🤌 Sounds great on this pressing. I really don’t get why they have the instrumental as the b-side, why would anyone want to remove Bowie from the experience? I guess you could Karaoke 🤷‍♂️

I wish Jennie Abrahamson would release a hard copy (CD or vinyl) of Bowie's This Is Not America. She does a great, minimal, live performance of it with a glockenspiel. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=XtW1h_k7cZg

Shame, as I just found out that the music and the groove was 'stolen' from https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=1n1eVJo13Mg (Oscar Rocchi's Orchestra - Much More). Yet, no credit given..

If you Google This Is Not America (Smackos Emax Disco Remix) you can still this remix via the Fact Magazine website "Legowelt gives away remix of David Bowie’s ‘80s classic ‘This Is Not America’"
