phillyDaveG Posted June 22, 2009 Posted June 22, 2009 Hello all, I was just playing the excellent; Peggy Gaines "Sweet way of living" (Ref-o-ree), and realised it was very, very short. Although the label says 2m40s, I timed it, and it's actually just 89seconds long! Is this the shortest time for a 45 release, or do you know better?
Guest hatman Posted June 22, 2009 Posted June 22, 2009 Trey J's - I found it all in you - Tee Gem Runs it very close then at 1min 37 Still what a great sound!!!!
22ndsoul Posted June 22, 2009 Posted June 22, 2009 Always thought Don Ray - Born a loser - was one of the shortest,sure someone will have an exact time.
phillyDaveG Posted June 22, 2009 Author Posted June 22, 2009 Always thought Don Ray - Born a loser - was one of the shortest,sure someone will have an exact time. Close but no cigar - 1min 46s
Guest Posted June 22, 2009 Posted June 22, 2009 nothing lasts forever - Staple singers - Epic 45 that lasts a total of 1min 14secs.
Steve G Posted June 22, 2009 Posted June 22, 2009 (edited) The UK instrumental version of Billy Harner "What about the music". 67 seconds I think. But I have a James Brown promo announcement on a Smash label single 7 seconds Edited June 22, 2009 by Steve G

Blunny Posted June 22, 2009 Posted June 22, 2009 Syl Johnson - Do You Know What Love Is ? It's certainly well under 2 minutes.
