+  Actually True Faith-94 (radio edit)
++ Said to be the mix used on CreamLive compilation, i.e. "Eschreamer Dub."
*  Turquoise outer sleeve with a cut out question mark and blue inner sleeve.
** A press sheet for NUOXDJ6 mentions that NUXXDJ6 contains the Eschreamer Mix
   and the Eschreamer Dub. However, the remixes were withdrawn and never
   released. This white label promo exists in 15 copies, and it may not be
   an official promo by London Records. It is said that these were made for
   Pete Tong and his friends.

Q: What is the difference between the True Faith from 1987 and True Faith-94?
A: Except for the new remixes, True Faith-94 is basically the same as the original version from 1987. However, Stephen Hauge, the producer, "cleaned" up the sound and the mixing of the song.

Q: I've heard about some withdrawn remixes of True Faith-94, what's the story?
A: [Antoine] "The sheet included in my NUOXDJ6 said that Baker rediscovered Let's Go with Barney as they were on vacation. The sheet mentions NUOX6 to contain Lionrock Full Throttle Mix + Vanelli Remix on side A and True Faiht Eschreamer Mix + Dub on side B, NUOXDJ6 to contain Lionrock Full Throttle Mix + Sparse'n'Fast Mix on side A and Vanelli Mix + Dub on side B, and NUXXDJ6 to contain True Faith Eschreamer Mix on side A and Eschreamer Dub on side B. The Escreamer mixes were remixed by Tall Paul.
A Tall Paul remix exists on the CD CreamLive. For some reason his remixes were recalled and never officially released.
An ad in Record Collector listed a white label testpress of True Faith 'white label test press 12" - only 15 existing copies - remixes by Tall Paul'."

Q: Is the catalogue number NUXXDJ6 then?
A: Well, for a while it was believed that the catalogue number was NUXXDJ6, same as the Nineteen63 promo, based on the press sheet. However, the actual catalogue number is TP-1-A for side A and TP-2-B for side B. This could mean that this white label promo is not released by London Records, but rather an unofficial release initiated by Pete Tong. This theory has not been confirmed.

Q: So, what about the acetate?
A: The acetate was cut by Master Room, the pressing house used by London Records, so it seems likely that London Records commissioned the acetate.
