Ed my copy runs about 4:27 and has matrix number G7166F-61874-S and then another matrix number of G-7126-AS 1D. Whenever anyone notices a different running time from what is posted in the database please include the matrix number information etched in the vinyl which will help immensely in determining if there are multiple pressings of a 45.

By the way Ed, you never did respond to Jim's post from March 4, 2016 regarding the matrix number found on your pressing of South Street by the Orlons. Could you please respond to his request?

My Gordy 7126 mono/stereo promo has listed times of (5:30) and actual
times of (4:26) (with the last second or two of both sides quite crackly.)

Stereo side promo 45 deadwax: "C7126F-61874-S-2", then "triangle
90694", then "1302311-07A".

Mono side promo 45 deadwax: "G7126F-61874-M-2", then "triangle
90695", then "1320231107B".

My Gordy 7126 stock 45 copy has a listed time of (5:30), an actual time of
(4:25), and most of the deadwax info ("1302311-16A" and "G7126F") has
a single line through it - the only no-line-through-it info is the 2nd part
of the 2nd string: "-61874-S".

As is so often the case with Motown & associated labels deadwax info,
and unlike most other labels, the more deadwax info we submit, the more
confused we seem to become!     :)
