''Because time is not the reason that a station plays the 7 minute version of Light My Fire. The single of Light my fire sunds poorly edited and chopped.''
The original single was actually well edited. The version heard on WCBS-FM is just a simulated re-edit.
'' The single of Beginings at 2:50 which was a hit also does not. ''
There are many who would argue with that. FYI -The single edit of "Beginnings" has *11*! edit points, with some segments repeated, and has little resemblence to the LP version.
'' I wish I could explain the difference to you but Light My Fire is one of very few songs which must be played in its entirety. If the single edit of Light my fire were better artistically, then it could be played but its so poorly done that it makes the song sound scoped, as opposed to edited. ''
It's been my opinion that both versions of "Light My Fire" should be aired, perhaps dayparted. Maybe the same should go for "Beginnings".
