| I am wondering if it will be something like Todds "No world order" album.I liked what he did there.And no one has confirmed that 2 out of 3 will have a full dance mix.It only says most tracks.Given the range of styles that todd has worked in it could anything I didnt mind Nikki french and her dance version of total eclipse and bonnie's version of 2 out 3 wasnt bad.I mean it wasnt enough to have me shouting from the roof tops but it was ok.Any idea when this album is due?It did have a september 13th release date > I personally prefer the masters own dance versions.
