No, it's not. That has actually been issued on several

I have to wonder if EMI can even find the DJ edit of American Pie. I believe that version only went out once, and stations were never serviced it again. I remember when stations wore out the DJ copy they either switched to part one from the stock, or started the stock part 1 at "So Bye Bye Miss American Pie", or played the full version. It only took me 20 years to find a copy of it.. I have three copies now, all are mono, both sides of all of them are mono. I've never heard it or seen it in stereo. ]]> Wed, 09 May 2007 17:27:38 +0000 https://top40musiconcd.com/forum/forum_posts.asp?TID=781&PID=9801&title=don-mcleanamerican-pie#9801 https://top40musiconcd.com/forum/forum_posts.asp?TID=781&PID=9746&title=don-mcleanamerican-pie#9746 Author: jimct

My "Part I" commercial 45 for this, which is stereo, has a listed time of (4:11), but an actual time of (4:06).]]> Sun, 06 May 2007 19:30:12 +0000 https://top40musiconcd.com/forum/forum_posts.asp?TID=781&PID=9746&title=don-mcleanamerican-pie#9746 https://top40musiconcd.com/forum/forum_posts.asp?TID=781&PID=4193&title=don-mcleanamerican-pie#4193 Author: john halloran

If anyone can download to disc the Bob Radil Stereo Edit and mail it out to me, I'd be forever indebted.

Send me an e-mail and I will gladly write a check to cover postage and materials.]]> Tue, 04 Apr 2006 16:42:38 +0000 https://top40musiconcd.com/forum/forum_posts.asp?TID=781&PID=4193&title=don-mcleanamerican-pie#4193 https://top40musiconcd.com/forum/forum_posts.asp?TID=781&PID=4127&title=don-mcleanamerican-pie#4127 Author: TomDiehl1

No problem, thank Bob Radil for putting the thing together.....he's done a few other mp3s as well including a stereo 45 version of Joy To The World by Three Dog Night...]]> Mon, 27 Mar 2006 22:49:33 +0000 https://top40musiconcd.com/forum/forum_posts.asp?TID=781&PID=4127&title=don-mcleanamerican-pie#4127 https://top40musiconcd.com/forum/forum_posts.asp?TID=781&PID=4123&title=don-mcleanamerican-pie#4123 Author: Brian W.

Brian W.

The dj promo starts cold "Bye bye miss American Pie..." much in the same way as if editing out the first verse from the LP, but McLean is singing in a higher key, then it seems to be blended into the LP version with the verse, "Did you write the book of love..."


hope this helps...thanks for trying.]]> Mon, 27 Mar 2006 16:56:57 +0000 https://top40musiconcd.com/forum/forum_posts.asp?TID=781&PID=4119&title=don-mcleanamerican-pie#4119 https://top40musiconcd.com/forum/forum_posts.asp?TID=781&PID=4100&title=don-mcleanamerican-pie#4100 Author: TomDiehl1

I've got an mp3 that was re-created by Bob Radil of the promo 45 version of American Pie with as much of the track in stereo as possible (yes, some parts of it ARE mono, as i believe the promo 45 was mono on both sides for the edit).
