cathy dennis "too many walls"

my cassingle issued as polydor 867134 states the version as the "radio mix" with a listed run time of 4:03 and runs 4:02....this cassingle run time info s/b added to the db.....

Maybe it was a different Cathy Dennis song, but I think it was TMW...TM Century GoldDiscs had a "Cathy's Mix" which we played at the AC I was at in 1993-4...your description of the "acapella" mix sounds kind of like this.

I know this song's parent album, "Move To This", was released in at least a few variations and my copy has the Single Version of "Too Many Walls" listed above. But I recently heard what I assume is the original album version running around 4:25 and I noticed what appears to be a drop-out at the 2:43 mark in the song on the word, "seem". Does anyone who has the original issue of the CD hear the same thing at the same point in the song? Just wanted to make sure it's not just me who's hearing it.

The version I heard is from the UK "Now That's What I Call Music" series, so if the original album doesn't have the drop out, I'm wondering if it might just be on that particular Now CD.

Just listening to this CD, and this is not the original LP version, sounds like the Radio Mix,
but slower, cause the drums are vastly similar to the Radio Mix. Perhaps the UK was serviced
it's own Radio Mix?

Is this the set that was produced by Cherry Red or possibly, Real Gone Music? I just checked my rip of this and can't seem to hear anything odd around the 2:43 mark.

Maybe your matrix numbers would help people spot the difference.

MJ,

I just pulled my CD copy of Now 20, UK off the shelf and listened and ripped it. For the record, it's CDS 79 8447 2 On the box. CDP 7 98449-2 on the actual CD #2.
I don't have the promo to compare, but the fade on this version seems to have a bit of silence involved. I stopped hearing content around 4:24 though the song tracks on to about 4:25.

Same for my Cathy Dennis (2CD Expanded Edition). It was a release on Cherry Red Records in the UK. I'm not sure of the numbers, because I can't seem to locate the CDs at the moment.

The only things I can add to this is that the Cherry Red CDs were a 2nd run if I am correct. The original run was in 2014, and maybe they fixed the glitch by 2022, when I purchased?

Sort-of the same thing for the NOW 20. The version I have has the artwork in a brown background and the text in a copper color. This didn't appear to be the same as
the image that popped up in my ripper. That one was more colorful, though it did say "NOW 20" and all the tracks seemed to match.

Before I post this, I'm going to take a look at your links to Discogs and see if they look the same. And, they do.
So, I'm still stumped about this glitch, because I simply am not hearing it on either copy I have.
