[1983] Jacqui Brookes - Lost Without Your Love [L33-1153]

A1: Lost Without Your Love - 5:41
B1: Lost Mix (Muzak Superior) - 5:17

This is the 1984 US promo 12" (MCA L33-1153), ripped to 16/44.1 FLAC in July 2010.

Much like with "Haunted Cocktails", some releases of "Lost Without Your Love" were credited to Intro, and later ones to Intro's singer Jacqui Brookes. Although still New Wavey, it edges more toward mainstream pop than "Haunted Cocktails", both lyrically and musically.

The long version on side A is only mildly remixed as compared to the album, while the instrumental remix on the B-side is a bit more of a departure; it quickly ascended to one of my all-time favorite New Wave dance tracks after I first heard it in The Beat Broker's fantastic 80's Street Gang Anthems DJ mix.
