The actual commercial 45 run time for Carole King's "One Fine Day" is 2:29, not 2:30 as stated on the record label. (This info comes courtesy of Jim a.k.a. "jimct".) The reason I post this information is because all three of the song's CD appearances in the database run 2:26. This makes me wonder if we have another situation where the LP length is slightly shorter than the 45. Does anyone have Carole King's vinyl LP Pearls: Songs of Goffin and King from 1980 on the Fame label who can report the run time of "One Fine Day"?

Always happy to help you out when asked, Todd, and great job on the detailing by you, as always. Just one quick note: Carole King's 1980 LP, "Pearls: Songs Of Goffin And King" was issued as Capitol 12073, not the mainly-from-the-60's "Fame" label you noted above. I believe that Fame's label operations had ceased by the mid-to-late 70's. To my recollection, the only "Fame" of note, back in the year 1980, was the hit movie starring Irene Cara! :)

BTW, the Pearls LP has been out on a domestic CD now since Feb. 2012. I haven't picked it up yet (I see it is not in Pat's database yet either), but the track listing does include her hit version of One Fine Day. It's on Rockingale Records (Concord Music Group).

Well, as coincidence would have it, I bought that CD last week. "One Fine Day" runs 2:32 according to iTunes, but it appears to fade out around 2:28 to my ears.

The actual LP running time is (2:29), the printed time is "2:30" on the LP record label. (title "Pearls - Songs Of Goffin And King" Capitol SOO-12073)
The LP is identical to the commercial 45. (Capitol 4864)

Just FYI, from my notes...
This appears on Priority's Eighties Greatest Rock Hits
Vol. 12 Singers Songwriters (1994), which is one of
the rare Priority discs that sounds good. This one
actually sounds great, since I think it's all digital
clones from existing, earlier CDs. Should be really
cheap nowadays.
There's a digital clone of the Priority disc on Time-
Life's 2-CD Singers And Songwriters Vol. 13 1979-
1989 (2001; 1.454 dB quieter) This set is also
mostly (entirely?) digital clones from existing, earlier
CDs.
