okay, i a have yet another meta-data question
2005-11-22 32622, 2005
yllona is listening to Tell Me Something Good (Alt. Take) by Rufus featuring Chaka Khan from Rags to Rufus (1975) (1:17 / 4:38)
2005-11-22 32654, 2005
yllona
this song was actually the 45rpm release. the Alt. take didn't exist until the CD release (re-release) so what should i do?
2005-11-22 32620, 2005
yllona
there was know alt take on the LP
2005-11-22 32632, 2005
yllona
is there an AR for 45 RPM (or 78 RPM) release
2005-11-22 32651, 2005
yllona
many R &B songs (incl major hits) were released as 45 RPM only. there was no LP release
2005-11-22 32652, 2005
PRAEst76
Did they still have 78s in the 1970s?
2005-11-22 32633, 2005
PRAEst76
I think back in those days albums weren't the big thing they are now and often artists albums would be compilations of singles.
2005-11-22 32657, 2005
PRAEst76
Not sure if there is an AR for alternative versions though
2005-11-22 32617, 2005
yllona
no 78s in the '70s, but 45s were *huge*
2005-11-22 32657, 2005
PRAEst76
Not really, they were about the size of a kitten.
2005-11-22 32625, 2005
PRAEst76
Though it depends if you are talking about 7" or 12"
2005-11-22 32636, 2005
yllona
45's are the reason that itunes downloads are priced at $.99 (steve jobs is my age)
2005-11-22 32651, 2005
PRAEst76
12" 45rpm singles didn't really take off until the 80s
2005-11-22 32626, 2005
nikki__ yawns again
2005-11-22 32637, 2005
PRAEst76
Why? Did you buy a one sided 45 single with no liner-notes and DRM for $.99 back in the day?
2005-11-22 32649, 2005
yllona
prae: in the US 45's were 7", and 12 " were 33 1/3 rpm
2005-11-22 32619, 2005
PRAEst76
LPs tended to be 33 1/3. Most 12" singles were 45rpm
2005-11-22 32641, 2005
PRAEst76
Hence why we don't call them 45s :)
2005-11-22 32642, 2005
yllona
nope. not here, 12" were 33 1/3
2005-11-22 32650, 2005

PRAEst76
Yep. Loads of them.
2005-11-22 32622, 2005
PRAEst76
they were fairly standard during the 1980s
2005-11-22 32636, 2005
yllona
ah, the '80s
2005-11-22 32637, 2005

Or am I living in a fantasy world again?

nah, let me e-mail some old school DJs
2005-11-22 32619, 2005
yllona
could be separate US/Euro releases
2005-11-22 32659, 2005
yllona
Vinyl was released in Europe long after it ceased in the US
2005-11-22 32657, 2005
yllona
but really all my 12" dance singles from the '70s are 33 1/3
2005-11-22 32600, 2005
PRAEst76
Actually there's been a bit of resurgence lately. Sales of 7" singles have risen in the past few years.
2005-11-22 32630, 2005
PRAEst76
I think I only own a couple of 12" singles from the 1970s. Probably both Sparks.
2005-11-22 32644, 2005
PRAEst76
I think they are 45rpm.
2005-11-22 32611, 2005
yllona
yeah, europe had the EP and the CD single thing that never caught on here
2005-11-22 32619, 2005
PRAEst76
But I can't check at the moment as the shelf i keep my vinyl on might collapse if I touch it. Or breathe near it.
2005-11-22 32646, 2005
yllona
heh, i got you there vinyl is bitch to store
2005-11-22 32616, 2005
yllona
anyway the $.99 itunes download was truly based on the priced on cost of a 45rpm, back in the day

my first 45s cost $.94 for an A & B side (two songs) limited to about 3:30 minutes max
2005-11-22 32652, 2005
PRAEst76
Yeah, but you got two songs.
2005-11-22 32609, 2005
yllona
so you had 45 single releases and LP releases (longer duration)
2005-11-22 32656, 2005
slaad joined the channel
2005-11-22 32622, 2005

two songs yep. "B" sides were (in) famous. some/many times the B sides were the better songs
2005-11-22 32630, 2005
yllona
as i said above there were also songs released exclusively as 45s... never appeared on LP
2005-11-22 32646, 2005
PRAEst76
I used to find that quite often. It's something I miss. Seems to be quite rare that you get a proper "B Side" song on a single. Usually you get a bunch of lame remixes or live tracks. No wonder single sales are flagging.
2005-11-22 32610, 2005
yllona
until the compilations.... and that's a whole 'nother story'
2005-11-22 32654, 2005
yllona
here's one that was never released on LP, but became one of aretha's msot famous songs
2005-11-22 32612, 2005
yllona is listening to Day Dreaming by Aretha Franklin from The Very Best of Aretha Franklin: The 70's (1994) (0:14 / 4:00)
2005-11-22 32655, 2005

oops wrong song, this one
2005-11-22 32606, 2005
yllona is listening to Spanish Harlem by Aretha Franklin from The Very Best of Aretha Franklin: The 70's (1971) (0:05 / 3:33)
