David, I have a mid-'70s pressing Epic Memory Lane 2242 reissue 45, which states a time of (2:35), but matches Jim's Okeh 45's actual (2:30) timing. The YouTube clip runs at a noticeably slower speed.

Doing some research on this track, and wouldn't you know it, our friend who
will be dearly missed from this board once again had provided his valuable
input regarding a 45 timing.

Does anyone else have a 45 for this track? The 45 length is not currently
on CD. I found one on YouTube that runs longer than 2:30 - it runs quite a
bit slower than the version I have from "The Best of Major Lance: Everybody
Loves a Good Time", so perhaps there is a speed issue with this track (45
vs. LP, CD era issue, ...).

The Matador (45)

My commercial 45 (confirmed as OKeh 7191, is styrene, with machine-stamped deadwax of "ZSP-77193-1A") has no listed time and an actual time of (2:30). Unfortunately, all three of the current database CDs including this song run shorter, at either (2:23) or (2:25).]]> Tue, 11 May 2010 07:44:27 +0000 https://top40musiconcd.com/forum/forum_posts.asp?TID=5628&PID=26359&title=major-lancethe-matador#26359
