I was hoping that, too, but Pat's database, before it went down, listed it as the full-length 4:30 (or thereabouts) LP Version.

AllMusic has a few mistakes like that. The Rock On 1981 CD's jacket states that LRB's "The Night Owls" runs 3:45 (the Excelsior version), and AllMusic took that as gospel (and of course, was wrong). The entry was corrected for the Madacy 1996 version.
So there are a number of occasions where they'll use what's on the CD jacket and be wrong (but not always). Turning this back to "Telephone Line," the 45 removes the sound effects at the top and fades a bit earlier than the LP--is that correct, or is there another edit or two involved? |

No, that's correct. The only sound effect left at the beginning is the
last little synthesizer cascade before the first notes of the song. |

Great. And the running time is (3:57), yes? (Just making sure run time matches with printed label time.) Edited by sriv94 |

Yes, that's the correct time. And, by the way, if you want to get the
45 version of "Evil Woman," get the version off of Rhino's Like Omigod! The 80's Pop Culture Box and edit out the line "I came a-runnin' every time you cried" in the last verse, and voila! |

??????Evil Woman was from 1976 and there are no ELO songs on the Omigod! The 80's Pop Culture Box.

I think Paul meant the Have A Nice Decade 1970s box, which does have an edit of "Evil Woman" (although as he said, it's not the 45 because they made one editing error). |

I have just timed my commercial 45, and, contrary to info appearing earlier in this thread, my 45 has a listed time of (3:57), but an actual time of (4:00). My 45, purchased in 1977, has green vinyl, and features deadwax of "UAST-17907-E".
