I think I might have solved the mystery. I have an old
cassette tape that I made back in the early 90's that has this song on it and most likely from the promo cd during my radio days. It does run faster than the LP version. I think this is a similar situation to Peabo Bryson "If Ever You're In My Arms Again" where the radio version was sped up to appeal to top 40 radio. Maybe if someone on the forum has the promo cd single they can confirm. Edited by promojunkie |

The actual time on HitDisc 799A is 3:44. Keep in mind that many of the HitDiscs around this time were mastered from vinyl. |

Is the 3:44 version an earlier fade of the 3:49 or is it sped up to run 3:44? |

Closing the loop on this. Aaron send me a dub of the promo
cd and the single version is indeed pitched faster for a track duration of 3:47 instead of the LP speed and duration of 3:50. |

Does this mean the TM Century file fades out 3 seconds
earlier than the promo CD single? |

The version included on the TM Century album (799A), has a real running time of 3:42, i'm not sure if it's a version that runs faster than the album version or has some editing. I was able to get a few copies of the versions included on the TM Century HitDiscs, thanks to Dave and can say the following: CD 799A: 3:29 - with a real time of 3:42, bpm 121 CD 837A: 3:36 - with a real time of 3:50, bpm 118 version The Best Of Bonnie Raitt: 4:04 - with a real time of 4:04, bpm 119 Perhaps there is another more expert member and can give more details |

Yes. The promo CD runs 3:47. |

Favorite two expressions to live by on this board: "You can't download vinyl" and "Not everything is available on CD."

If you go to youtube, the official video matches this promo
single regarding speed and length. I have no idea where the 4:04 version that is on her greatest hits comes from. Could be the original was trimmed down for the 1989 cd and all pressings at that time and left in tact for the hits album. Just a theory, not fact. |

I can confirm that the promo CD single runs exactly 2.0% faster than the LP version. All else is basically the same.
The very tail of the fade on the promo CD single runs about 5 beats longer than the version I have on Time-Life's Rolling Stone Collection 1988-1989, but I don't know if the Time-Life disc shortened the tail of the fade from the Bonnie Raitt full-length CD. |

There's a lot of crap on the radio, but there's only one Crap From The Past.
