"Right on Track" - Breakfast Club

The 12" single had the following versions of Right on Track: (times from the label)
Side A
Midtown Mix 7:10
Midtown dub 5:35
Canal Street Mix 5:15
14th St Mix 6:00
Side B
Uptown Mix 6:23
Uptown Dub 6:33
Local Mix 4:33

The only one I've found on CD is the Midtown Mix which does run 7:10 and is on the Canadian Unidisc Dance Classics, The Hits, Vol 10

Anyone else have any info on any these mixes?

After the first 20 seconds or so, it's the same as the LP version. And no, unfortunately I've never seen it on CD.

Correct. This is one I have searched high & low for on CD over the years to no avail. And these days I'm afraid that the song has become one of those 80s hits that has sunk into obscurity.

On a positive note, the above referenced 12" single sounds nice and became a great needledrop source for the 45 version.

Wow, what a collection! Pretty much everything that matters released on MCA or associated labels from the mid-ish 80s.

Curiously, which version of "Sister Christian" is on it? One side of the promo single there was a radio edit where the guitar solo was replaced with another chorus. Both versions were the same length IIRC. Of course both my copies of this are rather noisy pressings, and I don't think I've ever run across it on CD.

"Candle in the Wind" with or without applause?
