Various Artists Mixology: Sam Records Extended Play Different versions USA/UK?

[jack020]

I noticed that there are 2 versions of this title:
a USA version released aug.14,2012 and a UK version on Harmless to be released aug.20, 2012.

Are they the same version or does the USA version has shorter tracks?
Any info?

In the description oof this set on AMAZON UK it reads;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;

"Containing 13 brand new scintillating re-edits of key Sam classics by Soul Clap, 6th Borough Project, Todd Terje, Maxxi Soundsystem, Jacques Renault, Andy Ash, Prince Language, Walker & Royce, Runaway, Clinton Houlker, Bonar Bradberry, Volta Bureau & Catz N Dogz plus a 1 hour continuous mix by the compiler, Jacques Renault, Mixology: Sam Records Extended Play is a fascinating example of how well the Sam releases have held up over the last 30 years."

I have a problem with the use of the word "ORIGINAL"

These tracks are not the same as the original 12" releases. They are re-edits of the original tracks. It's an interesting project....but as a former DJ when the originals were released in 77-82 , I would have to hear it first before I would buy it. Vintage original pressings of SAM 12"s are rare and expensive. The masters for them may be lost or tied up in legal issues. Mr Sam Weiss was one of the last "OLD SCHOOL" independent lable owners from as far back as the 50's.


Also...Who is Jacques Renault ????
