To be a lover - Billy Idol

It may seem like I am on a buying spree with regards to Billy Idol singles recently, but that's all because I discovered some very delicious limited editions. Take this one: a double pack of singles, featuring 'To be a lover' and 'White wedding'. The latter appears in a record company sleeve, and it is of course a previous single by Billy that the record company probably had to get rid of.

Still, if you bought this you got four pretty great tracks, because even the B-sides are worth a spin. I've never heard the 'Mega-Idol mix' before; a medley of 'Flesh for fantasy' and 'Hot in the city' which you have to hear to believe. It's actually quite messy... But great fun, as most of the Billy Idol tracks at that time.

My collection: 7" single no. 6870
Found: Discogs.com, received 18 February 2023
Tracks: 'To be a lover' / 'All summer single' // 'White wedding' / 'Mega-Idol mix'
