Vikki Carr-"With Pen In Hand"

   Although not in the database, this song peaked at #35 in Billboard, in 7/69. My commercial 45, which is mono and confirmed as Liberty 56092, has a listed time of (3:55), but an actual time of (3:58). The only CD I currently own this song on, the EMI "Legendary Masters Series" Best Of, has a running time of (4:02). I am not sure yet if the :04 difference comes from the 45 being sped up a little, or if the song's ending crowd applause is simply faded a little bit sooner on the 45. If/when I get the answer to this question, I will report back.

	jim.....my commercial 45 list a run time of 3:55 and runs 3:58, just like yours..........my cdr version has the spoken word intro for about 0:34 before the song starts....if you clip that off and fade the audience applause 0:01, you effectively be able to re-create the true vinyl 45 version running 3:58...
