It's a much-later re-recorded version.

It seems there are two versions which run 5:04. One is the familiar album version to me, from which the 45 version was derived. The other is a much different, rougher mix, and it is not based on the Club Mix. It is on some Dutch compilations (Arcade label) going back to at least 1992.

Do any of you know the origin of this mix? Was it released anywhere else?]]> Fri, 30 May 2025 22:31:04 +0000 https://top40musiconcd.com/forum/forum_posts.asp?TID=1550&PID=66847&title=commodores-nightshift#66847 https://top40musiconcd.com/forum/forum_posts.asp?TID=1550&PID=53822&title=commodores-nightshift#53822 Author: AutumnAarilyn

I'm sorry. It's not the edit but the full club mix
clocking in at around 7 minutes. I don't think the edit
is on cd. My bad for not being clear.

Yes, I have the single disc, and it sounds excellent. Earlier today, I was
able to edit the full Club Mix to match the Radio Edit. Also, a
commercial 12” was issued in the US with the exact same mixes as the
promo 12”:

They never “did away” totally with board ops—but it was sometime in
the 1970s that jocks were allowed to run their own board.]]> Mon, 23 Mar 2020 05:42:33 +0000 https://top40musiconcd.com/forum/forum_posts.asp?TID=1550&PID=53796&title=commodores-nightshift#53796
