Peaches & Herb-"Shake Your Groove..."

3 of my 4 commercial 45 copies are the more common, listed (3:25), actual (3:23) version. Not surprisingly, 31 of the 32 current database "45 version" CD appearances feature this mix, which Pat currently notates as "45 version with instrumental introduction." My other, rarer commercial 45 copy has a listed time of (3:39) and an actual time of (3:37). I only post this info because the only current database CD that allegedly contains this 45 version, the Rhino V/A CD, "Cleveland Rocks! Music From The Drew Carey Show", which Pat specifies as "45 version with vocal introduction", runs only (3:30), :07 shorter than the run time of my actual 45 for this mix.

Nope, the database will need to be changed to reflect the comment "neither the 45 nor LP version." Here's another example of how the fine folks at Rhino goofed. The missing seven seconds on the Drew Carey version is not from the end of the song, but rather it is an editing mistake at the beginning. The intro of the actual 45 has an instrumental loop with the lyrics "shake it, shake it." This occurs TWICE on the actual 45, but only once on the CD.

The LP version on the soundtrack of "Priscilla, Queen of the Desert" has the vocal intro. I believe you can turn that into the vocal-intro 45 version, just by fading early.

Amazing how one wrong edit can spread so fast. 31 CD's? Geeesh...

John, my understanding is the wrong edit occurs only on the Cleveland Rocks! Music From The Drew Carey Show CD (Rhino 75342) as it pertains to the 45 version with vocal intro. I believe the 31 CDs in the database containing the 45 version with instrumental intro are all correct.
