Times Two - "Strange But True"

Message Topic Search Topic Options Post Reply Create New Topic Printable Version Translate Topic

   Here are instructions for creating the 45 edit from the LP version on the X2 album (Reprise 25624-2, 1988).  

Keep 0:00.0-3:03.5 until snare hit.

Edit out 3:03.5-3:12.1.

Keep 3:12.1-4:08.6 (to end of track).

This accurately recreates the 45 edit and the "edit" on the CD promo.

FYI, the CD promo is Reprise PRO-CD-2940, 1988, which includes:

1. strange but true (edit) printed 3:59 actual 3:58

2. strange but true (12" vocal remix) printed 6:53 actual 6:48

The version on Another Lost Decade: The '80s: Hard to Find Hits (Time-Life M19133, 2005) is a different mix than the LP and 45 versions.
