"Love To Love You Baby" - Donna Summer

Message Topic Search Topic Options Post Reply Create New Topic Printable Version Translate Topic

   Here's one for the DJ 45 crowd.  The commercial edit of "Love To Love You Baby" runs (4:57).  The various (3:21) versions that have popped up on CD are not the DJ edits because of missing overdubs.  So can the commercial single version be edited in such a way as to create the DJ 45 (perhaps to try to edit in the same spots where the (3:21) edits take place)?  Or is it trickier than that?

Thanks.

	You need to be familiar with the 16:00 LP version to answer that. The commercial 45 had the 4:57 edit on one side, and the 3:21 version on the other. The 4:57 edit is edited down from the main part of the long version, the first 12 minutes or so. There's a point in the long version where it has a 'big finish' cold end, and then restarts, like a "reprise" where the song starts again. That is the 3:21 version, taken from the ending of the Lp version. So, the shorter version isn't a dj edit, it is taken from a different part of the incredibly long LP version. Hope that isn't too confusing. -MM
