I've been researching this one today... Other than the length, are there any differences between the LP version and the 45? I can't
tell any difference but I wanted to ask the experts on this board in case I'm missing something.
I have the "LP Version" on "The Greatest of the Guess Who" (3746-2-R). If I start playback at 1:15.75 I seem to have a version whose
length is around 3:50.5 that matches the 45. I will note that my version ends maybe 1 second earlier than the 45 (ends on "chick"
while the 45 goes a couple of notes past that). Insignificant in my opinion.
On YouTube, I see videos as follows:
MA Ham - 3:50 or 3:51, slight pitch correction
WABCRADIO - 3:51 Promo, no pitch
Dr. Kombat - 3:52 reissue, no pitch
Of course, I am estimating the time based on the video which could be a second or so off since I am just eyeballing it.
In the DB, I see single versions ranging from 3:47-3:51 with the majority of them 3:50 or 3:51.
Thank you

I could be wrong, but I think the 45 version removes the
first 1:15 or so of the LP version.

Anything running shorter than 3:51 just fades out earlier.
