The 12" club mix version of "Nightshift" can be found
on:

The best of Motown 1980's Volume 1 (which is part of
Universal's Millenium Collection series.)




or the recent European released 3 cd set Collected.

Unless Discogs has the run times wrong (which wouldn't be the first time) those two comps have the (7:01) version, not the
(4:48) promo edit of the (7:01) version.

Yes, I have the single disc, and it sounds excellent. Earlier today, I was
able to edit the full Club Mix to match the Radio Edit. Also, a
commercial 12” was issued in the US with the exact same mixes as the
promo 12”:

Can you fix the link, it isn't working. Thanks!
Favorite two expressions to live by on this board: "You can't download vinyl" and "Not everything is available on CD."

I'm sorry. It's not the edit but the full club mix
clocking in at around 7 minutes. I don't think the edit
is on cd. My bad for not being clear.

It seems there are two versions which run 5:04. One is the familiar album version to me, from which the 45 version was derived. The other is a much different, rougher mix, and it is not based on the Club Mix. It is on some Dutch compilations (Arcade label) going back to at least 1992.

Do any of you know the origin of this mix? Was it released anywhere else?

It's a much-later re-recorded version.
