I recall hearing an edit of this in the early 70s on
Drake's "Solid Gold" syndicated format. Wasn't aware
of the promo edit at the time...not sure if that's
what they played or if it was a custom edit.
Don't remember what stations played during the song's
chart run...didn't get my first radio until 1962, so
my listening was a bit more casual before that. Must
have been the complete version I heard, because I
didn't have the song at the time and definitely picked
up the edit.

Although the album/45 version differences are noted in the description on the Top40oncd page for "El Paso," there are no corresponding "45 version" or "LP version" designations for the individual CD reissues.

Is there a reason?]]> Tue, 24 Nov 2020 15:40:49 +0000 https://top40musiconcd.com/forum/forum_posts.asp?TID=8141&PID=56617&title=el-paso-marty-robbins#56617 https://top40musiconcd.com/forum/forum_posts.asp?TID=8141&PID=49829&title=el-paso-marty-robbins#49829 Author: garye

Tom, listened to the promo edit you posted on YouTube.
Thanks for putting it up. When you hear it, it just
doesn't sound complete. You can almost can tell
listening.]]> Tue, 07 Aug 2018 18:47:05 +0000 https://top40musiconcd.com/forum/forum_posts.asp?TID=8141&PID=49829&title=el-paso-marty-robbins#49829 https://top40musiconcd.com/forum/forum_posts.asp?TID=8141&PID=49764&title=el-paso-marty-robbins#49764 Author: PopArchivist

I've been trying to finish off my 60's top 10 collection and that radio edit has been the only one I could not find on CD. Thank you for providing it so I can hear what it sounded like.]]> Fri, 27 Jul 2018 07:32:59 +0000 https://top40musiconcd.com/forum/forum_posts.asp?TID=8141&PID=49764&title=el-paso-marty-robbins#49764 https://top40musiconcd.com/forum/forum_posts.asp?TID=8141&PID=49756&title=el-paso-marty-robbins#49756 Author: TomDiehl1

Yes, that is the short promo 45. I forget where in the

I think this is the 2:59. Can anyone confirm?

Does the 2:59 radio edit even exist on CD? If not, how can you recreate it from the 4 plus minute version?]]> Tue, 17 Jul 2018 21:14:30 +0000 https://top40musiconcd.com/forum/forum_posts.asp?TID=8141&PID=49723&title=el-paso-marty-robbins#49723 https://top40musiconcd.com/forum/forum_posts.asp?TID=8141&PID=42002&title=el-paso-marty-robbins#42002 Author: KentT

I suspect the edit was done for the first two track Stereo
abridged reel tape release. And that was the first Stereo
release of the album. I suspect that was mastered first.
And released with the mono LP. And when it came time for
the Stereo LP version to be prepared, the 3 track tape
bearing the other take was missing or could not be located. ]]> Wed, 13 Aug 2014 09:00:01 +0000 https://top40musiconcd.com/forum/forum_posts.asp?TID=8141&PID=42002&title=el-paso-marty-robbins#42002
