Certain to be a Cashbox stiff, and as a result not currently found in the database, is this 1977 #36 Billboard-peaking chart entry. However, for any interested chart completists, my commercial 45 has a listed time of (3:58), but an actual time of (3:48). By chance, to obtain a different song on the disc, I recently bought the Varese V/A CD "Disco Classics", which also claimed to contain "Love In 'C' Minor (Part One)" on it. I was pleasantly surprised by this. There is no listed time for this track anywhere on the CD, but it has an actual time of (4:01). I was initially hoping it was the correct 45v, but it now seems certain, with a :13 second time difference, to be a "neither" version. I'm 99% sure I heard at least 3 less-than-perfect edits done, all during the last minute of my 45. For any curious researchers out there, I'd be happy to shoot out a vinyl dub of my 45, as a point of reference - I know I currently have at least one (6:00+) CD long version of it, as well.

my commercial 45 issued as cotillion 44215 lists the run time on the label as 3:58 but actually runs 3:48, just like jim's.....if you fade out the version on the below cd
Disco Classics Varese Sarabande 302066465
for 0:10 from 3:38-3:48 you will effectively re-create the true vinyl 45.....

Ed:
That disc is the same one Jim referenced above as including a "neither" version with three less than perfect edits. I'm not sure which of the two notes now is accurate.

Actually, if you re-read Jim's post, the edits he is referring to are on his 45. It doesn't look like he compared the CD's edits with the 45, but simply noted that the disc's actual time does not match the 45's actual time.

I guess the more accurate note would then be 45 version but 13 seconds longer, instead of "neither."
Also, does this mean the track on that CD matches every less-than-perfect edit on the vinyl 45?
