I was hoping the expanded edition of Gap Band IV was
on Qobuz but it's not. I just listened to the 45 version on the Time-Life collection Disco Fever - Let's Groove collection and the pop is there at 1:47 as well. Could the proper opening drum fill be edited into the 45 version listed as having the improper opening drum fill? |

No, there is at least one other section in the 45 version that is nowhere to be found on the long version. As I recall, it's somewhere after the second chorus.

Jason, I looked up what people thought of the expanded
editon of Gap Band IV on Amazon. Presuming this review was for this particular CD, here's what someone said after their purchase - "Sadly the remastering on this album is atrocious. Dropouts and a very boxy sound quality throughout. Trust me, the UNexpanded edition is far better quality - I know since I have both. I was so pleased to get Outstanding Instrumental version but am seriously disappointed with it. Other BBR recordings are nowhere near as bad as this one generally, having bought quite a few. I dunno what the good people at BBR were thinking when releasing this as an 'acceptable' recording :(" |

Hey eriejwg:
So, does Disco fever-Let's groove cd has the proper 45 version despite the defect listed? |

According to the database, it does contain the proper 45
version. Though, I'm not thrilled with the sound quality. |

John - thanks for the info on the expanded edition of Gap
Band IV. I have a handful of BBR releases in my collection, and most of them have good to excellent sound. I was hoping that would be the case here. Pretty sure that Disco Fever - Let's Groove uses the Billboard disc as its source. |
