I think Ron G. is accurate. The stations that opted not to
use the original intro used the the 12" and either made a
custom edit or spliced the LP version on after the 12"
intro. If there was an alternate intro promo 45, the
members of this board would have uncovered it by now.

From the few times I listened to WPLJ, I never knew them to make custom
edits.



I used to be a member of the New York Radio Message Board, and Larry
Berger (WPLJ’s PD until Scott Shannon came back to NY from LA) posted
several times to it. I asked him about how the music was presented since
the shift from AOR to CHR (and before CDs and hard drives became
standard). He said if the 45 version was available to them on a 33 1/3 disc
they played it from that (since the turntables were set at that speed from
their AOR days). If it was only available to them as a 45, they carted it.

Well that's odd. I don't think I've ever seen a single-speed professional turntable. I guess it solves the problem of DJs
starting something at the wrong speed, but it also limits flexibility.
