My understanding is that the correct 45-LP version running at 3:36 comes from this compilation from the UK.

Glad you could help, Mark. Thanks!

Your theory regarding the ultra low audio at the end of the song on your LP is certainly plausible as to why the last few seconds may have gotten faded out early on CD.]]> Sat, 19 Jul 2008 06:44:40 +0000 https://top40musiconcd.com/forum/forum_posts.asp?TID=3911&PID=17661&title=rupert-holmes-answering-machine#17661 https://top40musiconcd.com/forum/forum_posts.asp?TID=3911&PID=17660&title=rupert-holmes-answering-machine#17660 Author: edtop40

Just got it, time on the album label says 3:45 but actual run time is 3:36.   
I should note, the audio level between 3:28 - 3:36 is so low I had to turn everything way up to get the last traces....it's a long-trailing fade. I could see where whoever was mastering the cd might not have heard it, and just faded it where they thought there was silence. Just a theory. -MM]]> Fri, 18 Jul 2008 17:49:21 +0000 https://top40musiconcd.com/forum/forum_posts.asp?TID=3911&PID=17651&title=rupert-holmes-answering-machine#17651 https://top40musiconcd.com/forum/forum_posts.asp?TID=3911&PID=17644&title=rupert-holmes-answering-machine#17644 Author: Todd Ireland

"Answering Machine" has appeared on two database CDs to date, but both run shorter than the 45 at 3:32 and 3:29, respectively. Does anyone have the 1981 vinyl LP release of Rupert Holmes' Partners in Crime who can report to us the run time for "Answering Machine"?]]> Thu, 17 Jul 2008 20:31:29 +0000 https://top40musiconcd.com/forum/forum_posts.asp?TID=3911&PID=17644&title=rupert-holmes-answering-machine#17644 https://top40musiconcd.com/forum/forum_posts.asp?TID=3911&PID=17617&title=rupert-holmes-answering-machine#17617 Author: abagon
