It is unofficial but it is a nice item, put together with some care. Nothing on it you can't get elsewhere though.

Hey all. I've had some time at work recently to browse thru the PSB stuff on Discogs and while I have seen some pretty nice looking bootleg "promo" CD singles, this one kinda stuck out: Pet Shop Boys ‎– Left To My Own Devices/I Want A Dog (Frankie Knuckles Mixes) - https://www.discogs.com/Pet-Shop-Boys-L ... e/13093571

I'm aware that track #1 is legit, but since there are no times listed for the other ones, I'm wondering if those are legit versions or a remix service / fan created one. Any ideas?

I guess I need to peruse Wayne's site as I wasn't aware of these versions. I'm pretty up on my knowledge of demos and unreleased tracks, but I guess knowledge of these songs passed right by me. Thanks for the info!

Cette édition n'est pas sur la discographie. Les Specialty Records et une marque blanche WEA le sont, mais il s'agit d'une troisième et différente édition. n'en faites pas un bootleg alors peut-être que la liste n'est pas une si mauvaise idée?

Had to share this as it's so laughable. Looks like they've taken a pic of the boys on a wooden table then photo-shopped it onto a clear disc. Apparently this is 'very hard to find', maybe as it's a blatant fake.

Click on any of the records also listed by that seller, the record picture changes, but the background doesn't. :lol:

The George Michael one is hilarious!
