before
just add an ”r” to the file. that makes it a rar-file. at least that worked for me…name is incomplete
link doesn’t work
Link DOES work. add ”.rar ” to the name and it changes into a RAR-file….Don’t forget the dot…….
Thanks Fred. I’ve got it now
