The 10th edition lists "Midnight Wind" by John Stewart as 2:32, which is WAY too short.

I just timed my CD and the listing should read 4:25 (LP version).

Yes Paul, I get it running (4:26) and it is an LP version since the 45 is an edit. Now while on the subject of the 45, the dj white label copy states a running time of (3:27) but actually runs (3:44) so does anyone have a copy of the commercial 45 that can verify the stated and actual running time of the commercial 45?

Hey Pat, I have the commercial 45 and it runs 3:44.

Pat:

In his Top Pop Annual book, Whitburn lists the single run time for "Midnight Wind" at 3:42. I notice most of his single run times are based on the printed times on the 45 labels, so there's a good chance the "Midnight Wind" 45 states a time of 3:42 on its label. Maybe Paul can help back me up on this.

Yes Todd, the label shows 3:42.

Thanks, Paul. So, Pat, I guess it looks like only the DJ copies have the major discrepancy between the printed and actual run time.
