I did a closer comparison of the LP version and the 45/CD version, and noted the following differences:

The 45/CD mix has:

• additional keyboards on the intro
• no teletype noises in the break at 1:32 and 3:29
• a slightly longer delay on the vocal echo throughout the song
• a slightly different vocal take on the line "you don't really want to know just how far it's gone" at 3:00
• quieted or removed guitar chord on down beats during the verses at 1:57–2:14 and 2:55–3:13
• differently panned and slightly louder telephone ringer noise at 3:36 & 5:17–end.

I went ahead and added this info to Wikipedia.


@Jody Thornton - The countdown shows you heard the German 45 edit on must not have included American Top 40. Here is what they played:

• 1982-11-13: LP version, faded at 5:25
• 1982-11-20: 45 version, faded at 5:19
• 1982-11:27: LP version, faded at 5:17
• 1982-12-04: LP version edited at 2:14 to remove guitar solo & next verse, faded at 4:18
• 1982-12-11: LP version, faded at 5:22
• 1982-12-18: LP version edited at 2:14 to remove guitar solo & next verse, faded at 4:28
• 1983-01-08: LP version, faded at 5:30
• 1983-01-15: LP version edited at 2:14 to remove guitar solo & next verse, faded at 4:28 (1st play) & 4:12 (2nd play)
• 1983-01-22: LP version edited at 2:14 to remove guitar solo & next verse, faded at 4:23
• 1983-01-29: LP version edited at 2:14 to remove guitar solo & next verse, faded at 4:29
• 1983-02-05: LP version edited at 2:14 to remove guitar solo & next verse, faded at 4:23
• 1983-02-12: LP version edited at 2:14 to remove guitar solo & next verse, faded at 4:17
• 1983-12-31: 45 version edited at 1:37 to remove 2 verses & guitar solo, faded at 4:00

I assume their edits were done in-house. The LP edit removes 0:48, and the 1983 year-end edit removes 1:18.

Aaron,

Any chance you have the info on Jim's German Short 45? I wanted to go from unknown in my file system to where it actually came from.

I remember this mix as well, but I found this Global News YouTube promo that used it. It sounds like the mix.

Waited for someone to mention this, but no one did.

The LP version, besides not having the subtle keyboard
overdub at the beginning and softer telephone rings
toward the end, has another noticeable difference:
instead of just the washing machine sound at 1:34, the
teletype machines can also be heard.

After the original LP version was gradually phased out
of existence, I began to wonder if I'd just imagined
it because I hadn't heard it since I bought the
cassette in the '80s.

I always thought this would have been a great song for
a remix, but I guess Henley didn't come around to
remixes until All She Wants To Do Is Dance.

If anyone has a HQ dub of the original LP version, let
me know.]]> Wed, 21 Jul 2021 23:52:41 +0000 https://top40musiconcd.com/forum/forum_posts.asp?TID=854&PID=58703&title=don-henley-dirty-laundry#58703 https://top40musiconcd.com/forum/forum_posts.asp?TID=854&PID=53277&title=don-henley-dirty-laundry#53277 Author: garye

It is a custom edit. Wish I knew who did it.
The download did not say where it was from.
Probably something similar to a TM service, but not
them.]]> Sun, 12 Jan 2020 13:21:54 +0000 https://top40musiconcd.com/forum/forum_posts.asp?TID=854&PID=53277&title=don-henley-dirty-laundry#53277 https://top40musiconcd.com/forum/forum_posts.asp?TID=854&PID=53276&title=don-henley-dirty-laundry#53276 Author: eriejwg

Can you find a matching listing on discogs for it?]]> Sat, 11 Jan 2020 10:56:46 +0000 https://top40musiconcd.com/forum/forum_posts.asp?TID=854&PID=53265&title=don-henley-dirty-laundry#53265
