The Brief:
Ever heard the term “supergroup”? Well, The Firm were the epitome of the term. The band was made up of former Free and Bad Company singer Paul Rodgers, ex-Led Zeppelin guitarist Jimmy Page, ex-Uriah Heep and Manfred Mann’s Earth Band drummer Chris Slade and bass player Tony Franklin. The band only released two albums: ‘The Firm’ and ‘Mean Business’. The lead single from ‘The Firm’ was “Radioactive” which is presented here in an extended “Special Mix” from its UK 12″ release.

Cool, this is new to me. Thanks for the rip, djrp!
I thought this would be a bigger hit given it’s supergroup credentials, and never knew about a 12″ mix…Thanks Richie!
This was also released in America,but the radio only played the album version.
