    Posted: 24 December 2010 at 8:59am
i was reviewing my 1989 library of co-mingled cassingles and vinyl 45's and was trying to acquire all of the 1989 top 40 hits on vinyl that i had on cassette single and discovered that there are quite a few top 40's from 1989 that where NEVER issued on vinyl!!!...i never realized this until this project....below is a list of the top 40's from 1989 that do not have a corresponding 7" vinyl 45 with the same label & catalog number. i believe this is a complete list but i'm open for review and corrections....

sybil-don't make me over   (next plateau 325   peak #20)
2 live crew, the-me so horny   (skyywalker 130   peak #26)
morales, michael-what i like about you   (wing 889678   peak #28)
de la soul-me myself and i   (tommy boy 7926   peak #34)
whitesnake-fool for your loving   (geffen 22715   peak #37)
cover girls-my heart skips a beat (capitol 44436   peak #38)

Sounds right. The first two I was only ever able to obtain on 12" singles which both had the radio versions (luckily for me).

Of the songs above:

"Don't Make Me Over" was issued on 45, briefly, as the B-side of Sybil's next single, "Walk On By" (Next Plateau KF 327).

"Me So Horny" exists as a promo-only 45 (Luke Skyywalker LS 113) with the same version on both sides.

"My Heart Skips a Beat" by the Cover Girls was on a promo-only 45 from Capitol (7PRO-79705), with the so-called 7" Radio Edit on both sides.

The other three above, I have never seen on a U.S. 45 of any kind. When Collectables reissued most of the Tommy Boy hits on 45s in the mid-1990s, they missed "Me Myself and I" for some reason.

And did you miss "When the Night Comes" by Joe Cocker, which peaked at #11? There was a Capitol promo 45 (7PRO-79711), and it later showed up as the B-side of a 1992 jukebox single (Capitol S7-57988), but it was not available on a U.S. 45 in 1989.

If it matters at all, we had a stock 45-rpm disc of this song in Canada. I'm pretty sure it was on Capitol.

tim...you had me there, almost......i revised my post.....the original starting point of the post was the year 1989....joe cockers song "when the night comes" actually peaked in 1990....the benchmark i have always used was anything before 1990 in have on 45 and 1990 to about 1996 i have the single version as cassingle....but your point has been noted...thanks for the correction

Actually, it peaked in 1989. The 45 wasn't released, though, until September 1990, at the same time as those for Roxette's next two hits, "Dangerous" and "It Must Have Been Love."

cassette singles..talk about the day the music died....
that's when I stopped collecting current music.
sadly a lot of those songs haven't been reissued.
cudos to those who do have them...
the way it was heard on the radio
