    Candido Anthology - 12:30 version of Thousand Finger Man?

    There was a Japanese CD released of Candido's Salsoul tracks a few years ago. One interesting track was his Thousand Finger Man, the '79 version, which is indicated as being 12:30 in length on allmusicguide. Did anyone get this CD? And is this track a remix of the LP version, or did the producers of the CD make some edit to lengthen it from its original 9:07 time?

    This is funny you bring this up.. I won the CD earlier this year through Ebay. And, I posted the same question on the forum. Was there a 12+ minute promo 12" of this track? Nobody really seemed to know for sure.

    The track on the CD is EXCELLENT! It sounds like an original and not some remix. You have to hear it!! It is by far the BEST track on the CD. Skip the 80's funktified version of "Jingo" and the other "Jingo" is not the original version. "Dancin' and Prancin' " is the original 12" version, though.

    Thanks for that information. I'm glad its not some late 80's/90's remix. Does it sound like some parts are repeated, or is there a completely different section from the album mix?
