"Musicology" original vinyl vs reissue

Does the recent "Musicology" album vinyl reissue have the exact same fadeout edit on "If Eye Was The Man In Ur Life" on the ending of vinyl 2/side C as on the original UK promo vinyl? Or is the edit different?

First time I hear of such a version, no mention on Pvault either http://princevault.com/in...In_Ur_Life

Is it supposed to be on this: https://www.discogs.com/f...se/1338117 ?

Yes. "If Eye Was The Man In Ur Life" ends side C and "On The Couch" kicks off side D on the vinyl version, so since they are sequenced together with no silent break inbetween on the original CD release, they're instead separated on the vinyl version with a fade-out end at the end of "If Eye Was The Man In Ur Life". But not sure if it's exactly the same fadeout on both the original promo vinyl and the reissue.

Well, that's quite a discovery, so thank you yes

.

I am indeed curious to know if they did that on the reissue, as well as on the other 2004 LP versions (Discogs is down this very second, but IIRC there was at least another LP version back in 2004).

.

I also hope a rip eventually surfaces, as I never ran into one so far.
