BOC: bad master on Burning For You

OK, here we go. 'Cult Classic', Fragile Records CDFRL 003, "manufactured in
the EEC". Listen to 'Burning For You' (although the original release was
credited _Burnin'_) at 02:37. It's very clear, Buck is starting to sing the
second chorus, and he sings 'and I-I'm burning I'm burning I'm burning for
you'. First I thought there was something wrong with the disc, but two
friends of mine had the same problem on 02:37.

Only one of them has found the Burning For You CD single, so he has the
correct version on disc.

I'll find out what's wrong exactly with 'Secret Treaties'. I haven't got the
"incorrect" version.

Please let us know when you have found out! :-)
