  Could be. I came across two alternate mixes of Kings and Queens, both in a dubby vein. Neither were marked as the Knaves Mix but my guess is that that title was conjured up by the marketing dept and that one of the se mixes would have been it.

    Hmmm, my usual cd-shop didn't have KJ4Beginners. Bloke couldn't even find it on his computer... =:o( 
    Speaking of unreleased mixes : will we ever get to hear the Knaves Mix of Kings And Queens? You know, that mysterious second 12"-mix that never made it onto vinyl. Is it lying in an EMI-vault somewhere?

    Why thankyou Alex. My sleevenotes pretty much just amount to a potted
    history of the band but, I hope, put across some of the themes I was hoping
    the comp would address. Verbose, me?

    Anyone else bought 4 beginners yet? If so what d'you think of the unreleased
    mixes etc.?

    Sorry I've not been around here a while. I just find that the less I'm
    around the less of a fool I show myself up to be!

    thoughts.....

    drum-driven, but l! acks the harried, messy edge of the version on
    REVELATIONS. There are some lyrical switcheroos as well.

    original. A great song is a great song is a great song.

    win new love from haterz like Our Rob Moss. A cleaner vocal can be heard.
    Slightly less obtrusive keybs. Lengthy bass intro is jettisoned.

    > - The Chris Kimsey mix of "Rubicon" boasts a sharper guitar sound, which
    we likes alot, we does.
    >
    > - The Colesy cover art is ace, of course, but the inner booklet artwork is
    simply the inverted image from the cover, and various details of the child's
    grinning, slightly sinister stare. Back cover is a close up of the child's
    brow & burning red eyeballs.

    EXTREMITIES on, personally. Not holding my breath, though.
