Fun fact ... RCA later released the radio edit on a CD
single. The disc has the same artwork as the original
7"/12" so I'd initially thought it was released
concurrently with the vinyl, but it's backed with "All
Night Party," which wasn't released until 1989, so it had
to be a reissue. Discogs says the CD single didn't come
until 1995.]]> Sun, 15 Jan 2017 18:46:05 +0000 https://top40musiconcd.com/forum/forum_posts.asp?TID=6195&PID=46767&title=buster-poindexter-hot-hot-hot#46767 https://top40musiconcd.com/forum/forum_posts.asp?TID=6195&PID=46758&title=buster-poindexter-hot-hot-hot#46758 Author: Santi Paradoa

The radio edit, as Ron described it above, also appears on disc 1 of the double disc 2003 release Greatest Hits Of The 80's (BMG Special Products). ]]> Sat, 14 Jan 2017 19:03:58 +0000 https://top40musiconcd.com/forum/forum_posts.asp?TID=6195&PID=46758&title=buster-poindexter-hot-hot-hot#46758 https://top40musiconcd.com/forum/forum_posts.asp?TID=6195&PID=29881&title=buster-poindexter-hot-hot-hot#29881 Author: aaronk

Wow! Great info, Ron! I always presumed the shorter version on Totally '80s was the 45 version. I just heard the true 45 version, and it's a very different mix!]]> Wed, 20 Apr 2011 19:13:09 +0000 https://top40musiconcd.com/forum/forum_posts.asp?TID=6195&PID=29881&title=buster-poindexter-hot-hot-hot#29881 https://top40musiconcd.com/forum/forum_posts.asp?TID=6195&PID=29880&title=buster-poindexter-hot-hot-hot#29880 Author: crapfromthepast

Not a top 40 hit in late 1987/early 1988, but pretty well
known.

The 45 had a designated "Radio Edit" with a printed time
of 3:45 and an actual time of 3:46. The single at the
time was RCA 5357. I have the "Radio Edit" as the B-side
to the tan-label promo for "Zat You Santa Claus", on RCA
6893-7-RAB, which was mailed to my college radio station
on December 14, 1987. (Even wrote it on the red RCA
generic sleeve!)

Importantly, the "Radio Edit" has an "Additional
Production and Remix by John Morales and Sergio Munzibai
for Another 'M + M' Productions Inc" credit on the label.

It's easy to tell which version is this "Radio Edit" - it
starts with a snare/crash cymbal, and has a bass drum
beat and some other percussion behind the opening "Ole
Ole's".

The album version (no remix) has no instruments behind
the opening "Ole Ole's".

That said, I have the true 45 "Radio Edit" version on
only one CD - a Canadian CD on Quality Records called
This Is Music 4, where it also runs 3:46.

The album version runs about 4:08 on Time-Life's
Sounds Of The Eighties Vol. 30 Rolling Stone
Collection 1988-1989 and on Simitar's Number Ones
Party On.

The surprise (for me anyway) is that the version that
runs 3:47 on Razor & Tie's 2-CD Totally '80s is
the album mix, but faded early to match the
45! It's not the 45 mix!
