There is no listed time, actual time is 2:31.

I also have a few surviving Bluebird kiddie records from my childhood days, as well as a couple of the yellow-label Columbia Children's Series 45s. If memory serves (a half-century later) the retail price point was 49 cents for kiddie records vs. the 98-cent full-price lines. I have a yellow-label Columbia Jimmy Boyd "I Saw Mommy Kissing Santa Claus" kiddie 45 that falls into the same category of recycled hits aimed at the kiddies for a discounted price.

One of the Columbias I had as a kid was the story of the Three Billy Goats Gruff. At a record show many years ago, I happened upon a stone mint copy of the same record, immaculate condition picture sleeve and all. I still knew the record by heart, but had no memory whatsoever of the picture sleeve, which I'm sure I immediately annihilated back in the '50s. :)]]> Sat, 17 Mar 2012 09:59:16 +0000 https://top40musiconcd.com/forum/forum_posts.asp?TID=6684&PID=33337&title=perry-como-round-and-round#33337 https://top40musiconcd.com/forum/forum_posts.asp?TID=6684&PID=33334&title=perry-como-round-and-round#33334 Author: Todd Ireland

At present, the database incorrectly has the actual 45 run time for Perry Como's "Round and Round" at 2:41 (which is likely a typo). ]]> Sat, 17 Mar 2012 09:26:21 +0000 https://top40musiconcd.com/forum/forum_posts.asp?TID=6684&PID=33334&title=perry-como-round-and-round#33334 https://top40musiconcd.com/forum/forum_posts.asp?TID=6684&PID=33096&title=perry-como-round-and-round#33096 Author: Hykker

On the various CDs listed in the database that contain the song 'Round And Round' by Perry Como, the run times range from (2:28) to (2:34). I timed my U.S. commercial 45 (RCA 6815) at (2:31).]]> Sun, 04 Mar 2012 12:24:36 +0000 https://top40musiconcd.com/forum/forum_posts.asp?TID=6684&PID=33086&title=perry-como-round-and-round#33086
