Yes, I have many examples of this very phenomenon etched into my brain. A 
related thing for me is that I had many 8-tracks that broke up songs between 
tracks (e.g., the Yes song  called 'Gates of Delirium' off the Relayer album 
took up all of tracks 1 & 2 and part of track 3). When I listen to intact 
version of the songs now (usually on vinyl) I still anticipate the gaps.

Subject: [tips] Memory for Record Skipping

When I was young we played vinyl records which after many plays would
skip.  Like many people, I was a big fan of the Beatles, so I'll use them
as an example.  Now that I've been buying Beatles music, I often find when
I play their songs I get to certain places in the music and I EXPECT it to
skip, or at least I have a very clear memory that the song used to skip at
exactly this point.  Not sure where this fits into psychology other than
memory in a broad sense, but I thought I'd throw it out there.

Other people experienced this?

Michael
