Carly Simon - Hello Big Man (45 Version)

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

   Hi guys, how are you? I propose to review the song "Hello 

Big Man" by Carly Simon. A song of little success in the 

US, but here in Argentina it was a success and was played 

on the radio during the 80s and 90s.

- The album version (1983), runs at 5:29.

- Version 45, according to the promo label, runs at 4:54.

Does anyone have this promo? Is it an edit version, a 

simple early fade or is it a mislabeling by the record 

label?

It was published on a compilation CD?

cheers

	Not sure if there is an edit point or an early fade but there is a mono/stereo promo (WB 7-29428). I would assume the mono is just a fold down and there aren't any mix differences but who knows! I think all CD appearances will only include the full LP length.
	Listen to The Lunar Laugh!

	According to the official video, the song runs about 4:55, it's an early fade, but I think the track is speed up, no edit, however the 45 promo says (edit), just like you say Jared. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=bxLyqeodFNM https://www.45cat.com/record/729428us Edited by kaqueno
