Van Halen - Dreams

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

   My book has the comment "LP Version" next to all CDs with Van Halen's "Dreams."  I checked the commercial 45, and the LP Version is the one used.  The label states (4:54) and it actually runs that length.  I could not hear any differences in the mix.

Unless someone can provide any other information, the comment "LP Version" should probably be removed from the book, since the LP and 45 are the same.

	I'm presuming here Pat may have a radio edit of "Dreams" on a DJ 45 copy and has mistaken it for the commercial 45 version.

	That is correct Todd and I have now added the comment that the dj copies of "Dreams" ran (4:24) and (4:54) while the commercial copies were all (4:54)

	This US commercial 45 version is "REMIX". It is only one point of time that is from 1:08 to 1:10. Eddie's powerful guitar is included. Both of the LP and 45 ran (4:54).

	Good catch here and yes you are correct about the guitar overdub at 1:08!

	Do both the DJ 45 and stock 45 have the overdub?

	The dj copy has the overdub -- I do not have a commercial copy to verify.

	my commercial 45 states a run time of 4:54 on the label but actually only runs 4:49 and has "7-28702-re1-a-sr1" etched in the run out groove.....can anyone confirm their commercial 45's run time?
