journey database amendments

a few notes regarding some differences in journey's top 40 songs

first.......the song "lovin', touchin', squeezin'" runs 3:38 on my 45 issued as columbia 11036......it is not just an early fade of the 3:50 greatest hits cd version as listed in the database......the cd "the rockin' 70's" contains the correct 45 version and IS NOT 0:05 shorter as mentioned in the database.........the only difference between the 3:50 greatest hits version and the 45 version is one of the chorus loops at the end is edited out....both songs end cold and are NOT faded out at all.....

second....the song "seperate ways (worlds apart)" as issued on the 45 columbia 03513 is available on cd in it's 4:26 length.........the cd "gold & platinum" issued as realm records 7679 in 1986 contains the correct 4:26 45 version........

third.........the song "after the fall" issued in 1983 as columbia 04004 and running 4:20 is available on the cd soundtrack of "risky business" issued as an import and originally issued 1984 on virgin 098620

fourth....the song "suzanne" issued in 1986 as columbia 06134 actually runs 3:47 and is 0:10 LONGER than the version from the cd "raised on radio".....similiar to the song "i'll be alright without you" the 45 runs LONGER than their cd/lp counterparts...........

hope this helps

My 45 is the fade version as well. Must be another case of different versions on different pressings...

Ed notes that the 45 version of "I'll Be Alright..." runs longer on the 45 than CD versions, which the database has noted as (4:33 - 45 version faded :10 early). Can the (4:50) LP version be used to add the missing 10 seconds?

time to dredge up this old journey thread......does anyone know if the two 45's mentioned above "suzanne" and "i'll be alright without you" can be extended to requisite 0:10 to match their 45's......for some reason the song "suzanne" is the same on the 45 and on the cd "raised on radio" except the 45 has the song slowly faded out with 0:10 of instrumention......same with the song "i'll be alright without you"....the 45 for "i'll be alright without you" states on the label "hot mix" and is also noted "re-mixed by: steve thompson and michael barbiero at media sound, nyc"......

Sorry to dredge up this thread again.

What needs to be edited out of the Greatest Hits version to make the shorter 45? And is the longer 45 just a simple fade or it is also edited?
