"Northern Lights" by Renaissance got some airplay in my market in maybe '78. I don't clearly remember if it was a low-power top-40 station or an FM quasi-progressive station that played it.

Anyway does anyone know if the 45 was a different mix or edit of the LP version, and does anyone out there have a CD dub I can listen to of either version? I remember it being a wonderful record.

PM me if you would like!

I have a promo of this on Sire SRE 1022, dated stamped
June 1978.
The stereo side has a listed time of 4:06, the mono side
is noted as an edit and lists 3:29.

Haven't played it in probably 40 years, but I do
remember liking it. No airplay around here that I was
aware of.
