Rock Me Tonite by Billy Squier has a length distinction according to the
database. Does anybody know the start point for the fade on the 45?
Looks like the video used the LP length, so my search for an online
guide via YouTube has been fruitless.

Thanks in advance.

I used the Best Of 16 Strokes CD as my source, and added a 32-beat fade from 3:46 to 4:08.

When I did this a number of years ago, I listed it as "probably 45 length", so it's not clear if I was working from a needledrop of the 45 to get these fade points.

Still, the 3:46 point is a good starting point until you can get a more definite answer.

Thank you.

Your post raises a good point...

I asked about the start point for the fade, but I suppose the database has
never confirmed the actual length of the 45. The database says that the 45
has a listed time of 4:07 (3:67), but there is no actual time listed. Has anybody
ever timed this 45 to confirm when it actually ends?

Unfortunately, I don't have it.
