An exclusive edit was recently reissued by Expansion on 7" alongside the group's 1980 album "Ladies Of The Eighties", but the appetite remains for the full length version of "Turned On To You" on 12" single.In 1982 and of course Sylvia recorded a solo project "Give Me Your Love" (also reissued by Expansion) for Uno Melodic.
