my commercial 45 for the hot chocolate song "so you win again" issued as big tree 16096 states the run time on the label as 3:55 but actually runs 4:01 and is just a fade of the full length 4:32 cd/lp version.....if you fade for 0:09 from 3:52 to 4:01, you'll effectivly re-create the 45 version.....]]> Sun, 21 Aug 2011 15:18:46 +0000 https://top40musiconcd.com/forum/forum_posts.asp?TID=2750&PID=31313&title=hot-chocolateso-you-win-again#31313 https://top40musiconcd.com/forum/forum_posts.asp?TID=2750&PID=24320&title=hot-chocolateso-you-win-again#24320 Author: EdisonLite

So instead of 34 seconds of "dit-dit doo doo" vamping, it sounds like there's just 8 seconds of it, and I'm guessing the fade starts well before this "dit-dit doo doo" vamp on the US 45 (unless it's just a quick fade over the 8 seconds)?]]> Sat, 07 Nov 2009 14:32:07 +0000 https://top40musiconcd.com/forum/forum_posts.asp?TID=2750&PID=24320&title=hot-chocolateso-you-win-again#24320 https://top40musiconcd.com/forum/forum_posts.asp?TID=2750&PID=24319&title=hot-chocolateso-you-win-again#24319 Author: Paul C

I just compared the two and did not detect a difference other than length.]]> Sat, 07 Nov 2009 13:39:34 +0000 https://top40musiconcd.com/forum/forum_posts.asp?TID=2750&PID=24319&title=hot-chocolateso-you-win-again#24319 https://top40musiconcd.com/forum/forum_posts.asp?TID=2750&PID=24318&title=hot-chocolateso-you-win-again#24318 Author: EdisonLite

Jim (or anyone), do you know where the edit occurs in this song, or if the US 45 is simply a fade of the LP version?]]> Sat, 07 Nov 2009 12:00:04 +0000 https://top40musiconcd.com/forum/forum_posts.asp?TID=2750&PID=24318&title=hot-chocolateso-you-win-again#24318 https://top40musiconcd.com/forum/forum_posts.asp?TID=2750&PID=12806&title=hot-chocolateso-you-win-again#12806 Author: aaronk

I second Jim's comment!]]> Mon, 19 Nov 2007 13:50:46 +0000 https://top40musiconcd.com/forum/forum_posts.asp?TID=2750&PID=12806&title=hot-chocolateso-you-win-again#12806 https://top40musiconcd.com/forum/forum_posts.asp?TID=2750&PID=12805&title=hot-chocolateso-you-win-again#12805 Author: jimct

Great info, Bjorn! In my opinion, it is fascinating to learn about 45 version differences between the U.S. and the European releases of the same song.]]> Mon, 19 Nov 2007 13:46:17 +0000 https://top40musiconcd.com/forum/forum_posts.asp?TID=2750&PID=12805&title=hot-chocolateso-you-win-again#12805 https://top40musiconcd.com/forum/forum_posts.asp?TID=2750&PID=12803&title=hot-chocolateso-you-win-again#12803 Author: Oddbjorn

Hi Jim, For what it's worth; The original UK 45 (RAK 259) and LP vinyl version are both (4:27). I have some UK CD releases by Hot Chocolate, all ran about (4:27). So to my knowledge is the (4:02) version never been released on CD. ]]> Mon, 19 Nov 2007 13:36:15 +0000 https://top40musiconcd.com/forum/forum_posts.asp?TID=2750&PID=12803&title=hot-chocolateso-you-win-again#12803 https://top40musiconcd.com/forum/forum_posts.asp?TID=2750&PID=12710&title=hot-chocolateso-you-win-again#12710 Author: jimct

Although this song is not in the database, it did peak at #31 Billboard, in 9/77. My commercial 45 has a listed time of (3:55), but an actual time of (4:02). The version on my EMI Greatest Hits CD runs (4:27), so there's further investigation needed here. When I have further details, I will post them. ]]> Fri, 16 Nov 2007 11:03:38 +0000 https://top40musiconcd.com/forum/forum_posts.asp?TID=2750&PID=12710&title=hot-chocolateso-you-win-again#12710
