    I am holding in my hands a Sade 7" which someone at Sony UK told me
    was very limited.
    It contains Yard Mix1 Remix Credits are given to: Rowan Dwyer &
    Christopher Miller.
    The Reggae Mix 1 on the flip side is credited to Barry O'Hare. I cant
    say that I'm a fan of either, but maybe they'll 'grow' on me with
    plays.

    Dont get me wrong, I'm a lovers rock/reggae/dub fan but imho these mixes are
    disappointing. As I'll be in San Fran when the album drops, I'll be
    first in the queue to get one paying dollars vs. pounds.

    For my money, the talents of Hale, Matthewman and Denman, & Adu are
    generally better than remixers... I cant quite conceive of Sade being
    vocoded & pitched up for 2step(uk garage) or even coffee table drum n
    bass...so I spose for once I'm on Sade's side....

    Q: What other promos are circulating in the US? - as I'm making a trip to
    San Fran in about 10 days, I want to look out for them....even house boots
    (I have a few from short bursts of record shopping in nyc in the mid
    90's) which is probably the complete antithesis of the paragraph
    above, some of the house producers seem to understand how to lay her
    vocals over the grooves, specially if it's what i call 'deep house'.

    i'm feeling schizophrenic today anyway...
