Talk about Elvis Costello And The Attractions - Blood & Chocolate


Priotian
The original Imp CD and LP have differing mixes of Uncomplicated. The LP one has a sound effect at 0:44 (illustrating "A horse that knows arithmetic"), reverb whenever EC sings "It's in your eyes", and extra guitar part from 2:30 to the end, and a longer fade-out. Any info on which mix is used on CD reissues?
