Was this mix really necessary? The hack who did this edit should be shot! (I keed, I keed!). But seriously, this re-edit is so bad. They basically took out all the Spanish
words. It should be called The Less Spanish Edit, as it really does't have additional English lyrics/vocals.

AWFUL.

There additional U.K. mixes by none other than Joey Negro, but they do not even appear on the U.K. CD Maxi, just the U.K. Vinyl Maxi.

Thanks, Ed. Am I correct that the single version (a.k.a. the "Spanglish Version") is identical to the album version?]]> Thu, 08 Mar 2012 10:58:32 +0000 https://top40musiconcd.com/forum/forum_posts.asp?TID=1567&PID=33171&title=gerardo-rico-suave#33171 https://top40musiconcd.com/forum/forum_posts.asp?TID=1567&PID=33167&title=gerardo-rico-suave#33167 Author: edtop40

i just listened to my cassingle which has listed the
"spanish version" as the first track and the "spanglish
version" as the second track......the "spanish version"
contains some english......while the "spanglish version"
contains NO english......go figure......could this possibly
be the first cassingle to be mislabeled?]]> Wed, 07 Mar 2012 22:10:03 +0000 https://top40musiconcd.com/forum/forum_posts.asp?TID=1567&PID=33167&title=gerardo-rico-suave#33167 https://top40musiconcd.com/forum/forum_posts.asp?TID=1567&PID=33145&title=gerardo-rico-suave#33145 Author: Todd Ireland

The database contains the DJ CD single info for Gerardo's "Rico Suave". As a supplement, I thought I'd also report that, according to Ed (a.k.a. edtop40), the lead track on the cassette single has an actual run time of 4:09. And as Paul C points out, this is the "Spanglish Version" (which I believe is also the album version) and not the "Spanish Version" as stated on the cassette single sleeve. Meanwhile, the "Spanish Version", which is incorrectly labeled as the "Spanglish Version" has an actual run time of 4:17.

The U.S. cassette single claims that the "Spanish Version" is the lead track and the "Spanglish Version" is the second track (both tracks appear on each side), but this is not correct. The "Spanglish Version" is in fact the first track and the "Spanish Version" is the second track. ]]> Thu, 22 Jan 2009 16:13:03 +0000 https://top40musiconcd.com/forum/forum_posts.asp?TID=1567&PID=20667&title=gerardo-rico-suave#20667 https://top40musiconcd.com/forum/forum_posts.asp?TID=1567&PID=8081&title=gerardo-rico-suave#8081 Author: cmmmbase

yes and no. The original single wasn't on 7". In 1993 (?) Atlantic released a oldies 7" single, which paired the spanglish version of Rico Suave with We Want The Funk on Atlantic 94940.]]> Mon, 04 Dec 2006 15:23:53 +0000 https://top40musiconcd.com/forum/forum_posts.asp?TID=1567&PID=8081&title=gerardo-rico-suave#8081 https://top40musiconcd.com/forum/forum_posts.asp?TID=1567&PID=8077&title=gerardo-rico-suave#8077 Author: Paul C

The cassette single has both the "Spanish Version" and the "Spanglish Version". A US 7-inch vinyl single does not exist.]]> Mon, 04 Dec 2006 07:27:16 +0000 https://top40musiconcd.com/forum/forum_posts.asp?TID=1567&PID=8077&title=gerardo-rico-suave#8077 https://top40musiconcd.com/forum/forum_posts.asp?TID=1567&PID=8075&title=gerardo-rico-suave#8075 Author: Todd Ireland

I believe "The More English Edit" was the version that received airplay on the weekly American Top 40 radio program when I listened to it back when I was living in Germany. Do any of the versions of "Rico Suave" on the above promo CD singles appear on commercial single copies? Or is the commercial single identical to the CD/LP version?]]> Mon, 04 Dec 2006 00:46:12 +0000 https://top40musiconcd.com/forum/forum_posts.asp?TID=1567&PID=8075&title=gerardo-rico-suave#8075 https://top40musiconcd.com/forum/forum_posts.asp?TID=1567&PID=8059&title=gerardo-rico-suave#8059 Author: aaronk

Thanks, Jim. The (4:19) was a typo on my part. It should've been (4:17).]]> Sat, 02 Dec 2006 23:20:08 +0000 https://top40musiconcd.com/forum/forum_posts.asp?TID=1567&PID=8059&title=gerardo-rico-suave#8059 https://top40musiconcd.com/forum/forum_posts.asp?TID=1567&PID=8057&title=gerardo-rico-suave#8057 Author: jimct

Aaron: Just pulled and listened to my copy of PRCD-3679. All details except one agree with what you show above: My Cut 2 (Spanish Version) has both a listed and actual time of (4:17), not (4:19). FYI, Cut 1's actual time IS the same as its listed time, (4:09).]]> Sat, 02 Dec 2006 16:10:13 +0000 https://top40musiconcd.com/forum/forum_posts.asp?TID=1567&PID=8057&title=gerardo-rico-suave#8057
