According to my good friend Jim, the commercial 45 run time for The Beatles' "Ticket to Ride" is 3:04 (the printed 45 label time is 3:02), which is in the ballpark of the database CD entries containing the mono hit version running 3:01-3:03. However, stereo CD appearances run 3:06-3:08, which I suspect may be reflective of a slightly longer stereo vinyl LP length.
That said, would anyone who has a Beatles' Help vinyl LP handy please pass along the run time of "Ticket to Ride"?

My UK Parlophone copy of Help in Stereo runs 3:07 on this track.

Thanks, Kent. I believe the U.S. LP release is identical to the U.K. one, but hopefully someone who has a U.S. pressing can chime in and confirm.

The printed time for the fake-stereo "Ticket To Ride" on my stereo copy of Help! (Capitol SMAS 2386) is (3:03) and the actual time is (3:02.9).

Thanks, Yah Shure! So it would appear then the U.S. 45 and LP of "Help" are approximately the same length, while the stereo U.K. LP length is several seconds longer.
