Pat:

What is the actual commercial 45 run time of Andy Gibb's "An Everlasting Love"? The 10th edition shows the song running 4:06 on a couple of CDs and each is noted with the comment: (LP length). Meanwhile, the 45 shows a printed run time of 4:06 on the record label. I don't have a copy of the 45, but I can only assume it doesn't actually run 4:06. Otherwise the "LP length" comments listed in the 10th edition would have to be incorrect.

Well when I picked up my dj copy, the label stated 3:44 and I timed it and it really ran 3:45. I then reread your post which said the commercial 45 stated a time of 4:06 and I scratched my head, turned the dj copy over and lo and behold the flip side stated a time of 4:06 and ran 4:06. If you are wondering, the 3:45 version is just an early fade of the 4:06 45 and LP length. I will correct my LP length comment and add a comment about the dj 45 having two lengths.

Thanks for clearing this up, Pat. By the way, I've come across a promo 45 listing of "An Everlasting Love" on eBay with a catalog number of RSO RS 904. It's reported to have mono on one side and stereo on the other? Does your DJ copy reflect this, Pat?

Yes, the short version is in mono and the long version is in stereo.

I thought I had notes on this, but can someone detail
the exact beginning and ending fade points to recreate
the DJ 45?

Would the fade on the DJ mono
side start at the 3:30 mark?

The fadeout on the mono DJ 45 resembles the head of a swordfish. It begins at 3:30 and dumps out quite abruptly at 3:44.2, with a "whoomp" sound that shows as a spike, followed by nothing.

Great work, John! Going forward, we shall refer to these as "swordfish
head fades."

Ha! I'd better get it patented while it still passes the smell test. :)

I believe those are what are known as "exponential" fades. ;)
