I'm close to sorting out all of the various mixes on this one. I just
purchased a 1-track US promo CD single, which I'm waiting to arrive in
the mail. The listed details are:
Next Plateau (NPCD50157)
1. The Original Recipe Mix (listed 4:40)
In all my years of collecting, I had never seen this promo until the other
day, but it appears this was truly the first issued promo CD single, as it
likely contains the original Blacks' Magic LP version and carries no
"RE" designation in the catalog number.
I also had a friend of mine send me a copy from his Blacks' Magic
CD, and it runs an actual 4:42. Surprisingly, I had never heard this mix
before! It is the one described above that starts with "Punch it! Herb,"
and has a completely different beat compared with the hit version. (The
5:55 "Club" version on the remix promo also has the "Punch It!" toward
the beginning, and it's this longer version that has the same beat
and instrumentation as the hit 3:30 edit.)
To summarize:
- The Original Recipe Mix (4:42) appears on the original pressing
of Blacks' Magic and (most likely) US promo CD single
NPCD50157.
- The Original Recipe Remix - Radio (3:30), also known on
imports as the True Confessions Edit, appears on the second pressing
of Blacks' Magic, US cassette single, and US promo CD single
NPCD50157 RE-2.
- Super Crispy Remix (4:44) appears on the US cassette single,
US promo CD single NPCD50157RE-1, and A Blitz Of Salt-N-Pepa
Hits.
All of the above three mixes are completely different in instrumentation,
but the vocal take is the same between the Original Recipe Mix and
Original Recipe Remix versions. The Super Crispy Remix, as noted
above, has a different vocal take and lyrics.
In addition, the longer 5:55 "Club" version of The Original Recipe Remix
appears on US promo CD NPCD50157 RE-2, but I am not aware if this
version appears on any full-length albums.
