| The lone database CD with Carole Bayer Sager's hit "Stronger Than Before" will need the "LP version" designator, because the 45 has additional overdubs that are not on the LP. (Also, the database correctly notes that the CD is in mono; however, the vinyl LP is in stereo. This is an obvious mastering error, since a mono LP probably doesn't even exist.) |

| On iTunes I came across the song on an album also titled Stronger Than Before but discovered after purchasing it that it is a re-recording. |

I'm assuming this means the 45 cannot be replicated from the LP? ------------- Doug --------------- All of the good signatures have been taken. |

| That's correct, Doug. You probably wouldn't want to use the CD version anyhow, since it's mono. |

Next month the parent LP Sometimes Late At Night will be
reissued on CD, plus one of the bonus tracks included will be the 45 version of "Stronger Than Before." This CD expanded edition is on the Iconoclassic label out of the USA. They are one of a handful of American reissue labels still releasing CDs. They recently reissued the Rocky Burnett album The Son Of Rock And Roll including "Tired Of Toein' The Line" as well as a John Cafferty and the Beaver Brown Band Greatest Hits compilation CD. ------------- Santi Paradoa Miami, Florida |

Thanks for the heads up! Currently available on iTunes (at least on iTunes Canada) is a stand-alone single of "Stronger Than Before" with a copyright line of (c)1981 Boardwalk Records. This is the same version that I mentioned in my post above (from more than fifteen years ago!), except that it is in stereo while the track I purchased in 2007 was mono. I stated in my post above that this was a re-recording, but it is most likely the LP version, with which I am not familiar. Whatever it is, the stand-alone single currently on iTunes is not the single version. |

Cristian, the amazon page of the Expanded Edition you linked to also shows
available in mp3 format. But when I clicked on that, it's just the regular album, which I assume is true for all digital platforms. So if someone wants the single mix in stereo, the only place is on this expanded CD. |
