Has anyone seen the early fade on CD or just the longer LP
version as on the Rhino "Best Of" disc listed in the
initial post? ]]> Wed, 29 May 2013 20:01:26 +0000 https://top40musiconcd.com/forum/forum_posts.asp?TID=1329&PID=37826&title=latimoresomethin-bout-cha#37826 https://top40musiconcd.com/forum/forum_posts.asp?TID=1329&PID=30097&title=latimoresomethin-bout-cha#30097 Author: edtop40

my commercial 45 issued glades 1739 states a run time on the label as 3:42 but actually runs 3:45 and is just and early fade of the full length 4:50 cd/lp version....]]> Sat, 07 May 2011 09:31:02 +0000 https://top40musiconcd.com/forum/forum_posts.asp?TID=1329&PID=30097&title=latimoresomethin-bout-cha#30097 https://top40musiconcd.com/forum/forum_posts.asp?TID=1329&PID=15652&title=latimoresomethin-bout-cha#15652 Author: Brian W.

Only up to a certain date, Grant. Cash Box began incorporating airplay we think sometime in the early-to-mid 1970s. Haven't found an exact date yet, but the evidence points to '74 or '75.

Though the chart dropped the notation "does not include airplay reports" in 1968, Cash Box's year-end charts still refered to the chart as "Top 100 Bestselling Singles" through 1974.

Beginning with the 1975 year-end chart, it simply said "Compiled from the Cash Box Top 100 charts." And by the late '70s, the chart began including a "greatest gainer airplay" notation each week.

However, another difference is that Billboard began incorporating singles sales to jukebox dealers in 1972, due to declining retail singles sales. For that reason, some people feel the Cash Box charts are more accurate around this time period.

What was the difference between Cash Box and Billboard?
Many of my "older" co-workers claimed that Billboard's charts were sometimes just "hype".
Was Cash Box more accurate?
I know it may be the wrong place to ask this question, but I'd like to know.

Thanks.]]> Sat, 26 Apr 2008 06:43:40 +0000 https://top40musiconcd.com/forum/forum_posts.asp?TID=1329&PID=15637&title=latimoresomethin-bout-cha#15637 https://top40musiconcd.com/forum/forum_posts.asp?TID=1329&PID=15629&title=latimoresomethin-bout-cha#15629 Author: jimct

John, you are correct. Chris was a top DJ for WIXY back in the station's Top 40 heyday, and he's a great guy to boot!]]> Fri, 25 Apr 2008 20:12:47 +0000 https://top40musiconcd.com/forum/forum_posts.asp?TID=1329&PID=15629&title=latimoresomethin-bout-cha#15629 https://top40musiconcd.com/forum/forum_posts.asp?TID=1329&PID=15627&title=latimoresomethin-bout-cha#15627 Author: eriejwg

My commercial 45 has a listed time of (3:42), but an actual time of (3:45). FYI, the version of this song that appears on the Rhino Greatest Hits CD that Chris references in his initial post runs (4:54), which I assume to be the original LP version's length.
