I checked the version on the just released Complete motown Singles Collection 11B, and I have confirmed beyond any doubt that this does indeed have the absolute correct 45 mono mix. Pretty much every other CD I have heard or owned with it claiming to be a stereo single version is wrong.
I checked it against my original 45. |

Besides the track being mono, what else is unique on this mix (versus the stereo 45 mix currently listed in the database)? Or, what is wrong with the stereo single version? Just trying to determine what exactly is different between the two. The vinyl 45 starts with the "bum bum bum bum bum bum bum bum" introduction sung by Tito Jackson. Thought that was how you could indentify the 45 vs. the LP mix? |

Grant may have gotten "Sugar Daddy" and "Mama's Pearl" confused. Lay off the weed, Grant. ;)
Santi, aside from the "bum bum bum" at the beginning, there is at least one other difference in the 45 version: At about 2:38 on the single, Michael sings, "Let your conscience go, now, now." At the same spot in the LP version, he shouts, "Let your conscience gooooo!"

Back to the subject of "Sugar Daddy", were there any differences between the stereo and mono version? Was the mono on 11B a fold down?

It's a dedicated mono mix. The strings are mixed down on the mono 45.

another difference between the Mono single and Stereo album is the way Michael sings:
"..But don't you know good lovin’ is the spice of life.."
it's different. i would say it's an entirely different vocal take, but Michael being the professional he is sings them exactly the same way, it's hard to notice.
