Suzy Bogguss single hit versions that differ from LP versions
List of singles that charted significantly - does not include every
edited Suzy Bogguss single. Single time is followed by LP time
Cross My Broken Heart [1989/#14] - 3:48/3:48
NOTE: to clear any confusion this single is NOT
an edit. The label on the promo 45 incorrectly lists the time as
3:00. However the actual time is 3:48 - the same as the
stock 45 and the original LP version. The version on her 1994
Liberty Greatest Hits album has a different EQ and the
instrumental fade runs a few seconds longer.
Letting Go [1992/#6] - 3:52/4:31 - single is an earlier
fade of the album version
Hey Cinderella [1994/#5] - 3:32/4:06 - single is an earlier
fade of the album version

So I picked up the 1990 Eddie Rabbit compilation Ten Years Of Greatest Hits, which features re-recordings of his biggest hits. Those versions could not be mistaken for the originals - they sound like quickly-made knock-offs, and the overall sound is digital, thin and tinny.
So I checked out Beatin' The Odds from 1997, which he made just after his cancer went into remission. Turns out these were the remakes I had, and they sound very close to the originals. You can hear the 1997 version of Drivin' My Life Away on Youtube.
Unfortunately he died shortly after that album was released, but the album's tracks are available on all sorts of digital compilations - Spotify, Qobuz, etc.
Hope that helps!

To my knowledge the "cheap guitar" single version of Guitar
Town is available from just one CD source - a 1993 3-CD
promo set The Legacy, The True & The Untamed from
MCA Nashville [MCA3P-2771]
See it here

Two from Crystal Gayle:
* "Ready For The Times To Get Better" - Originally
recorded for her 1976 "Crystal" album, the song was
rerecorded and released in 1978 as the follow-up to "Don't
It Make My Brown Eyes Blue." Gayle re-recorded this again
along with several other of her songs for 1993's "Best
Always."
* "Cry" - The 45 version cut the instrumental bridge and a
verse shortening the song by a minute from the album
version. Apart from the 45, I do not believe this edit
has appeared on any other record.

DOLLY PARTON - Two Doors Down
The single is a completely different recording than the album version. It also
adds an "oh oh oh" bridge not found on the LP version, and removes Verse 1 of
the LP version - which I always found odd since it's a story song.
That said, the 45 version is the one most found on CDs. Not only is it on
Greatest Hits but it's also on the Here You Come Again CD, even though the
vinyl original had the LP version (of course).
I recall finding the original album version on some import Dolly Parton CD. But
it may be on a US CD.

DOLLY PARTON - Think About Love
#1 country - yet it's one of her most "pop" songs, up there with "Two Doors
Down" and "Here You Come Again".
The single version is a unique mix, not released on any CD or digitally. It's
only on the 45. There are 2 mixes on CD; one is the album version, the other
is an alternate mix which is closer to the single mix ... but not close enough!
The single mix really has the punch and added instrumentation not found
anywhere else.
Does anyone know what other Dolly Parton singles had single versions
different from the album version?

Does anyone have these country hits (original versions) on CD:
Yellow Ribbon - Johnny Carver (aka "Tie a Yellow Ribbon," a top 5 country hit)
Save Your Kisses for Me - Margo Smith (a top 10 country hit)
-the problem is both songs have re-recordings all over the digital marketplace, and I don't know the originals. So I don't know what the original version sounds like. There's a Varese Sarabande comp with the Margo Smith song (going for very
expensive prices) but it's on qobuz & 7 Digital. The label sometimes releases re-recordings, and since I don't have the physical CD to see if the back side says re-recordings (assuming they'd list that), I can't really tell.

Gordon, The Varese Sarabande CD booklet leads me to believe that it is the original recording
from Warner Bros. On the CD it runs 3:05, and my LP runs 3:03. I don't have the 45 RPM single
(anymore). -Bill.

And then in a listening comparison of the 2, I find no difference between them as far as mixes
or instrumentation except the CD sounds quite shrill, but maybe my 'highs' are going! -Bill.

...and the intro, bridge and
ending of "Every Face Tells A Story" (# 55 Pop, # 21
Country) were edited/faded from the album version.
I don't believe the intro of this ONJ song was edited at
all.

Thanks Bill. I'll buy the Margo Smith flac on qobuz!
I hope someone knows if Johnny Carver's "Yellow Ribbon" is available on CD,
or even which is the original version vs. re-recorded version

The Margo Smith CD on Varese contains the original Warner
Brothers recordings. I provided 45 dubs for A/B comparison to
Steve Massie who mastered that disc.
https://www.discogs.com/release/10041649-Margo-Smith-The-
Very-Best-Of-Margo-Smith
The only CD that I have seen Johnny Carver's Yellow Ribbon
listed on was a foreign Time/Life various artists country CD
release. But the asking price was way too high as that was the
only track that I did not already have. My guess is that it may
have been the original ABC recording but I cannot say for
certain.
A CD collection of Johnny Carver's ABC & ABC/Dot hits has
never been issued. After the 2008 Universal fire that may be
impossible. Johnny did re-record his hits and they have been
issued on K-Tel & other labels.
Here's the original ABC recording on YouTube:

Ken, do you know the name of that foreign Time/Life CD that has Carver's
Yellow Ribbon? Also - What makes you think that it could be the original -
when all other CD releases have the re-recording?

Sorry but I don't recall the title of that Time/Life country disc but I
do remember that it was not a domestic release - probably from
the U.K. or Australia. It was a volume in one of their country
series like "Classic Country." Foreign versions of the Time/Life
country series had additional volumes that were not part of the
U.S. releases.
The Time/Life Country discs have been very reliable for using
the original versions of country hits. It's possible a remake could
have been used but I believe it's very unlikely.

Ken, I checked Discogs and couldn't find any TimeLife CD with this song
unfortunately - just 2 from Denmark on the Elap label. One of those is called
"Do You Remember 1973" and I think I remember reading it contained the re-
recording.

Coincidently, I just saw a release on Johnny Carver's 'Tie A Yellow Ribbon....'. It's on Hindsight Records out of upstate
New York. Is this legit? I read on their website that they are delving into classic country after releasing post WW II jazz
and big band releases. It almost sounds like they extract the vocals and record new instrumentation. There are a lot of
'Grey-area' companies out there. Has anybody heard of this?? -Bill.

There are a lot of re-recordings/CDs of Johnny Carver's "Tie a Yellow Ribbon".
So I don't know about this one. It seems like it might not be the original
recording. Does anyone have it?
