my commercial 45 states the run time on the label as 2:18
and does indeed run that length and is an early fade of the
2:23 version on my cd titled as 'the very best of' on emi
98830....you'll need to fade for 0:03 from 2:15 to 2:18 to
match the vinyl 45...this run time info s/b added to the
db...

I noticed all CD versions outside the DES stereo from Eric do not have the reverb. Anyone know where to find this huge hits correct 45 version on CD?

I've never found it with the 45 reverb. It's possible that
the reverb was added live as the 45 was being cut and it
doesn't exist on tape.

It's definitely dry on the mono LP.

Can anyone point me to where this is mono on CD? Or it only came out in stereo that way?

Well, it's mono on most CDs, but, like Gary Bonds's "School
is Out," it's never been issued on CD with the reverb that
is on the 45.

I take it the 45 prof has it on his youtube channel?

He does:

Mr. Blue 45 dub

You know, I had said earlier in the thread that the "Diner" soundtrack version has "far less" reverb than the 45, but now, listening to the 45Prof's dub, I'm not so sure. I know that EQ
and compression can affect the way that reverb sounds. Maybe that accounts for it? Maybe someone else can give their opinion? I have the "Diner" soundtrack if anyone needs to listen.

I ran across a file that Mark Matthews did a few years ago where he tried to recreate the 45 reverb, but it's not right... there's too much reverb on there.

Guys, be careful with The45Prof's posts. If he states "transferred from 45",
then he has done so. Even with that, sometimes the transfer is from a
promo and not a commercial 45 - there were a few like that where I've
contacted him with anomalies and he has reposted.

Anyway, the post for Mr. Blue is from 5 years ago. In those earlier posts, he
did not always use a 45 dub, and he did not state whether or not he did.
After a while, he DID start using 45s, and stated so. Some of his posts say
"CD source" also.

So I believe this not to be a 45.

There IS another post on YouTube that is definitely from vinyl, but it doesn't
show it playing. There IS reverb on there, so maybe we can assume it's the
45.

Check it out, Brian, and report back. I have Mark's dub that maybe
compares to this YouTube one (no time to check for a while).
