"I Woke up in Love..." - Partridge Family

Message Topic Search Topic Options Post Reply Create New Topic Printable Version Translate Topic

   The actual commercial 45 run time of the Partridge Family's "I Woke Up in Love This Morning" is 2:44.  (Timing info once again courtesy of good ole Jim.  The printed record label time is 2:43.)  I post this because database CD run times all run at least :04 shorter than the 45 length.  This leads me to believe the LP length must be shorter.  So does anyone have a copy of the Partridge Family 1971 parent vinyl LP Sound Magazine who can pass along the song's actual run time on it?

	Has it been determined if this is a length issue or a speed issue?

	FYI I compared the commercial 45 (Bell 45 130) with the "Greatest Hits" CD. (Arista ARCD-8604) This is a "length issue." But I don't have "The Partridge Family Sound Magazine" LP. So I can't answer about the 45 vs. the LP. --abagon

	the cd version from 'the definitive collection' cd runs slightly slower than the vinyl 45....you can pitch up that cd version by a little to match the speed, but you'll still be short 0:02 (2:41 sped up cd vers, versus 2:43 vinyl 45 version)...my vinyl 45 sounds, to me to run 2:43...
