15.) Five Satins - I'll Remember (In The Still Of The Nite)


Under various titles...In The Still Of The Night/Nite/ I'll Remember.....this is one of the most reissued songs of all time.



40.) Tommy Edwards - It's All In The Game

Which version? 1951 or 1958? Both are on cd....the stereo mix has a lot of echo on it while the 45 is dry, yet if you fold the stereo mix down to mono, all of the echo disappears.....so that must just be how it was recorded and not an added effect to the song....

Thanks Tom

The Five Satins song I have on CD, but it differs from the time in the Whitburn book. The time in Whitburn is 2:30 and most all of the copies are o/a 3:01. Is the 45 time really o/a 3:01?

Also, the Tommy Edwards song is from 1958. The time in Whitburn is 2:25 but I have not seen any songs less than 2:37 on CD. Is the 45 time really o/a 2:37?

thank you
Chris

Bird on My Head is on this out of print Japanese CD:

I'm sure you can probably find a used copy somewhere for a reasonable price.

Quite a few timings are incorrect in the Whitburn books, because he mostly goes by the time printed on the label, which is frequently wrong. We have corrected many of them here on the board, which Pat adds to the database, but it doesn't look like anyone has looked at those two yet. My guess is the 2:25 time for "All in the Game" is a typo.

Mills Brothers "Get a Job" is in the database. Is that not the hit version?

"Melody of Love" by David Carroll I know for a fact has never been issued on CD. That's one of my top wants myself, and I've spent hours looking for it. It's not out there.

While that is true for the earlier editions, in the latest "Hot 100 Annual" book I corrected A LOT of timings. Hope everyone here bought a copy:)
