There i was all excited to see a Swept Away expanded set in my local 2nd hand record store got home excited to hear "Fight For it' & "Touch By Touch" extended mixes [[a track ive always loved)..then disaster !!..the sequencing of the tracks is all messed up on disc two.. how did funky town grooves ever let such a shoddy finished product be put out there ? have they done a secound batch and fixed all the mistakes ?
How many mistakes were there? I bought the cd when it was first released. I do see some discrepancies in timings on a couple of the TOUCH MY TOUCH selections but everything seemed to be where it is labeled to be.
Hi Reese my copy dosent play "Fight For It" and seems to have timing mistakes on most tracks from memory I only listened once i was so disapointed... back in the day labels would make an "test pressing" of scheduled releases as they once did acetate vinyl pressing to test the finished product i doubt its done these days
I only noticed two mistakes on my copy—the single mix and LP mix of Missing You are swapped as well as the Touch By Touch confusion. Fight For It plays perfectly on my CD...Quote:

The items on my copies as the same as Johnny B described, with FIGHT FOR IT playing fine. Aside from the mistaken timings / versions, it sounds like you just have a defective copy.Quote:

hi Thommg - no scratch it plays about 4 secs of "Fight For It' then the whole cd finishes
I have this CD since it was first released. No problem with my “Fight for It”.
I've been looking for threads like these. I recently bought the original Diana Ross album from Barnes and Noble and the track list was wrong. I ordered another one, and it's still wrong, but it's only off by one song. The last one was like you hit random on your cd player. There are supposedly issues with the Silk Electric reissued album, also.
