   Both my commercial and promo 45s for this have a listed time of (4:06), but an actual time of (4:02). This (4:02) timing is exactly the same as both of its current CD appearances in the database. One final question, though. On both sides of my promo 45, below the timing, it states (Edit). This does not appear on my commercial 45. Was there indeed a longer version somewhere? I know that MCA issued the movie soundtrack for this film on CD, but "Love Touch" (aka "Theme From Legal Eagles") does not seem to appear on it. Possibly because he was a WB artist, and MCA couldn't license/include this song on their soundtrack LP, as a result of that? I know that many times such issues CAN be worked out, like with Bob Seger's "Shakedown" a year later in '87, with the Capitol artist appearing on the MCA soundtrack CD for "Beverly Hills Cop II". (By the way, Seger was a last-minute replacement singer for then-MCA solo artist Glenn Frey, who had come down with laryngitis - Seger only agreed to sing it if he could rewrite the lyrics, though!) The only LP that "Love Touch" seems to appear on is his self-titled 1986 WB LP/CD, which clocks in at (4:02). Maybe the (Edit) designation was all just simply a promo 45 label typo?
