   Jim informs me his commercial 45 copy of George Harrison's "What Is Life" has an actual and printed run time of 4:18.  I post this information because database CD run times of the hit version clock in from 4:14 to 4:20.

	For anyone who's interested, on the extended 2 CD version of "All Things Must Pass", there's an alternate mix of "What Is Life" that has horns in quite a few sections not on the original (especially instrumental sections). I really like it. In fact, with the help of Mark Mathews, I kind of combined the original mix with the alternate mix to get a full mix - everything on the original mix plus extra horns overdubbed. (I believe the "horn overdub" version on the 2 CD set was primarily instrumental). Anyway, it's really cool if you're into Phil Spector type productions and like everything but the kitchen sink thrown in :)
