   Can the single version of Orinoco Flow be dervied from the LP version?  Or is it a different version as the database seems to indicate?

	I thought it was just an early fade, but I'll have to check to be sure...

	There's one edit to be made to the 4:26 LP version that will give you the single edit. Remove 3:05.8 to 3:47.5, editing on the downbeat during a chorus (Enya's multi-track) where she sings "we can sail, we can sail." My 45 runs 3:45.

	The 45 edit appears on the two disc import Now 1988: 10th Anniversary Series. It's the same set that has the single length of "Purple Rain" on it.

	The edit first appeared on Geffen promo CD single PRO-CD-3389 (1988), where it's designated as "Edit". The same analog transfer is used for: BMG UK's 2-CD Hits Album 9 (1988) the very rare Geffen Records A Musical History Of The Decade Vol. 3 (1990; digitally exactly 0.716 dB quieter) Virgin EMI PolyGram UK's 2-CD Now 1988 (1993; a little hissier than the other three, which isn't a bad thing) I really like the 2-CD sets Now 1983, Now 1984, ..., Now 1993, all released in 1993. Sound is excellent on all of them, although many tracks are faded early by a second or two to cram 20 tracks on each disc. I highly recommend them, but only the 1993 releases. (Confusingly, there are subsequent releases with the same titles, all released in 1999.) Edited by crapfromthepast
