Scooped a clean copy of this LP with a toxic mold sleeve in a collection yesterday. Will pay or trade fair for a clean empty sleeve or a clean sleeve/wrecked LP copy.Thanks!
Why is it worth more - I was pretty sure they're exactly the same mix, right? I can't imagine the press being *that* much louder. And you get more songs on the LP!

The 12' version has a longer intro than the LP version. Take a listen.

12" usually have extended versions or alternate mixes (some times by renown DJ's or remixers), are louder crispier sounding and might even include an instrumental or dub on the flip side.

People that collect 12"s don't care about more songs, specially when the main interest is that one banger or hit that came out on 12".
I know that's what's behind 12" collecting - but in this case I can't understand it. I don't think the pressing's any louder or crisper, I'm pretty sure the mix is identical and it's backed with Virgo Princess, not an instrumental or anything unique! That's why I could never justify buying the 12" for more than the LP *in this case*. Another case in point - 'The Brothers' - Don't Stop Now LP. It seems to be much cheaper to get hold of than the 12" of "Under The Skin'. Again - identical mix on each record, and some killer tracks on the LP that you don't get with the 12". In that case, it's the album for me every time.

That and it's worth 4 times the amount helps.
Really?

It's certainly a nicer sound on 12" than dynaflex vinyl!
But I'm pretty sure it's the same mix on the 12" as the LP
Here's someone's chance to get it cheap.
