Re: (TV) Marquee Moon ... a different version ?



I don't think it's that dramatic. I believe the original vinyl faded out the
track at 9:58, while the CD version of the track clocks in at 10:43 - the
entire song, in other words. Apparently, this was a mistake made in the CD
mastering; Verlaine had originally chosen the fade-out purposefully.

On the current Elektra CD, it still lists a running time of 9:58, but the full
track is there. On the Japanese BEST OF TELEVISION AND TOM VERLAINE CD, the
running time is listed correctly at 10:43 (originally leading people to think
that there was an 'alternate mix' of this track on the Japanese CD - not true,
I found out $38 later).
