"Manon" ("New" version)

I was just wondering if anyone has a decent quality MP3 of the "new" version of "Manon". The only place to find this is the "Master of the Universe" 12" single because the "old" version that features on "Imminent 4" was placed on the "Masters of the Universe" compilation.

How long is this version of the song?

As far as I remember it is the same as the original and follows the same structure. The main difference is that some of the vocals were re-recorded.

Jarvis: "I'd got a Serge Gainsbourg album, which had a track called "Manon". It's not the same tune but, being naïve, I thought "Manon" was a man's name. In the end, I found out it was a woman's name! Again, I spoil it by speaking in French towards the end, which is embarrassing. The version on the "Imminent 4" compilation is different - we remixed it infinitesimally."

It seems, these words about this re-recording case?

It's supposed to be as follows:
Imminent 4 - Old version
Master of the Universe single - New version
Masters of the Universe compilation - New version

but, an error must have been made somewhere along the line meaning:
Imminent 4 - Old version
Master of the Universe single - New version
Masters of the Universe compilation - Old version

I have listened to all three of these and can confirm that the versions on "Imminent 4" and "Masters of the Universe" are definitely the same. The one on the single is different.

Oh, I found one difference:
Old version: 3:33
New version: 3:18
Maybe look on this basis?

I have a near mint copy of the Master Of The Universe 12". Next time I have my turntable hooked up, I'll do an mp3.

You can download the 12" version of Manon (and Silence, and the Caf My Legendary Girlfriend tracks for good measure) here:

http://www.sendspace.com/file/ohor6i

But don't thank me, thank the lovely Lisa, who some of you may remember as editor of the ancient Pulp fanzine Jammy Jezzabelle.

Whoa, thank you Lisa and Sturdy. I've been trying to get that Caff single without going broke for years. Maybe I'll actually finish my Pulp blog now.

Thanks. I know there's not a great deal of difference but this version is better.

Oh, missed this!! the sendspace link is dead, I'd hugely appreciate it if someone would re-up them (sendspace, or megaupload, or radpishare, doesn't matter), I have been looking for these mp3's for years also...

All gone. Any chance of a reupload?  I'd be very grateful.
