I'd be surprised if it wasn't the LP version.

Yes, I was referring to the LP version, not the short
version.

Most likely it would've cracked the R&R Top 40, had the chart gone that far down, likely stalling somewhere around #35 or so.

I remember lots of airplay on the local rock stations and just heard it a handful of times on the Top 40 stations. The fact that it hit #1 on Billboard's Rock Tracks chart confirms that it was a big rock hit, not so much Top 40.]]> Wed, 05 Apr 2017 04:24:24 +0000 https://top40musiconcd.com/forum/forum_posts.asp?TID=3188&PID=47306&title=golden-earring-twilight-zone#47306 https://top40musiconcd.com/forum/forum_posts.asp?TID=3188&PID=47305&title=golden-earring-twilight-zone#47305 Author: sriv94

In Chicago, WLS-AM played the long 45 during the day and the LP version at night. WLS-FM played the LP version in all dayparts except
mornings (simulcast with the AM). TTBOMR, WBBM-FM played the long 45.]]> Tue, 04 Apr 2017 19:13:05 +0000 https://top40musiconcd.com/forum/forum_posts.asp?TID=3188&PID=47305&title=golden-earring-twilight-zone#47305 https://top40musiconcd.com/forum/forum_posts.asp?TID=3188&PID=47304&title=golden-earring-twilight-zone#47304 Author: eriejwg

hear the song on Classic Rock stations locally these
days.]]> Tue, 04 Apr 2017 11:49:22 +0000 https://top40musiconcd.com/forum/forum_posts.asp?TID=3188&PID=47304&title=golden-earring-twilight-zone#47304 https://top40musiconcd.com/forum/forum_posts.asp?TID=3188&PID=47303&title=golden-earring-twilight-zone#47303 Author: eriejwg

When comparing the promo edit to the stock 45 version, the section from 2:40 to 3:13 is removed, and the promo fades sooner. As Doug indicates, the promo runs a little faster, too.]]> Tue, 11 Dec 2012 14:48:31 +0000 https://top40musiconcd.com/forum/forum_posts.asp?TID=3188&PID=36113&title=golden-earring-twilight-zone#36113 https://top40musiconcd.com/forum/forum_posts.asp?TID=3188&PID=36112&title=golden-earring-twilight-zone#36112 Author: Hykker

Thanks for the heads-up, I was able to track down a promo
copy of this. It almost sounds like there are 2 edits in
the short version: the instrumental bridge being shortened
and another somewhat rough-sounding edit about :25 before
that.

Sounds like the promo edit is also faster than the stock
edit (if the YouTube link is any indication).]]> Tue, 04 Dec 2012 20:00:06 +0000 https://top40musiconcd.com/forum/forum_posts.asp?TID=3188&PID=36075&title=golden-earring-twilight-zone#36075
