All i ment was before it was fashionable for dj's to be playing nothing but edit series. His Black Cock disco edits are extremly epnsive rare records now i suppose cause they came out before many labels started doing it. A thx for the timeline but francois k and larry levan and those legends never released edits. I believe it was their remixes that gave birth to the 12". Unless your saying there is no difference?
