Will Rox Box have DFS and IMHBL mix versions?

If you look at the tracklisting for standard Hits CD it has DFS (Chris Lord-Alge Mix) and IMHBL (Humberto Gatica Mix). But the Rox Box doesnt state which song versions these are. Do you think this is a mistake or will we just get the normal versions of these songs on the Rox Box?

What’s the point in paying to someone for a remix that sounds exactly as the original version?

@arnie:
The “original” version is from 1987, and there are some significant differences in the arrangement and mix. I think there were just some additional recordings for the 1990-vs made by Rox & co, and the final mix then was done by HG. So there is no other (or no “original”) 1990-Version available then this Pretty-Woman-Mix.

it is true that there are significant differences between IMHBL 1987 and 1990 versions. but it´s strange they never before mentioned humberto in the latter release. so why do they mention it now if it is just the version we all know/have? is it to confuse people only?

Yes...there indeed are differences between 87 and 90 version, the intros different (longer), the piano break sounds different, oh yeah, and the one word...

I thought that IMHBL had been re-recorded. Thanks for your comments

They are the normal versions DFS C L-A Mix is the US Mix, and HG mix of IMHBL is the Pretty Woman version. Sorry. They are the common or garden variety versions
