Heaven 17 - Play to Win 12" [B.E.F. Disco Mix]

[MrBaggy69]

bands like Heaven 17, Human League & Duran Duran were awesome at extending their songs with extra bits and pieces i had both penthouse & pavement and the luxery gap on tape cassette (copied of course..!) back in the day when my friend gave them to me im still amazed at some of the lyrics eve today

[cullyvan]

Fantastic Album. Penthouse (new Heaven 17 songs) and Pavement (leftover old human league material). I'm still not sure if the whole thing was an ironic and cynical stab at the charts because its clearly all thatcherite and the clearly werent. Some people didnt "get" it, but still got it. No chance of music being produced this way ever again. Anyway cheers.

[mappam]

@0x51d you have a sexy arm. The way you gently place the needle in the groove is enough to make a viewer's heart flutter.

[0x51d]

@mappam: Thanks, I guess. :)

[chalklava]

@mappam That's pretty funny!!! I think you made 0x51d a bit uneasy, but still....lol.

[nadoanacleto]

The best synth!

[wmrxb15]

Bangin Tune - Top Banana !!!

[tailagent]

I discovered this song back in the day when i saw one of my fave films: SUMMER LOVERS. It's on the vinyl soundtrack (which still hasn't been released on CD). Thanks for posting this wonderful extended version.

[drtune]

To me this track is all about John Wilson's rhythm + bass guitar.

You could just have two tracks of him and the drum machine and it'd be amazing.

So, so good

[manweller1]

Tune!!

[GaelaMorgana]

How Come They Don't Have The Version (Remix) From The Sliver Soundtrack, That Version Kicked A**/Culo/Arsch/Arse! (Rofllmao)!

[chapoid]

Awesome mix 5 stars !!

[manweller1]

Thanks for uploading this.

[gillyh2745]

£1.49......you lucky, lucky man!!

[dilshad57]

@gillyh2745 got this last year in oxfam for 99p  on 12"

[gillyh2745]

@dilshad57 Nice one!. It's amazing what you can find in charity shops and other cheap outlets. a while back I managed to find a very limited edition cassette copy of the Heaven 17 remix album "Endless", complete with the housing box, fold out sleeve notes and other bits for a mere 50p!

[dilshad57]

@gillyh2745 Endless was the 1st CD I ever owned. Got a CD player off my folks for Christmas back in 1986 and my big sister bought me Endless, still got it now.

[kingkandy]

[Q3ToPBuZz]

I just dug out my Penthouse and Pavement album coz of this.Man I worshiped this band when I was younger.

[macintosser]

Penthouse and Pavement is a cracking album... nothing out there was ever quite like it... very edgy... chrome-plated funk... totally ahead of anything that was around at the time... I still play it... and I adore it...

Oh, and Heaven 17 are playing in Berlin this month... just around the corner from where I live... and I am ever so chuffed!

[telboyofpeckham]

One of the best ever songs. H17 were super talented. Just love this video but why no HD version?

[TheNaomiengland]
