I've got Tommy's Blue Valentine on vinyl around here somewhere. I gave it one listen a few years back. Unfortunately my turntable is Not Working, so I've never had the opportunity to transfer it to a more portable format.

Pride of the Cross 7"/12"

Post Mon May 26, 2008 2:10 am

Just wondering if anybody knows if there's any difference between the Pride of the Cross 7" and the 12". Are they both "Tommy's Blue Valentine/Black Coffee" or are there different songs out there?

So size does not really matter after all.

To be fair if you get the picture sleeve versions the art work is different both front and back.So you do get some thing different for your money , all be it a non musical difference.
I like the 7" art work the best [not sure if this has a hidden meaning or not ].

Thanks. I'm guessing the 7" will be cheaper postage, so i'll try & buy that one.
