What is the diff in the lp and 45 version and is the single version available on CD anywhere?

Well, I can say that I downloaded the song from a P2P service YEARS ago. And it was the same as my 45-rpm disc. The downloaded sounded clean, like a CD. So I would think it has to be somewhere.

The mono 45 has a ton more reverb added, evident right at the start.

I must admit I've never come across a mono pressing of this song. My copy on 45 is a stereo pressing from Capitol.

I know that in the '69-'71 time period, Canada 45s were on occasion
different from their US counterparts in terms of mono/stereo. Jody, is your
copy Canadian?

Yes sir, it is! Though I would've thought we'd take the lead from the US in most cases. Is Bill's copy a promo by chance?

Yes mine is a promo but it only has a "P" designation on the label, not a (PRO) designation and number, meaning that it should match the US stock 45.

Indeed it does match, Bill. My U.S. stock 45 is mono and is similarly "Dexterized."

Unless someone did an excellent needle drop.

Good to know, Jody, thanks.

I have this in mono on a promo compilation, but it sounds like it could be a disc dub to me. I hear near crackles, but I hear distortion, and the whole thing is rather tinny sounding.

In addition to the added reverb which Bill pointed out upthread, it should be pointed out that the U.S. 45 is a dedicated mono mix. The backing track on the stereo mix is basically mono, with the two vocal parts split between the two channels. Compared to the mono 45, the vocals are less prominent when the stereo track is summed to mono.

The upshot of the stereo mix is that the ragtime piano becomes more noticeable throughout the entire song and not just during the instrumental bridge.
