A top 50 hit in 1980, does anyone know where to find the 45 version on CD?
Youtube has an official video timing in at 3:48, yet Mark did a dub that times in at 3:56. The LP times in at 4:08. Can the LP be edited to the 45?

from Sony Special products that times in at 3:56.

The 2020 Japanese singles collection, includes this 3:57
edit and also at least two single versions that as far
as I know have not been released before on CD: Star and
In the stone. Unfortunately it does not include earlier
singles such as Evil and Keep your head to the sky. But
overall, it is a very good compilation with short
versions of hits such as Can't hide love, Saturday nite
or Fall in love with me, which are not very easy to
find.

Single version of "Fall in love with me" is a different
mix. I bought the budget S.O.U.L. compilation from 2013
for that one mix. If I remember the drums were really
different between the single and album mixes.
I see something on that Japanese singles box I need.

You can also check the Earth Wind and Fire Dutch
collection CD from 1998 which besides the 45 version of
"Fall in love with me" includes the 45 version of "I've
had enough", a smaller hit from the Raise! album.

Funkytowngrooves put the 7" version of "I've had enough"
as well on their deluxe version of Raise! back in 2015.
