mjzee Posted July 21, 2022 Report Share Posted July 21, 2022 Just started listening to this box, put out by Atlantic in 2008 and compiled by Joel Dorn. Already, on side 1, there's something interesting: the track Listen Here by Eddie Harris is 7:42. The original, on the album Mean Greens, is only 3:37. No indication in the book that this is the unedited version, but it appears to be. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
sonnymax Posted July 21, 2022 Report Share Posted July 21, 2022 If I'm not mistaken, the longer take was recorded a year later and appears on The Electrifying Eddie Harris. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

danasgoodstuff Posted July 22, 2022 Report Share Posted July 22, 2022 Yes, and the Mean Greens version isn't an edit of the Electrifying version, although edits of the Electrifying version do exist. And there are live versions of varying length. And aren't some in different time signatures too, 5/4 versus 4/4, or am I imagining that?

JSngry Posted July 23, 2022 Report Share Posted July 23, 2022 I got the hit single 45 version, mastered gloriously hot and boomy as fuck for your favourite club's jukeboxing satisfaction. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
