Even though it's not listed in the database, it ranked at #39 on the Hot 100 and 11 on the R&B chart in 1976.
Does anyone have a copy of the commercial or promo 45 to provide an actual run time? The label on both says 3:28. |

Plus has anyone found the 45 version on CD? So far all I've seen is the LP version (that runs over four minutes) on CD. ------------- Santi Paradoa Miami, Florida |

The 45 edit does not exist on CD but I have the 45. I
have to look for it to give you an exact run time. Years ago, however, I recreated the 45 edit from the CD album length. I used the "Gratitude" remastered CD for reference. Here's the instructions for recreating the 45 edit: 1) Keep the two quick drumstick clicks at the beginning. 2) Edit out first four bars up to :13 seconds. Your edit should be at the beginning of the four-note musical build. 3) Keep the song up to 3:04. Edit on the downbeat and remove section up to 3:19. 4) Start abrupt fade at 3:45 and end at 3:53 ------------- |

It helped me some. I just wanted to know if the 45 edit had appeared on CD yet. I'm not attempting an edit myself tho. I can live with the LP version for now. ------------- Santi Paradoa Miami, Florida |

Confused. Do I need to work backwards--my file's already (3:42) before I can even fade from (3:45) to (3:53)? ------------- Doug --------------- All of the good signatures have been taken. |

Oh, wait, when I wrote my instructions, I didn't take the
edits into account, and I was visually going through the clock. Sorry. Start your fade at 3:18 and end it at 3:25. ------------- |

The edit may exist on CD after all. Check track 12 on
either of the following two discs already in the database: Eclipse Music Group 64667 Whole Lotta...Soul: 1976-1977 Eclipse Music Group 64667 R&B Relix 1976-1977 Stumbled upon this just today. Don't know how I missed it prior. These releases are from the late '90s. The track runs (3:27). ------------- Santi Paradoa Miami, Florida |
