Didn't make the top 40, but in Sony's continuing series of Daryl Hall catalog reissues, they've released a digital EP of his single "I Wasn't Born Yesterday" with several different mixes on it:
I Wasn't Born Yesterday

What on earth did I do? That was supposed to be a post about his single "I Wasn't Born Yesterday." Too early, not enough coffee yet.

Thanks for the heads up, Brian and Aaron!
Have to say this reissue campaign has been such a pleasant surprise. I
guess the current state of affairs between Hall and Oates has reignited
Daryl’s interest in his solo catalog.

Great to see all these Daryl Hall mixes released digitally, after all these years. One of the first things I did was compare the digital EP 7" version of I Wasn’t Born Yesterday to the music video (and my 45), and it is indeed the single version.
That said, one minor thing - the digital EP shaves off some audio from both the beginning fade-in and the end fade-out. Not too much though - it shortens the fade-in by about half a second, and the fade-out ends just under a second early. It also runs a tiny bit faster than the video and the 45, which are about the same in terms of speed and duration. The durations of each:
UK 45 - 4:11.509
Video - 4:11.872
Digital EP - 4:09.891
I pitch-shifted the official video up 5 cents and it stayed in sync with the EP version, though its fadeout was still longer by .762 seconds. Still - really happy these are finally available.

On this EP there's also:
Dreamtime (Arthur Baker Remix)
with a legnth of 7:05,
but it's shorter than the "Extended Remix Version" from 1986.

This week's Daryl Hall EP release is "I'm in a Philly Mood," with the single edit. Doesn't seem to be on Qobuz yet (sometimes they're late), but it's on 7Digital:

I've always loved Daryl's solo work and this song really takes me back. When his next album "Can't Stop Dreaming" was released, I was working at Sears and they played the title track, along with "Cab Driver","Let Me Be The One"and "What's in Your World." Just a great album start to finish.
