Didn't make the top 40, but in Sony's continuing series of Daryl Hall catalog reissues, they've released a digital EP of his single "I Wasn't Born Yesterday" with several different mixes on it:

What on earth did I do? That was supposed to be a post about his single "I Wasn't Born Yesterday." Too early, not enough coffee yet. |

Thanks for the heads up, Brian and Aaron!
Have to say this reissue campaign has been such a pleasant surprise. I guess the current state of affairs between Hall and Oates has reignited Daryl’s interest in his solo catalog. |

Great to see all these Daryl Hall mixes released digitally, after all these years. One of the first things I did was compare the digital EP 7" version of I Wasn’t Born Yesterday to the music video (and my 45), and it is indeed the single version.
That said, one minor thing - the digital EP shaves off some audio from both the beginning fade-in and the end fade-out. Not too much though - it shortens the fade-in by about half a second, and the fade-out ends just under a second early. It also runs a tiny bit faster than the video and the 45, which are about the same in terms of speed and duration. The durations of each: UK 45 - 4:11.509 Video - 4:11.872 Digital EP - 4:09.891 I pitch-shifted the official video up 5 cents and it stayed in sync with the EP version, though its fadeout was still longer by .762 seconds. Still - really happy these are finally available. |

On this EP there's also:
Dreamtime (Arthur Baker Remix) with a legnth of 7:05, but it's shorter than the "Extended Remix Version" from 1986. Edited by edogak2000 |

This week's Daryl Hall EP release is "I'm in a Philly Mood," with the single edit. Doesn't seem to be on Qobuz yet (sometimes they're late), but it's on 7Digital:

I've always loved Daryl's solo work and this song really takes me back. When his next album "Can't Stop Dreaming" was released, I was working at Sears and they played the title track, along with "Cab Driver","Let Me Be The One"and "What's in Your World." Just a great album start to finish.
