Tried to replicate the edit from the album version - bottom line is that it doesn't work.
I have the album version on:- Sounds Of The '90s - 1992 (Time-Life)
- No. 1 Hit Mix (Realm)
- 2 Awesome (PolyTel Canada)
All three of the above are most likely digital clones of the Jon Secada CD with a level change (all of their samples line up, and all can cancel down to dithering noise with a level change).
I have the edit on:- Hot Hits - Pop - Vol. 13
- Now That's What I Call Music 23 (UK; diff EQ than Hot Hits)
- Now 1992 (UK, released 1993)
- Top Hits USA RH13 (denoted as "English Edit"; sound not as good as all others listed)
You can come awfully close to matching the edit, so here are my instructions for coming close:
Keep the first 32 beats from 0:00.0-0:18.4.
Edit on true downbeat.
Remove the 24 beats from 0:18.4-0:32.1.
Keep 0:32.1-2:47.5.
Edit on snare.
Remove the 16 beats from 2:47.5-2:56.6.
Keep 2:56.6-3:56.1.
Here's where it breaks down - there's an 8-beat instrumental passage in the edit from 3:33-3:37; the corresponding passage is 24 beats long in the LP version, from 3:56 to 4:09, but it has vocals over it. I don't see how to edit it to use the right instrumental portion.
Keep 4:09-4:50 of LP version, with a 32-beat fade from 4:32-4:50.
Your mixdown would run 4:18, with edits at 0:18.5, 2:33.9, 3:33.4 and 3:37.6, with a 32-beat fade from 4:01 to 4:18. Close, but not quite.

The remix that radio played was by David Morales, but not sure if it's one of the mixes on the above mentioned CD singles. Does anyone remember?

Are you referring to the Dance Mix in the promo listed above?

On the Discogs page for the commercial US CD Maxi-Single, Track 4 (Dance Mix) has a notation of "Remix, Co-Producer, Percussion - David Morales".

I don't recall any stations in my area playing the nearly
6-minute dance mix. It was either the English edit or the
Radio Edit.

Yes! The remix sounded like the backing beat to Madonna's
"Erotica". Not sure if was the full Dance Mix or an
edit.

Just in case you were wondering....My 'Commercial' 45 RPM vinyl single, released as, "EMI Records Group, SBK Records S7-57881, CEMA Special Markets" has a listed time of 5:25 and runs 5:24.5. In the run-out wax it states 'Mastered by Capitol'. It also states on the label, FOR JUKEBOXES ONLY!, which was common in the early 90's. It was released on 8/25/1992. Just Another Day was in it's 19th week on the Billboard Hot 100! It was still floundering in the Top 10 when the vinyl was released. -Bill.

version of the promo CD?
