Suzy Bogguss single hit versions that differ from LP versions

List of singles that charted significantly - does not include every
edited Suzy Bogguss single. Single time is followed by LP time

Cross My Broken Heart [1989/#14] - 3:48/3:48
NOTE: to clear any confusion this single is NOT
an edit. The label on the promo 45 incorrectly lists the time as
3:00. However the actual time is 3:48 - the same as the
stock 45 and the original LP version. The version on her 1994
Liberty Greatest Hits album has a different EQ and the
instrumental fade runs a few seconds longer.

Letting Go [1992/#6] - 3:52/4:31 - single is an earlier
fade of the album version

Hey Cinderella [1994/#5] - 3:32/4:06 - single is an earlier
fade of the album version

So I picked up the 1990 Eddie Rabbit compilation Ten Years Of Greatest Hits, which features re-recordings of his biggest hits. Those versions could not be mistaken for the originals - they sound like quickly-made knock-offs, and the overall sound is digital, thin and tinny.

So I checked out Beatin' The Odds from 1997, which he made just after his cancer went into remission. Turns out these were the remakes I had, and they sound very close to the originals. You can hear the 1997 version of Drivin' My Life Away on Youtube.

Unfortunately he died shortly after that album was released, but the album's tracks are available on all sorts of digital compilations - Spotify, Qobuz, etc.

Hope that helps!

To my knowledge the "cheap guitar" single version of Guitar
Town is available from just one CD source - a 1993 3-CD
promo set The Legacy, The True & The Untamed from
MCA Nashville [MCA3P-2771]

See it here

Two from Crystal Gayle:

* "Ready For The Times To Get Better" - Originally
recorded for her 1976 "Crystal" album, the song was
rerecorded and released in 1978 as the follow-up to "Don't
It Make My Brown Eyes Blue." Gayle re-recorded this again
along with several other of her songs for 1993's "Best
Always."

* "Cry" - The 45 version cut the instrumental bridge and a
verse shortening the song by a minute from the album
version. Apart from the 45, I do not believe this edit
has appeared on any other record.

DOLLY PARTON - Two Doors Down

The single is a completely different recording than the album version. It also
adds an "oh oh oh" bridge not found on the LP version, and removes Verse 1 of
the LP version - which I always found odd since it's a story song.

That said, the 45 version is the one most found on CDs. Not only is it on
Greatest Hits but it's also on the Here You Come Again CD, even though the
vinyl original had the LP version (of course).

I recall finding the original album version on some import Dolly Parton CD. But
it may be on a US CD.

DOLLY PARTON - Think About Love

#1 country - yet it's one of her most "pop" songs, up there with "Two Doors
Down" and "Here You Come Again".

The single version is a unique mix, not released on any CD or digitally. It's
only on the 45. There are 2 mixes on CD; one is the album version, the other
is an alternate mix which is closer to the single mix ... but not close enough!
The single mix really has the punch and added instrumentation not found
anywhere else.

Does anyone know what other Dolly Parton singles had single versions
different from the album version?

Does anyone have these country hits (original versions) on CD:

Yellow Ribbon - Johnny Carver (aka "Tie a Yellow Ribbon," a top 5 country hit)
Save Your Kisses for Me - Margo Smith (a top 10 country hit)

-the problem is both songs have re-recordings all over the digital marketplace, and I don't know the originals. So I don't know what the original version sounds like. There's a Varese Sarabande comp with the Margo Smith song (going for very
expensive prices) but it's on qobuz & 7 Digital. The label sometimes releases re-recordings, and since I don't have the physical CD to see if the back side says re-recordings (assuming they'd list that), I can't really tell.
