Yes, they did. It was remastered in the late '90s when "Greatest Hits Vol III" came out and they swapped out the LP versions for most of the songs.]]> Tue, 31 Oct 2017 18:07:33 +0000 https://top40musiconcd.com/forum/forum_posts.asp?TID=2767&PID=48503&title=billy-joelbig-shot#48503 https://top40musiconcd.com/forum/forum_posts.asp?TID=2767&PID=48502&title=billy-joelbig-shot#48502 Author: eric_a

At quick listen between the 2 versions, it sounds like
an edit of the LP version to get to the ending on the
45.]]> Tue, 31 Oct 2017 13:30:55 +0000 https://top40musiconcd.com/forum/forum_posts.asp?TID=2767&PID=48500&title=billy-joelbig-shot#48500 https://top40musiconcd.com/forum/forum_posts.asp?TID=2767&PID=48499&title=billy-joelbig-shot#48499 Author: eriejwg

Rich,
According to the database, the lone 45 version entry is
available on GH 1 and II. ]]> Tue, 31 Oct 2017 13:09:06 +0000 https://top40musiconcd.com/forum/forum_posts.asp?TID=2767&PID=48498&title=billy-joelbig-shot#48498 https://top40musiconcd.com/forum/forum_posts.asp?TID=2767&PID=48497&title=billy-joelbig-shot#48497 Author: RichM921

Am I correct in assuming that the single version cannot be created from
the album version? I think the fade out is unique, right?

My commercial 45 has a listed time of (3:39), but an actual time of (3:44).]]> Sun, 18 Nov 2007 05:54:39 +0000 https://top40musiconcd.com/forum/forum_posts.asp?TID=2767&PID=12761&title=billy-joelbig-shot#12761
