Great analysis of both songs. It's nice that someone delves into something a lot of people (like myself) have a strong relationship with, yet is buried so deep in pop history.

Really appreciate this Propaganda – info and d/l. Loads of good 12" around in those days from the more enlightened who saw the chance to 'expand and enhance' as opposed to filling the vinyl with repetition.
The extended 9m00s version of "Smalltown Boy" is on many compilations, I think? One place is on the 3xCD compilation "so80s Volume 2 – Presented By Blank & Jones".

Bronkski album was a real goody in its day.
Bookmarked your site.

Is the Das Testament Des Mabuse a vinyl rip?
Or is it from the 1980s Japanese CD single?
Thanks as ever for the illuminating info!
Mike – it's from the CD; thanks for the comment!
