While in the car the other day, I had SiriusXM 70s on 7 on, and they played a version of "Fernando" with the first 12 seconds lopped off (and I seem to recall hearing that version on other radio stations too). Was that ever issued as a promo, or was it just an edit for the sake of editing?

My promo 45 has the fade intro.
I've always disliked songs with fade-in intros, it sounds loose on the air. I've done my share of intro-editing when I was a jock/MD. |

I've noticed some strange edits on 70s on 7. One that sticks out is Roundabout. The version they play runs around 4:52 with some awkward edits. I'm thinking it comes from a TM GoldDisc (501R) because they have a 4:52 listed version in their database.

I, too, dislike fade-in intros. For example, Limahl's "Never Ending Story". Presumably, what they started with in the studio was a track that was at full volume at the beginning. There was some other hit song I heard the other day that does this - I forget what but a '70s or '80s song - and again, I wish they had kept the fader up from the get-go :) Can anyone else think of hits from that era that do this? |
