According to the database, DJ 45 copies of Alabama's "The Closer You Get" run 4:32 and 3:35. There are a handful of CD listings in the database where the song runs 4:29-4:31, so can anyone confirm if these discs do indeed consist of the long DJ version?

Although my stock "The Closer You Get" LP is made in Japan. I feel certain that the 45 version is "Edited Version" from the LP.
When I have deleted from 0:54 mark to 1:49 mark on the LP file, It is about the same as the commercial 45.
My Japanese LP's running time is (4:30). The acutual running time of the US commercial 45 is (3:34), the listed time is 3:35 (RCA PB-13524)
I think that the 45 version is able to make from the US "The Closer You Get" LP.

I have obtained the LP "ALABAMA - The Closer You Get" U.S. releases. This track on the U.S. LP is the same as the Japan product. Therefore, the CDs for this song should have the "LP version" or "45 version" comments on the database.

"The Closer You Get" LP version (The actual running time is (4:29)). The commercial 45 is edited down from 0:54 to 1:49 on the LP version. There is the lyric of "Could I be dreaming" at 0:57 ('til 0:59) on the 45.
