part on the 45
version at about (1:20) that isn't in the LP version at the corresponding part
(which would be at about (1:56)), or if it's there it's mixed very low and under
the
piano (which itself is mixed a little lower on the 45 with the guitar more
prominent).

If that makes any sense.


The guitar part is audible in the LP version, it's in the right channel.

A MUCH better source for the 45 edit is Time-Life's Sounds Of The Seventies Vol. 5 1977 (1990), which sounds quite nice. There are digital clones of this version on:
  • Madacy's Rock On
    1977
    (1996; digitally exactly 1.3 dB louder)
  • Time-Life's AM Gold Vol. 24 1977 (digitally exactly 1.269 dB louder)
  • Time-Life's 2-CD Body Talk Vol. 17 Heart To Heart (1997; digitally identical)

All of the above sound quite nice.

There's a different analog transfer on Varese's Dick Bartley On The Radio Vol. 2 (1997), which clips a tiny bit.



I just ripped the Dick Bartley disc a few days ago! I didn't have any other purpose other than putting it on hard drive for later use. Sounded ok to me but, now I want to check out those Time-Life discs. I don't have hardly any
equipment to check dB levels but, now I have something else to look for to burn the rest of my cash ;) For now, I'll be happy to trust the members here to list out details like this.

I'm also embarrassed to say that had I not read this post, I'd have never known my headphones were on backwards. I guess I need an upgrade. The sides aren't labeled!
<Dave> Someone please tell I-Heart Radio that St. Louis is not known as The Loo!
