Roachford-"Cuddly Toy (Feel For Me)"

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

   Both sides of my promo 45, as well as my promo CD single for this (ESK 1517), all have a listed time of (4:08), but all have an actual time of (3:46). I'm betting that the commercial 45 has also duplicated this timing error, but I don't own one. Could someone who does check to see if it also runs only (3:46), and not (4:08) as stated?

	I don't think I've ever heard a (4:08) version of this song. My Roachford CD and Hitmakers Vol. 18 both run (3:46).

	Nearly one year later, I have an answer for Jim's question! Our good friend abagon informs me his commercial 45 copy of Roachford's "Cuddy Toy (Feel for Me)" has an actual run time of 3:47, which closely resembles the printed record label time of 3:48. Therefore, there's nothing on the commercial 45 resembling the mystery 4:08 time printed on each of Jim's promo single releases.
