Please note this is NOT a BOOTLEG both items are factory pressed.As a LIFE LONG Was Not Was MADONNA Fan, all you MADONNA fans are now in for a treat and a surprise.....Time to update wikipedia as well. This was believed LOST forever ULTRA RARE and THE RAREST MADONNA 12" single TO EVER APPEAR, WITH her singing vocals uncredited on SHAKE YOUR HEAD (LETS GO TO BED) which is on the b side TO THE WAS (NOT WAS) 12" Single "Somewhere in America" - This is what is on Auction HereI am a LONG time Madonna and Was (not was) fan and collector and closely followed the story behind the MADONNA VOCALS (which are on this 12") with 100% certainty. I actually spoke to the FONTANA rep at the time that told me the story of how this 12" got withdrawn.READ CAREFULLY - What has previously been reported is incorrect and this clarifies the issue of the Missing MADONNA VOCALS on the song and how they came to be leaked on what was supposed to be a limited release which had to be withdrawn.The story goes that Shake Your Head (Let's Go To Bed) Madonna lead vocal recorded with Don and David Was for the Was (Not Was) album "Born To Laugh At Tornadoes" produced in Detroit 1982-83. The released vocal used was by Ozzy Osbourne with backing vocals by Kathy Kosins and Carol Hall. Madonna and John "Jellybean" Benitez are both in the album credits. During a May 2006 Kathy Kosins phone interview with Bruce Baron it was revealed that Ozzy recorded his vocal first. Kathy and Carol added vocals in Detroit. Kathy's vocals were intended to be replaced by Madonna by producer Don Was. Madonna's label Sire Records did not agree to the release and Kathy's vocal was restored for the ZE Records release as a backing track. Kathy then became a longtime Was (not Was) contributor. Madonna originally became involved via her firendship with Stephen Bray and his group Breakfast Club who were also signed with ZE Records (later acquired into MCA). Madonna requested that her original vocal not be used in an early 1990s remix released as a single in Europe to support a Was (Not Was) Greatest Hits album. Kim Basinger did the new vocals. There the story was thought to have ended................What i can now reveal EXCLUSIVELY is that for the Was (not was) ALTERNATIVE release SOMEWHERE IN AMERICA, STEVE SILK HURLEY was given the wrong basic vocal/acapella tracks for the remixand you guessed it!! He was given the Madonnas vocal for the remix and the STEVE SILK HURLEY remix on THIS 12" for auction has the MADONNA VOCAL on THIS VERSION ONLY. ITS ONLY on this 12" that you will hear MADONNAs VOCAL TRACK for SHAKE YOUR HEAD.This was PRESSED before the error was realised and the release subsequently withdrawn The 12" Single (this was to be an alternative 12" remix, not the standard issue it was common practise at one point to issue many formats of a release). There was also a PROMOTIONAL CD SINGLE that came as an advance and was issued to RADIO STATIONS ONLY, this CD is ALSO INCLUDED in this very rare auction!The ALTERNATIVE 12" (the one for auction) has the catalogue number WASX12, compared to WAS12, the standard release which DID NOT contain the Madonna vocalsTHIS 12" (the one I am auctioning) has MADONNA Singing the vocals on an EXCLUSIVE REMIX BY STEVE SILK HURLEY - SEE THE SLEEVE FOR THE PROCLAMATION ITS EXCLUSIVE.I can provide PROOF of THREE VERSIONS of the female lyric, for authenticity purposes, so feel free to email me for a CLIP which shows the three versions, one line, so you can tell them all apart. which are:1) The vocal by OZZY/KATHY KOSINS (from the album Born To Laugh At Tornadoes)2) The vocal as sung by OZZY/Kim Basinger (from the Hello Dad album)3) The vocal sung by OZZY/MADONNA from this 12" which was withdrawn and NEVER commerically releasedIt is the THIRD version which was mistakenly placed on this 12" single which i now produce for auctionFeel free to email for Proof/ evidence that the version on this 12" is actually MADONNA singing, as this 12" is worth a lot of money, I can send proof quite happily so you have a 100% GUARANTEE of what you are buying is the right thing.In addition you can follow the story here on the was not was website: http://worldwidewas.com/?p=35this is not like the crap Otto tracks madonna recorded early 1980's this is a superb dance track with her ORIGINAL vocals on it!the winner of the auction will receive BOTH the CD and the 12" Single.
