A note about 1980s remixes, you can still tell what the song is before the vocal comes in, if you are already familiar with the original version. Back in the 80s remixes were basically extended versions. The song "Let's Wait Awhile" is STILL a ballad with a few added instruments. Now the Cool Summer Mix of Nasty is about the most drastically remixed song as it has more music than the barebones LP version bringing a more jazz appeal to the song.
I paid $60 for this CD and it was worth every penny. I have followed Janet's since the early 80's and have been fortunate to watch her grow over the years. it's no wonder so many artists try to follow in her foot steps. Anyway, you won't find these tracks on any of her regular albums and if you like extended versions, you are going to love this CD. I think it's a must have!
I had to buy this CD again after losing it to an ex :\ I had originaly bought it at the now defunct Tower Records years ago for about $15. I imagine eventually Janet will reissue the Control album along with ALL the various remixes and extras just like U2 and other bands have done. We'll see...
This is a must must have for fans of the Control album because it includes all the remixes/video versions of singles issued from the original album. Simply put: control (live video version); nasty (cool summer mix)--which was used as opening music for Video Soul back in '87; when i think of you (dance mix--which is the video version extended); let's wait awhile; what have you done (ext mix); and Pleasure Principle (this is the version used for the video but you have to edit it yourself--it's not hard to do). Plus, you can also make the shep petibone 7" mix which was on the radio from the version as well. So this remix disc is a complete package. Buy it while it's cheap and in print. I've had one for 10 years--and I still play it a good bit.
