I remember discussing track this some years ago with a colleague who was a big Fleetwood Mac and Stevie Nicks fan, we opined that the 9 minute version found on the 12" might have been the original version intended for the album given it has a more sparse feel. ]]> Sat, 03 Feb 2024 08:58:57 +0000 https://top40musiconcd.com/forum/forum_posts.asp?TID=2571&PID=64367&title=stevie-nicks-rooms-on-fire#64367 https://top40musiconcd.com/forum/forum_posts.asp?TID=2571&PID=64357&title=stevie-nicks-rooms-on-fire#64357 Author: Underground Dub

I'm with you on this one! The mixing differences from the parent album versus the
7 inch remix on the promo CD single must be VERY subtle. I can't detect any
difference at all. Am I missing something other than length?

I have the promo cd single Modern Records PR 2744 which has 2 tracks, the first is the 7" remixed edit which runs (4:24) and the second track which is the 7" remix running (4:29). I also have a 7" vinyl DJ copy which states 7" remix and runs (4:29) so I can only assume that the US 45 version was the 7" remix running (4:29). The parent CD for Rooms On Fire was "The Other Side Of The Mirror" which runs (4:34). There are two versions of the new CD titled "Stand Back". One is a 3 cd set and on there Rooms On Fire runs (4:33) and to my ears sounds the same as the parent album version. The 2nd "Stand Back" CD is a single CD set and on this cd Rooms On Fire runs (4:28) and the liner notes state this is the US 45 version which would be the 7" remix.

Now on May 14, Elcoleccionista posted that he cannot hear the difference between the mix on the parent album and the 7" remix version found on the vinyl 45 or the promo cd referenced above and I am saying the same thing. Can anyone point out exactly what is remixed on the 7" remix version as I am not hearing any difference except in length between the LP version and the 7" remix (45 version). All the other versions of this song on cd that run 4:32, 4:33 or 4:44 appear to be just an LP length.]]> Tue, 30 Jul 2019 14:33:04 +0000 https://top40musiconcd.com/forum/forum_posts.asp?TID=2571&PID=52278&title=stevie-nicks-rooms-on-fire#52278 https://top40musiconcd.com/forum/forum_posts.asp?TID=2571&PID=52275&title=stevie-nicks-rooms-on-fire#52275 Author: PopArchivist

Can anyone point out what I should be listening for to distinguish the 45 version from the LP version of those two songs?

The 45 version on the CD single from 1989 runs 8 seconds shorter for Rooms on Fire and is a remix edit, with the remix running 4:29. The greatest hits version and subsequently any releases after the 1989 CD single do not have the correct release. Check your PM concerning the Remix Single version vs the LP version.

The 4:29 is on a cd single promo with the remix edit of 4:24

I'm holding the CD single that was sent to the top 40 station I was at when it was released.

It lists two tracks:

1. (7" remixed edit) listed 4:24, actual 4:27 file length
2. (7" remix) listed 4:29, actual 4:30 file length

The CD's # is PR 2744-2, Modern Records, a Warner Communications company. (P) 1989

"The Modern album 'The Other Side Of The Mirror' available on LP 91245-1, cassette 91245-4 and compact disc 91245-2."

The disc appears to have been stored in sandpaper for the past 22 years, so it's going to take a while to rip it in & tell you actual AUDIO length; I'll report back when I have solid numbers.]]> Sun, 23 Jan 2011 23:37:09 +0000 https://top40musiconcd.com/forum/forum_posts.asp?TID=2571&PID=29029&title=stevie-nicks-rooms-on-fire#29029 https://top40musiconcd.com/forum/forum_posts.asp?TID=2571&PID=26318&title=stevie-nicks-rooms-on-fire#26318 Author: edtop40

my commercial 45 issued as modern 99216 states the version as (7" remix) with a listed run time of 4:32 but actually runs 4:25...this 45 info s/b added to the db....it looks like there may be two pressings......my runout groove info is "st-mr-56985-3 or-22981-3 24842"]]> Sun, 09 May 2010 20:53:06 +0000 https://top40musiconcd.com/forum/forum_posts.asp?TID=2571&PID=26318&title=stevie-nicks-rooms-on-fire#26318 https://top40musiconcd.com/forum/forum_posts.asp?TID=2571&PID=22574&title=stevie-nicks-rooms-on-fire#22574 Author: abagon

I presume that the "Rooms On Fire" on the US vinyl LP "The Other Side of the Mirror" is different from the US commercial 45.
Because The 45 states the descriptions of the "7 remix, Mixed by Stephen W. Tayler, and Remixed from Modern LP 91245 The Other Side Of The Mirror" on the record label (Modern 7-99216).
