Based on what Aaron has recently posted here, the A-side of cassette singles are considered the "single version" and not the B-side.

Of course, what others have posted even in just this one post, between AC, hot AC, & CHR/pop stations, I guess there's some gray area in what is THE single version - especially when multiple radio formats had their own mixes sent to them from the record labels.

John, this Original Version is really good. I appreciate you sending the link. I haven't A-B'd it with other mixes to see just how it differs ... I assume this mix is only available on the one promo CD that Todd mentioned earlier.

Gordon, here is the original version...

Checked out the video for this song and it's the single version.

Can't say I ever heard the original version on the radio upon it's release back in 1994.

Checked the Top Hits U.S.A site and they only issued the 7" remix.

TM Century issued the single version, 7" remix and the original version.]]> Wed, 14 May 2025 16:26:50 +0000 https://top40musiconcd.com/forum/forum_posts.asp?TID=6597&PID=66664&title=turn-the-beat-around-gloria-estefan#66664 https://top40musiconcd.com/forum/forum_posts.asp?TID=6597&PID=66657&title=turn-the-beat-around-gloria-estefan#66657 Author: EdisonLite

WPLJ in NY played the 7" remix. (Hot AC)
WALK on long island played the single/album version (AC).

Make of this what you will. :-) I guess it was random.
