	Ed, I have a copy of the "remix" from a rare Lita Ford promo. I do not have a copy of the LP version to compare, though. I seem to recall someone telling me (maybe on this board) that there are differences, but at present, I can't be of much help.

	I believe the version on the 'Best Of' IS the single "remix". The original album/CD 'Lita' had the original (slightly different) mix. (It was the second single from the album).

	Actually Andrew, "Close My Eyes Forever" was the third of four singles from "Lita" album, though the second of two charters... single 1 - Kiss Me Deadly single 2 - Back To The Cave single 3 - Close My Eyes Forever single 4 - Falling In And Out Of Love all were released with picture sleeves...

	Since I don't have the original Lita CD/LP, what are the differences between the LP and 45 mix of "Close My Eyes Forever"?

	I was curious too about the difference. I do have the "Lita" CD. I didn't want to confuse the issue, but when i first read this I took a moment and compared it to version on "Best Of" and to be honest I can't hear a single difference. I figured I am missing something? Thanks for any info....

	Hi people, I finally had a chance to sit down and actually compare the promo CD ("remix")to the 'Best Of Lita Ford' version. Notice how I said "I believe the version on the 'Best Of' IS the single 'remix'"? I was going by my mental notes which are sometimes cloudy. Here's my new take: I think the "remix" is an *increased high-end" version of the version on 'Best Of'(which Mark Matthews says sounds just like the version on 'Lita'. I hope I haven't confused you even more... I'm beginning to think that RCA simply jacked up the treble to make it sound "hotter", slapped 'remix' on it, and a hit was made... Andy

	If the difference between the "remix" and the LP is EQ only, then is a 45 mix/LP mix designation really needed here? Perhaps Pat can offer his take on this.
