fDELUXE - YOU GOT WHAT YOU WANTED

fDeluxe released a limited edition single cover of the Ike & Tina Turner tune, 'You Got What You Wanted'.  I'm a stickler for singles.  I get super picky.  My main concern with singles is getting value for the money.  Especially when you consider how rare singles are in the US.  I consider value in a single when one of the following is present: 1) a b-side track not included on the album, 2) a reasonable number of mixes of the the featured track, or 3) unique material unavailable anywhere else.  This single basically fills all three areas of criteria for me.

Both 1 & 3 are covered with the title track.  'You Got What You Wanted' is a track not released on 'Gaslight' and it's a b-side of sorts.  2 is covered by three alternate versions of the song and an additional version of 'Drummers And Healers'.

fDeluxe's version of 'You Got What You Wanted' is quite funky and is performed as a duet between Susannah and St. Paul.  All the groove of 'Gaslight' is present here.  

The first track is the basic tune and it's wonderful.  Number 2 is an extended version of the number.  The third track is a true mix of the song.  It's very similar to the original but the arrangement is sparser.  The final track is the vocal track.  So basically, A Capella.  The last number is an extended mix of 'Drummers And Healers' one of the better tracks from 'Gaslight'.  

Basically, you can't go wrong with this release.  It's only available through fDeluxe's website, but do yourself a favor and order it now.  It's worth it.  My final words: A MUST HAVE RELEASE FROM AN INCREDIBLE GROUP!
