Agreed, Todd. I don't think there is likely to be a copy of the LP with the guitar intro edited out. It looks like Pat has already updated the database to include "LP length" for 4:06 CD entries.]]> Sun, 11 May 2014 22:48:56 +0000 https://top40musiconcd.com/forum/forum_posts.asp?TID=2564&PID=41412&title=laura-branigan-self-control#41412 https://top40musiconcd.com/forum/forum_posts.asp?TID=2564&PID=41387&title=laura-branigan-self-control#41387 Author: Todd Ireland

I know this has been one of the most frequently resurrected threads on the forum, but I've finally been able to listen to several vinyl LP copies of Laura Branigan's "Self Control". The LP run time is 4:06 and all copies I've heard contain the guitar introduction.

So unless someone can report coming across an LP copy without the guitar intro, then a case can be made that all database CDs running 4:05-4:06 could accurately be described as: "LP length, which includes guitar introduction".]]> Sat, 10 May 2014 13:55:54 +0000 https://top40musiconcd.com/forum/forum_posts.asp?TID=2564&PID=41387&title=laura-branigan-self-control#41387 https://top40musiconcd.com/forum/forum_posts.asp?TID=2564&PID=37727&title=laura-branigan-self-control#37727 Author: Smokin' TomGary

If you need a custom edited version, feel free to PM me. IMO, it's not a loss that the "Edit" version is not on CD. It's really bad sounding.]]> Sun, 19 May 2013 22:39:19 +0000 https://top40musiconcd.com/forum/forum_posts.asp?TID=2564&PID=37718&title=laura-branigan-self-control#37718 https://top40musiconcd.com/forum/forum_posts.asp?TID=2564&PID=37716&title=laura-branigan-self-control#37716 Author: Santi Paradoa

Yes, Brian. By the way, I think there's a general misconception by some that the Gold Legion reissue of Self Control is only a limited pressing of 1,000 copies. My understanding is that the first 1,000 copies will come with a limited edition cardboard slip and that all subsequent copies will not. (Mine did come with one and in my humble opinion it really doesn't bring anything of added value to this release. The slip is simply nothing more than a redundant printing of the front and back album cover.)

Paul, did you order this directly from Gold Legion?]]> Sat, 18 May 2013 23:46:42 +0000 https://top40musiconcd.com/forum/forum_posts.asp?TID=2564&PID=37687&title=laura-branigan-self-control#37687 https://top40musiconcd.com/forum/forum_posts.asp?TID=2564&PID=37686&title=laura-branigan-self-control#37686 Author: Todd Ireland

I've received my copy of the Laura Branigan Self Control CD reissued on Gold Legion 62392. Here's all the pertinent information regarding the Top 40 singles appearing on this disc:

Self Control (S) (4:06) (includes guitar introduction)

The Lucky One (S) (4:09)      

Self Control (S) (5:03) (12" single version)

The Lucky One (S) (5:24) (This is listed as the "John Robie Mix". I'm not aware of this extended version ever having been previously released anywhere else.)

The Lucky One (S) (5:05) (This is listed as the "Jack White Mix", though I'm almost positive this is actually the 12" single version.)

The CD refers to the of "The Lucky One". And for anyone wondering, the audio levels are maximized and compressed like on most modern CD releases, which may come as a disappoint to audiophiles (like myself) who are picky about sound quality. However, the tracks are transferred from master tape which does make it worth finally having the 12" single version of "Self Control" on CD!

Thank you, that's exactly where I heard it! During the summer of 1984 I spent Friday and Saturday nights watching Night Tracks on TBS (didn't have access to MTV), and that was one of the clips they had in high rotation.]]> Sat, 04 Dec 2010 19:46:21 +0000 https://top40musiconcd.com/forum/forum_posts.asp?TID=2564&PID=28515&title=laura-branigan-self-control#28515
