Correct, it's on the 12" and promo CD single, as well as import CD single.]]> Sun, 21 Nov 2021 11:18:34 +0000 https://top40musiconcd.com/forum/forum_posts.asp?TID=9705&PID=59577&title=rump-shaker-wreckxneffect#59577 https://top40musiconcd.com/forum/forum_posts.asp?TID=9705&PID=59574&title=rump-shaker-wreckxneffect#59574 Author: eric_a

You're right -- I'd forgotten about that. I hadn't heard
that in years!

Can't speak for Aaron but it seems to be the lead track on
the 12" and also appears on the promo CD. ]]> Sun, 21 Nov 2021 03:19:01 +0000 https://top40musiconcd.com/forum/forum_posts.asp?TID=9705&PID=59574&title=rump-shaker-wreckxneffect#59574 https://top40musiconcd.com/forum/forum_posts.asp?TID=9705&PID=59572&title=rump-shaker-wreckxneffect#59572 Author: PopArchivist

The edit on the EW disc sounded pretty awkward, plugging in vocals
from elsewhere in the song, so I suspect it originated with the
compilation producers.

Funny that in a song as suggestive as this, these two phrases crossed
some threshold that the rest didn’t.]]> Sat, 20 Nov 2021 16:33:24 +0000 https://top40musiconcd.com/forum/forum_posts.asp?TID=9705&PID=59566&title=rump-shaker-wreckxneffect#59566 https://top40musiconcd.com/forum/forum_posts.asp?TID=9705&PID=59562&title=rump-shaker-wreckxneffect#59562 Author: mjb50

I was poking around on Discogs and noticed that there are three catalog number variations for the album. The standard US CD is MCAD 10566, and 10566 is the same number on most releases worldwide. But here's what's strange:

• The Columbia House mail-order edition for some reason has an asterisk after it: MCAD 10566*.
• There's a separate US CD (and cassette) release where the number contains 10792 instead of 10566.

There's not enough detail entered to distinguish them further. I'm totally speculating here, but there may be revised/edited content on these oddly numbered items. More investigation is needed.

Incidentally, when the song was a hit and the album first came out, MCA & the artists rejected the idea of making a censored video for MTV.
“What’s the point?” Riley asked. “The single’s already a smash hit. Why spend that money now?”

Those lyrics are definitely in the LP version from Hard Or Smooth, so it's probably worth noting in the database that the EW 1992 CD has an "edited" version.]]> Fri, 19 Nov 2021 23:30:40 +0000 https://top40musiconcd.com/forum/forum_posts.asp?TID=9705&PID=59558&title=rump-shaker-wreckxneffect#59558 https://top40musiconcd.com/forum/forum_posts.asp?TID=9705&PID=59551&title=rump-shaker-wreckxneffect#59551 Author: eric_a

Just discovered that "Rump Shaker" on the "Entertainment
Weekly 1992" compilation masks a few vocals - replacing
"sharp sword" and "stickin' it to her" with other audio
from the song.

This is listed in the db as LP version but I don't think
those lyrics are masked on the original CD -- can anyone
confirm? I know the 45 has the original lyrics.
