I picked up a stack of reissue 45s this week and was
intrigued to find a couple inconsistencies between two Epic reissue 45s of "Hold Your Head Up". In case you're in the market, be aware that both list 6:15 but neither time is correct. The '70s-era Memory Lane pressing fades around 3:17. I suspect this is the original 45 version. (Deadwax ZSS 156404-2AB.) The gray '80s-era Hall of Fame pressing fades around 2:52. (Deadwax ZSS 156404-2AC.) I suspect this is the DJ 45 version, but based on the database, this could be a failed edit attempt. Any clues as to whether this is correct? (Both copies seem to be backed with the same edit of "God Gave Rock and Roll To You" -- listed 3:28/actual ~3:20.) |

Eric, I take it you meant to say both list 3:15 ??? |

Nope, the reissue is listed 6:15. My 70s-era blue & gold Memory Lane reissue is like Eric's and agrees with my commercial 1972 copy, though the deadwax is different than his...suffix on mine is -2K. Can't comment on whether your later release is the same as the promo edit. My promo has a rather abrupt edit at 1:44 and fades at 2:51. |

The 90s reissue distributed by
Collectables retains the 6:15 time. I don't own it, so I can't comment on what it has. ------------- Live in stereo. |

Coincidence? Or was it actually 3:15am when you posted this? ;) (Edit: It said "6:15" before logging in, but once logged in, it now says "8:15." And so the timing confusion continues...) |
