although not in the db because of it's airplay only status, it was non the less a major hit peaking on the airplay charts at number 11 in january of 1991.....question is, does any of our resident on air personalities from the time remember which track was played most on radio....my promo cd single issued as geffen pro-cd-4170 contains 6 tracks as listed below

1-7" house mix/edit (3:54)
2-lp edit (3:59)
3-bad bart house mix (4:49)
4-swingin' in the house mix (8:35)
5-lp version (5:11)
6-a cappella (3:44)

the lp edit sounds the most like what i remember being played.....anyone chime in??

TM Century issued the 7" House Mix/Edit, so I would imagine that track received a lot of airplay. The video used the LP mix, but I don't remember if it was the edit or the full version.

This is one that Pat has recently added to the database, although promo CD details haven't yet been added. Does anyone else recall which version their local stations played?

Here are the actual times for the promo CD single tracks Ed documented in his opening post:

1-(3:53)
2-(3:57)
3-(4:48)
4-(8:34)
5-(5:09)
6-(3:43)

To answer Aaron's question above, our station happened to play cut 2 (LP Edit) as a current, back in 1991.

Thanks, Jim! It's always interesting to hear the different versions that become the "hit" in different markets, although it does make it a bit more challenging when trying to determine a "definitive" version.
