For those of you who are familiar, I have been assembling the Hot 100 years the best I can from available CD source, dubs and edits made from the LP to match the 45's where applicable.

Since there isnt a reference for radio edits directly in the annual (or as many of you refer to as 45 promos) I thought it might help people with their collections by listing the radio edits.

Also I have a few 1979 lower rungs I need and was wondering if anyone possible knew if they made CD. Thanks as always.

1979 Radio Edits

Rod Stewart - Do Ya Think I'm Sexy (4:15)
Bee Gees - Too Much Heaven (3:52)
Bee Gees - Tragedy (4:10)
Michael Jackson - Don't Stop Til' You Get Enough (3:56)
Barbra Streisand - The Main Event/Fight (4:05)
Dire Straits - Sultan of Swing (4:43)
John Stewart - Gold (3:36)
Supertramp - Take The Long Way Home (4:04)
Supertramp - Goodbye Stranger (4:28)
Pablo Cruise - I Want You Tonight (3:51)
Foxy - Hot Number (3:34)
Rolling Stones - Shattered (2:44)
Chuck Brown - Bustin' Loose Part 1 (3:02)
April Wine - Roller (3:34)
J. Geils Band - One Last Kiss (3:37)
Bram Tchailkovksy- Girl Of My Dreams (3:13)
Billy Thorpe - Children Of The Sun (4:36)
Mass Production - Firecracker (3:47)
Firefall - Goodbye, I Love You (3:25)
Narada Michael Walden - I Don't Want Nobody Else (3:37)
Pat Tavares - Boom Boom (Out Go The Lights) Live (3:19)
Player - Silver Lining (3:22)
Abba - Voulez-Vous (3:45)
Gibson Brothers - Cuba (3:02)
Tim Curry - I Do The Rock (3:02)

Here's what I can't find 45 versions of on CD or good vinyl dubs of

Bonnie Boyer - Got To Give In To Love
Beckmeier Brothers - Rock and Roll Dancin'
Bonnie Pointer - Free Me From My Freedom/Tie Me To A Tree (Handcuff Me)
Randy Brown - You Says It All
Grey & Hanks - Dancin'
Alicia Bridges - Body Heat (The LP is available)
Bama - Touch Me When We're Dancin
Cherie & Marie Currie - Since Youve Been Gone
Gene Chandler - When You're #1 (the 12'' is everywhere)
Tim Curry - I Do The Rock (the promo 45)

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

What is the difference between the 45 version and the LP
version from her "I Love the Nightlife" album? They both
seem to run 3:59.

Both of those Supertramp radio edits are on their Classics
Volume 9 CD.

There are three more 1979 DJ promo edits I'm aware of from reading the threads on each song on this forum:

Dancing In The City - Marshall Hain (3:28)
Happiness - Pointer Sisters (3:22)
Don't Ever Wanna Lose Ya - New England (3:17) "new edit"

I have never heard these three shorter edits and I'm pretty sure they are not on CD. All three are still on my want list.

"Happiness" - Remove the 0:36 intro and you have the promo edit.
"Dancing In The City" - Remove 2:28 to 2:47. The edit should be before the lyric "in" on the downbeat.
"Don't Ever Wanna Lose Ya" - If you already have the single version, just remove the first 13.5 seconds and start with the first drum hits.

No difference between the US stock 45 and LP, but there's a Jim Burgess remix that appears on the 12" and promo 45 (short / long).

Of course, Aaron is correct. However,
The Jim Burgess
remix DID appear on the repress of the
U.S. LP while the
cut was getting heavy airplay on Top-40
radio.

EDITED TO ADD: I am in error! My repress
of the album does NOT contain the Jim
Burgess remix of "Body Heat". Sorry
Aaron & Rich!

Good to know. I'm pretty sure my LP has a printed time of 3:02, but now I'm curious to know if it has the original version or the remix. I do know that some pressings have the 12" version of "I Love The Nightlife," but I hadn't previously seen anything about "Body Heat" being swapped, too.

That's why I am looking for it and noted the LP is available.
