I was working at a radio station when this was popular. We were serviced with a 12" single. MCA-13955 (MCA 2281). Actual time is 5:06. Flip side is the Instrumental. This was the commercial 12" with a Promo label on the cardboard cover, not a white label promo.]]> Sat, 07 Jan 2012 18:50:07 +0000 https://top40musiconcd.com/forum/forum_posts.asp?TID=1693&PID=32449&title=afternoon-delightsgeneral-hospitale#32449 https://top40musiconcd.com/forum/forum_posts.asp?TID=1693&PID=32416&title=afternoon-delightsgeneral-hospitale#32416 Author: Hykker

Bit of trivia on this...it was co-written by Lisa Tedesco, better known as "Lisa Lips", morning show sidekick on Kiss 108 in Boston.]]> Fri, 06 Jan 2012 07:51:00 +0000 https://top40musiconcd.com/forum/forum_posts.asp?TID=1693&PID=32416&title=afternoon-delightsgeneral-hospitale#32416 https://top40musiconcd.com/forum/forum_posts.asp?TID=1693&PID=8573&title=afternoon-delightsgeneral-hospitale#8573 Author: Todd Ireland

Thanks a bunch, Roscoe! You also save Jim from having to break the seal on his very rare collector's item... Not that I would ever ask or expect him to do it on my account anyway! ;-)]]> Wed, 17 Jan 2007 22:32:33 +0000 https://top40musiconcd.com/forum/forum_posts.asp?TID=1693&PID=8573&title=afternoon-delightsgeneral-hospitale#8573 https://top40musiconcd.com/forum/forum_posts.asp?TID=1693&PID=8572&title=afternoon-delightsgeneral-hospitale#8572 Author: Roscoe

I have the LP, and General Hospi-tale indeed times out to just a bit over 5:06. The 45 is an edit of the LP version.]]> Wed, 17 Jan 2007 20:14:11 +0000 https://top40musiconcd.com/forum/forum_posts.asp?TID=1693&PID=8572&title=afternoon-delightsgeneral-hospitale#8572 https://top40musiconcd.com/forum/forum_posts.asp?TID=1693&PID=8571&title=afternoon-delightsgeneral-hospitale#8571 Author: jimct

Interesting find, Jim...

The Afternoon Delights did release a self-titled LP in 1981, which contained "General Hospi-Tale". Can anyone verify if the longer 5:06 version on the promo 45 appears on the group's parent LP?]]> Wed, 17 Jan 2007 18:46:36 +0000 https://top40musiconcd.com/forum/forum_posts.asp?TID=1693&PID=8570&title=afternoon-delightsgeneral-hospitale#8570 https://top40musiconcd.com/forum/forum_posts.asp?TID=1693&PID=8563&title=afternoon-delightsgeneral-hospitale#8563 Author: jimct

My commercial 45 has a listed time of (3:56), but an actual time of (3:59). My promo 45 has these exact same timings on one side of it, while specifying it as "Short Version." The other side of my promo 45, which states "Long Version", has both a listed and actual time of (5:06). ]]> Wed, 17 Jan 2007 04:47:20 +0000 https://top40musiconcd.com/forum/forum_posts.asp?TID=1693&PID=8563&title=afternoon-delightsgeneral-hospitale#8563
