Last year I downloaded a stunning untitled remix of Get Ready with an intro similar to the live Finsbury version (orchestral/piano intro - female 'heeeeeey' vocals etc) It didn't stray too far from the original version but lasts for 6.50 minutes (approx). I have a feeling it wasn't a fan mix as it seemed too slick with some complex orchestral arrangements etc. Anyway, I've just bought the two commercial CD releases of Crystal and to my dismay both CD don't contain this mix (the mixes included are really depressingly pathetic). Does anyone know of the promos that may have been released that may have included the mix I described? I've just ordered Get Ready but don't imagine the version of Cystal on there is 6.50 minutes long? Anyway, a real shame that this mix wasn't commercially available.

You may have stumbled upon the ultra rare "Get Ready LP Version". This is the holy grail of New Order tracks. Treasure it.

Funny, but indeed, it is the album version, which is.. unavailable on all singles and clocks at 6:51

So go out and buy Get Ready... :D

Cheers for that. Got Get Ready Now but it differs from my mix so I guess it must be a fan effort. Listening to Get Ready now, other than the singles which are great - does anyone find it a bit weak? Electronic had better b-sides than most of the album tracks on here.

There has been 9999 mixes of Crystal done for the AcidPlanet contest, so it might be one of those.

The only one you don't have is the one available on Here To Stay...
