Thelma Houston-"Saturday Night, Sunday.."

Although not in the database, this song peaked at #34 in Billboard, in 6/79. My commercial 45 has a listed time of (3:39) and an actual time of (3:40), but that is not the reason for this post. Does anyone know of either a domestic OR an Import CD that contains either the 45 version OR the original "Ready To Roll" LP version of this song? My Thelma Houston "Best Of" CD includes the "Extended Version", which I believe to be the 12" single mix. I also just browsed her "Millennium Collection" on-line, and the track listing I saw indicates that the same "Extended Version" is also included on there. If not, I'm just issuing a "heads up" that finding a usable 45v source for this song appears to me to be fairly tricky.

UK's "Best of" from 1999 on Spectrum label has a 3.53 version of this single, which might be the LP version (as far as I can recall it sounds very similar to the version I remember from 1979) The same version is also included in Volume 2 of "Eigthies Soul weekender" also from the UK (2-CDs and 3 sets compilation) from 1996.

I also would like to know what CD
that track was sourced from.

No.

I just Googled the song and the 3:55 version appears on
Dear White People (A Netflix Original Series
Soundtrack). I'm sure you could fade the song per Ed's
instructions and create a 45 version.
