Didn't know there was a unique 45 mix.

Thanks to John's dub, I can now confirm that the edit on "Legend" does not match the promo 45 exactly. I assume the "Legend" comp re-edited the LP version to smooth out the clunky edit on the intro as heard on the vinyl 45. After making all the edits (the last of which does not match the vinyl), the producers didn't match the fade and left the original LP version fade in full. This is only a theory, however, because early in the thread, John shared a YouTube video of a 45 dub that I matched up the "Legend" edit. That video is no longer viewable, but at the time, I had matched it up to the "Legend" edit successfully. This makes me wonder if there is a stock copy that has a slightly different edit than the promo 45. The UK 45 definitely runs longer than the US promo and does have the same ending as the LP version.

Yeah, that's probably a '90s era CD pressing you've got.

I also placed an order for a promo 45 of "Exodus," and I'll post what I find once it arrives.]]> Wed, 18 Aug 2021 06:42:09 +0000 https://top40musiconcd.com/forum/forum_posts.asp?TID=8931&PID=58911&title=bob-marley-legend-single-edits-mixes#58911 https://top40musiconcd.com/forum/forum_posts.asp?TID=8931&PID=58910&title=bob-marley-legend-single-edits-mixes#58910 Author: AdvprosD

The CD version of Legend that I am looking at has an Island Number of 422-846 210-2, while also showing the Tuff Gong label with three hands.

The CD is dated 1984 on the Island label and notes on the CD and insert, "Remastered from the original tapes by Barry Diament, Barry Diament Audio, NYC and Rob Froboni."
Pressed by Island and a USA release. From What I read before, Barry Diament was again in charge of a re-master in 1992? So, what does that make this disc? I don't see
any indication that this disc was produced in '92 other than most CDs weren't commercially available until 1985. So, this must be a 1992 disc?]]> Tue, 17 Aug 2021 22:10:08 +0000 https://top40musiconcd.com/forum/forum_posts.asp?TID=8931&PID=58910&title=bob-marley-legend-single-edits-mixes#58910 https://top40musiconcd.com/forum/forum_posts.asp?TID=8931&PID=58909&title=bob-marley-legend-single-edits-mixes#58909 Author: aaronk

John, I can no longer find the YouTube dub of the US 45 I used for my comparison, but I can say for sure that the dub you're listening to has much less reverb for one reason only: it has some very heavy noise reduction applied. I'm not talking about modern-day NR; this is the same type of Dolby NR that was discussed in the "Puttin' On The Ritz" thread. That entire dub sounds incredibly muffled from start to finish, but it's the same mix as the 4:18 version. There is also an editing difference near the end. I wonder if more than one US pressing exists with different versions. Still, I can't believe Island Records would put out an official 45 that sounds as bad as this.

Revisiting this, I have a dub of what's labeled as a U.S.
45 version of "Exodus" that runs 4:00 and has much less
reverb on the intro that the copy I have of the song Exodus
on the 1984 pressing of Legend. The file on Legend runs
4:18.

Is the 4:00 45 version available digitally?]]> Tue, 17 Aug 2021 17:06:10 +0000 https://top40musiconcd.com/forum/forum_posts.asp?TID=8931&PID=58908&title=bob-marley-legend-single-edits-mixes#58908 https://top40musiconcd.com/forum/forum_posts.asp?TID=8931&PID=55827&title=bob-marley-legend-single-edits-mixes#55827 Author: LunarLaugh

Yes, I would be very interested to see your comparison.
I had a buddy who heard my CD after owning the vinyl and
told me that the CD sounded "wrong" to him. Now I know
why. I haven't heard the remixes, but from your
descriptions they sound like abominations to me. :)
