bruce hornsby "mandolin rain"

my commercial 45 of bruce hornsby & the range song "mandolin rain" issued as rca 5087 does not state a version but lists a run time as 4:41 and is an edit of the full length 5:17 cd/lp version......i found the proper 45 version on the uk import cd single with a catalog number of pd49770......i don't know if it's an edit that is easily re-created from the full length cd version.....this 45 run time info s/b added to the db...

You can't simply edit it, because it's a remix by Eddie King.

Among other subtle differences, it has more reverb on the lead vox & is faster pitched than the LP mix.

Thanks, Ed, for posting the catalog info for the UK CD single. It allowed me to track down a copy which arrived today. Nice to hear the remix without any vinyl noise! Now, is anyone aware of an import source on CD for the remix of Every Little Kiss?

There also appears to be another promo 7" (RCA ‎– 5087-7-
RAA) for Mandolin Rain with a track duration of 4:15. I
don't have this one so I'm not sure if it's mis-timed or
a different version/edit.
