@mjb50 & kaqueno (Marcelo):

Thank you for the info.! I still may pick the box up as a nice way to collect the albums, but I will do so without the hope of snagging the right 45 version of "Stone Love" ;-)

Eric, how are you? I heard the version you mention,
included in box 2022 and it fades at 3:53, not coinciding
with the times of version 45, I think it's a failed attempt
to recreate version 45. Other additional information is
that in the box the song has no description.

It's the same as the version NightAire linked to.]]> Sat, 21 Jan 2023 12:49:37 +0000 https://top40musiconcd.com/forum/forum_posts.asp?TID=387&PID=62470&title=stone-love-kool-the-gang#62470 https://top40musiconcd.com/forum/forum_posts.asp?TID=387&PID=62469&title=stone-love-kool-the-gang#62469 Author: EternalStatic

Two new Kool and the Gang CD album box sets were released by Edsel Records for the EU market in 2022. The second volume, The Albums Vol. 2 1979-1989, purports to contain the single version of
"Stone Love". Has anyone confirmed whether or not this is the correct version?

I’m happy to report that the 45 version is on a UK Kool & The Gang compilation from 1991 - Anthology - 20 Greatest Tracks.

I rolled the dice on it primarily because it listed "Stone Love" with a duration of 3:56, versus the 3:54 alternate mix included on many of their compilations.

Unfortunately, it fades 3 seconds early.   In the 45 version there’s a snare at 3:53, followed by the lyrics "Me and you" and what sounds like "I love Stone..." just before fade-out. The Anthology version goes silent right after that snare at 3:53.]]> Fri, 14 Jan 2022 12:05:38 +0000 https://top40musiconcd.com/forum/forum_posts.asp?TID=387&PID=60020&title=stone-love-kool-the-gang#60020 https://top40musiconcd.com/forum/forum_posts.asp?TID=387&PID=56416&title=stone-love-kool-the-gang#56416 Author: Plastic Steel

Unfortunately, no, that's not the 45 mix. There are too many synth/horns in the intro, and not enough in the chorus.

I'm fairly certain this is the proper 7" mix.

Ed, to answer your question from almost two years ago, the 45 cannot be re-created from the LP version. They are different mixes.]]> Fri, 17 Oct 2008 01:11:49 +0000 https://top40musiconcd.com/forum/forum_posts.asp?TID=387&PID=19346&title=stone-love-kool-the-gang#19346 https://top40musiconcd.com/forum/forum_posts.asp?TID=387&PID=8583&title=stone-love-kool-the-gang#8583 Author: edtop40

does anyone know if the lp version of the song is similar to the 45 version and thus potentially could be edited down to match the 45's run time?
