"I Ain’t Got Time Anymore" - Glass Bottle

The actual commercial 45 run time of Glass Bottle's "I Ain't Got Time Anymore" is 2:26. (Timing info once again is brought to us by Jim. The printed record label time is 2:27.) I'm passing this along because database CD run times range from 2:16 to 2:25.

Indy, my 1971 commercial 45 is in mono.

David, I don't have the Glass Bottle LP in question, but my US Avco Embassy DJ 45 has "I Ain't Got Time Anymore" in mono on both sides. By contrast, my promo copy of the follow-up 45, "The Girl Who Loved Me When" (which is also on the I Ain't Got Time Anymore LP) is mono/stereo.

I picked up a "stereo/mono" various artists compilation album in the cutouts around 1974, called Chartstoppers: 20 Original Stars 20 Original Hits Vol. 1 on the Salem label and "I Ain't Got Time Anymore" is in mono on it.

I have just located the promo copy of my Glass Bottle Avco 33024 LP,
which is stated as being stereo on both sides of the LP cover and on both
sides of the LP's label. And while Cut 1, Side 1 (which happened to be the
follow-up single, "The Girl Who Loved Me When") is in nice stereo, Cut 1,
Side 2, which is "I Ain't Got Time Anymore" is definitely in mono. Listed
and actual run time is (2:27).

As an aside, the LP was produced by Dickie Goodman and his frequent
"partner in crime" during this era, Bill Ramal. I believe it was the only Top
40 hit Goodman ever produced, other than his own break-in records,
which were not exactly what I'd call sonic masterpieces.

I now feel even luckier that a stereo version turned up on that "Have A
Nice Day" CD. (Maybe they'll like me better on the BSN forum now!   :)   )
