1979 Hot 100 Discussion

For those of you who are familiar, I have been assembling the Hot 100 years the best I can from available CD source, dubs and edits made from the LP to match the 45's where applicable.

Since there isnt a reference for radio edits directly in the annual (or as many of you refer to as 45 promos) I thought it might help people with their collections by listing the radio edits.

Also I have a few 1979 lower rungs I need and was wondering if anyone possible knew if they made CD. Thanks as always.

Both of those Supertramp radio edits are on their Classics
Volume 9 CD.

"Happiness" - Remove the 0:36 intro and you have the promo edit.
"Dancing In The City" - Remove 2:28 to 2:47. The edit should be before the lyric "in" on the downbeat.
"Don't Ever Wanna Lose Ya" - If you already have the single version, just remove the first 13.5 seconds and start with the first drum hits.

Great info Aaron. Thanks.

Good to know. I'm pretty sure my LP has a printed time of 3:02, but now I'm curious to know if it has the original version or the remix. I do know that some pressings have the 12" version of "I Love The Nightlife," but I hadn't previously seen anything about "Body Heat" being swapped, too.
