According to the database, CD appearances containing Rufus Thomas' "Walking the Dog" have a run time ranging from 2:27 to 2:34. This is a fairly wide range, so I'm wondering if here is a case where perhaps the LP length and 45 length may differ slightly?

Thank you, Jim and Pat! Looks like the 45 and LP times are roughly the same and fall right in the middle of the run time ranges on CD. Perhaps a note should at least be made in the database for the actual and printed 45 run times since they differ by :03, according to Jim's findings. I guess it wouldn't hurt to list the stated and actual LP run times too, but of course this is all entirely up to Pat.
