Pat, if you decide this qualifies as a domestic release, I am more than happy to post the run times, (M) or (S), and versions of the top 40 hits.]]> Thu, 31 Jan 2019 17:43:16 +0000 https://top40musiconcd.com/forum/forum_posts.asp?TID=2234&PID=51159&title=al-greenlivin-for-you#51159 https://top40musiconcd.com/forum/forum_posts.asp?TID=2234&PID=51158&title=al-greenlivin-for-you#51158 Author: smallworld

Paul C wrote: Hi Records 45s continued to be mono until at least 1975 and, although the title [The Hi Records Singles Collection] suggests these are all the single mixes, of the Top 40 hits only "Tired Of Being Alone", "Let's Stay Together", and "Full Of Fire" are mono.

FPH16103 is the catalog number (the entire barcode reads: 7 67981 16103 7). The address is a P.O.

A handful of folks on the Hoffman forum were praising this release for great
sound quality. It was dirt cheap, so I picked it up for $13.50, which included
shipping from the UK. The 3-disc set does not look like an import, and the
address for Fat Possum Records is in Mississippi.

Reissue Producer: Bruce Watson
Original Master Tape Transfer by Scott Bomar At Electraphonic Recording,
Memphis, TN * Mastered By Clay Jones At Pete's Room, Oxford, MS

Amazon does not list it as an import, either. Strangely, though, I couldn't find
any US sellers offering it for sale in December when I ordered it. Even weirder,
the Fat Possum Records website has absolutely no mention of this release at
all.]]> Wed, 30 Jan 2019 14:06:09 +0000 https://top40musiconcd.com/forum/forum_posts.asp?TID=2234&PID=51148&title=al-greenlivin-for-you#51148 https://top40musiconcd.com/forum/forum_posts.asp?TID=2234&PID=51147&title=al-greenlivin-for-you#51147 Author: smallworld

From what I've read, the recent "Hi Records Singles Collection" release doesn't use correct single mixes across the set, only for a few tracks. Is this correct?

Santi are you sure this is a U.S. CD release? If so what is the catalog number as all I can find on the internet is a U.K. pressing of this cd.]]> Wed, 30 Jan 2019 09:18:21 +0000 https://top40musiconcd.com/forum/forum_posts.asp?TID=2234&PID=51146&title=al-greenlivin-for-you#51146 https://top40musiconcd.com/forum/forum_posts.asp?TID=2234&PID=51144&title=al-greenlivin-for-you#51144 Author: Santi Paradoa

The shorter length of this song does appear on CD on the Hi Records Singles Collection. It's a three disc set of all of the a & b-sides of Al's '70s singles released on the Hi label. This US release is on the Fat Possum Records label. ]]> Tue, 29 Jan 2019 20:18:19 +0000 https://top40musiconcd.com/forum/forum_posts.asp?TID=2234&PID=51144&title=al-greenlivin-for-you#51144 https://top40musiconcd.com/forum/forum_posts.asp?TID=2234&PID=37784&title=al-greenlivin-for-you#37784 Author: edtop40

jim,

on the right side middle of the label it only says '45-2257
then a P in a circle then 1973 Hi Recording Corp., then
under that is says (Recorded in Memphis)....it does say on
the left side middle 'time 3:09 Hi 2791'....no sighting of
any 'E' or 'EV' on my label...and no 'X' listed on the
label either...]]> Sat, 25 May 2013 18:23:14 +0000 https://top40musiconcd.com/forum/forum_posts.asp?TID=2234&PID=37784&title=al-greenlivin-for-you#37784 https://top40musiconcd.com/forum/forum_posts.asp?TID=2234&PID=37781&title=al-greenlivin-for-you#37781 Author: jimct

Ed, I just pulled out the commercial 45 I based my original post on. My
deadwax info for it is a handwritten "HI-2791-EV 11-9-73". I also own a
mono/promo DJ 45 for this song. The deadwax info on the mono side of
my promo exactly matches what is on my mono, commercial 45. (The
stereo side deadwax is the same, except for a "Z" before the initial "HI".)

Ed, I have also noticed that, on the actual label for both these 45s, under
the 45-2257-E, and the Copyright 1973 Hi Recording Corp., it says "HI-
2791-EV" on it, which also matches my deadwax info. Since you say your
45's deadwax ends with a "X", and neither my stock nor promo 45 does,
does your 45 label state something like "HI-2791-X" on it? In any case,
your copy would appear to be the rarer of the two pressings, based on the
consistency of my stock/promo deadwax info.
