For future item.

Cd single: Wasting Love 1992. Super rare single pressed just in Holland. 4 tracks.

This is the super rare and very expensive to get a hold on, Wasting Love single. In fact this single was only released in Holland, but they stop the pressings just after two weeks of release, so, nowadays its very difficult and expensive to have one, prepare to give no less than 70 Euros for it!!
The Cd is great and unique, brings a different cover that we are used to, and has some rare live tracks recorded at Wembley Arena Show, December 1990.

Songs are:

Wasting Love, I think its edited version
