My promo 45 has the revised version on
both sides. ]]> Tue, 23 Jan 2018 14:33:12 +0000 https://top40musiconcd.com/forum/forum_posts.asp?TID=3429&PID=48863&title=peaches-herbshake-your-groove#48863 https://top40musiconcd.com/forum/forum_posts.asp?TID=3429&PID=48856&title=peaches-herbshake-your-groove#48856 Author: Bill Cahill

It was played at WTRY Albany for a while at the time of the songs peak. While I thought a new copy had come in with a new mix, It was most
likely just an older copy that I found in the music director's office. Since no date stamp was used on the 45s as they came in, it was probably
the original issue. Figured that playing it would freshen up the song since it had been in power for so long.

FWIW, I never heard the vocal intro version on the radio in 1979, and I was listening to A LOT of radio back then.]]> Sat, 20 Jan 2018 04:34:38 +0000 https://top40musiconcd.com/forum/forum_posts.asp?TID=3429&PID=48855&title=peaches-herbshake-your-groove#48855 https://top40musiconcd.com/forum/forum_posts.asp?TID=3429&PID=48854&title=peaches-herbshake-your-groove#48854 Author: eriejwg

Mark, thanks for the update. At least the first release 45
version can be created digitally.]]> Fri, 19 Jan 2018 14:36:02 +0000 https://top40musiconcd.com/forum/forum_posts.asp?TID=3429&PID=48854&title=peaches-herbshake-your-groove#48854 https://top40musiconcd.com/forum/forum_posts.asp?TID=3429&PID=48843&title=peaches-herbshake-your-groove#48843 Author: MMathews

Just some follow-up details ... when I posted earlier I
hadn't yet seen the database. So I guess this vocal-
intro mix is not rare on CD at all. It just always
appears in the LP length. My GSC CD is just faded early,
but not quite early enough to be the rare 45 version.

And upon closer listen, I agree with Aaron..after those
cymbal crashes in the opening chorus the mixes are
identical. So erie, the answer to your question is yes,
you created the rarer 45 version.

If I am reading correctly, the real MIA version on CD is
the 2nd LP version with instrumental intro. Aaron posted
that it's on the CD for "2 Hot!" but that CD is not in
the database.

Anyway I pulled the stock copy of the rare 45 and it
matches Jim's promo, listed (3:39) and actual (3:37). The
deadwax # is PD14514 78 NP-3787-S-CP1
As listed earlier in this thread the deadwax on the
common hit 45 is PD14514 78 NP-3787-REV-S-56-1

So all available info confirms the vocal-intro stock 45
was the first early pressing but by the time this was a
national hit, the drum intro version had fully taken over
and that's what most consumers heard and bought.

Hykker wrote: OK, I'm confused. Are you saying that some copies of the 45 had the cold vocal intro? I have both a promo and stock single of this, and both have :13 intro. I do remember JB- 105 in Providence playing the cold intro, but don't recall hearing it anywhere else. I was working at an AC station at the time and we (obviously) didn't play it.

The cold vocal intro was serviced to radio as a promo 45.
This version didn't get hardly any play in my era, the
shorter 45 with instrumental beginning was the common hit
45 which got the airplay and charted high. ]]> Tue, 16 Jan 2018 12:11:38 +0000 https://top40musiconcd.com/forum/forum_posts.asp?TID=3429&PID=48839&title=peaches-herbshake-your-groove#48839 https://top40musiconcd.com/forum/forum_posts.asp?TID=3429&PID=48838&title=peaches-herbshake-your-groove#48838 Author: KentT

I have the vocal-intro version on one CD. It appeared on
one of those 1995 GSC 3-CD box sets called "Dance Fever -
The Best Of Disco". I bought it at Costco.
Set was mfg. by Polygram so it's filled with stuff from
that catalog. The set has a lot of 45 versions, but some
are LP versions. What's interesting is they chose
whichever version was less common on CD at that time.
Mastering is excellent.

Re: Vocal-only intro version. This was one of the two
pressings of the stock 45. Apparently the less common
one. We have both pressings at work. I'll pull them both
and report back.
I bought this 45 in NY when it was new and got the drum-
intro version and like you Ron, that was all I heard on
radio. I never heard this vocal-intro mix until I bought
this GSC CD set. And until this forum, to me it was a
mystery mix.
I keep saying "mix" because you can't tack the vocal-
intro onto the other single version. They are different
mixes. One difference you might notice is in the opening
choruses the common 45 has cymbal crashes under the
title, but the other mix does not have any.
More info later....

10 years ago, I see I proposed the possibility of
pasting the vocal intro onto the more common 45 version
to create the rarer 45 version. I finally just tried
that and it runs 3:38.

Does that mean I have the rarer 45 version now?]]> Mon, 15 Jan 2018 20:30:23 +0000 https://top40musiconcd.com/forum/forum_posts.asp?TID=3429&PID=48835&title=peaches-herbshake-your-groove#48835 https://top40musiconcd.com/forum/forum_posts.asp?TID=3429&PID=48834&title=peaches-herbshake-your-groove#48834 Author: Santi Paradoa

All these years later I'm surprised nobody has bothered to take the LP version with the vocal intro, done the early fade to match the rarer 45 version and released it on CD. I have the LP version, the 12" single version, plus the 45 version with the instrumental intro on CD. Wonder if that rarer 45 version has perhaps been released on an import CD. ]]> Mon, 15 Jan 2018 18:26:06 +0000 https://top40musiconcd.com/forum/forum_posts.asp?TID=3429&PID=48834&title=peaches-herbshake-your-groove#48834
