My commercial 45, which is mono, has a listed time of (2:30), but an actual time of (2:39).

The DB still lists the time as (2:29). Has something changed or hasn't it been updated?

Jim can you please retime your 45 of Mirage as mine runs (2:29). My matrix number is 19137.

Pat, I'll back up Jim's timing. Both of my commercial copies run an actual (2:39) and are vinyl RCA pressings.

The copy I bought in 1967 has a hand-etched matrix number "19137 1" along with machine stamped "A1" and an "I" (Indianapolis RCA plant) in other spots in the deadwax. This copy came in the picture sleeve.

My second copy came in a generic Roulette factory sleeve. Its hand-etched matrix number is "ROULETTE     19137" with a machine-stamped "H" (Hollywood RCA plant) elsewhere in the deadwax.

My copy is Roulette R-4736 and has only 19137 hand written in the runout groooves with no pressing plant identification and it runs (2:29) so I guess there were two different pressings of this 45.
