Flack/Hathaway - Closer I Get To You

Message Topic Search Topic Options Post Reply Create New Topic Printable Version Translate Topic

   Hi,

Does anyone out there have the promo edit of Roberta Flack & Donny Hathaway's "The Closer I Get To You"?

As I recall it had some out-of-sequence edits & other anomalies that made it "impossible" for me to recreate when the song was a hit.

But, in a similar topic, both "jimct" & Bill Cahill proved I was wrong about the promo of Abba's "Take A Chance On Me" being "impossible" to recreate.

(I prefer being WRONG in situations like these...)

Andy

	I don't have it, but unfortunately I think this thread confirms that you're not wrong about the out-of-sequence edits and other anomalies. But since you brought it up, perhaps in the year and a half since that thread was created perhaps someone acquired the promo along the way (EDIT: I think Gary Mack mentioned in that thread he has the promo), or some of our newer users unaware of the thread have it. Hey, it's worth a shot. :) Edited by sriv94

	I just made a digital simulation of the promo edit. It is not exact because I don't think it's 100% possible without the multitracks... But it's pretty close. If anybody would like to hear it please p.m. me. Andy

	I used to have a copy, but I lost it, but about three weeks ago I found another one in the overstock bins in the legendary record finders warehouse (3 million records in one giant warehouse!)My poor wife and kids. I was in the warehouse 5 hours last Saturday! I will copy it to mp3 tonight and anyone who already owns a legitimate copy of this track can have a reference edit. (I'm not Limewire, but I'm sure everyone here owns the track in one form or another) My AOL email is in the directory here.
