Listening to this song from a few discs, I hear two distinct mixes.
The most obvious difference is audible around 0.08, on the first group "Love, love, love" vocal. Here's how I hear it:
Mix 1: Vocals panned hard left
- Yellow Submarine (original release)
- "1"
Mix 2: Vocals mixed in stereo
- Yellow Submarine Songtrack
- TM Century Golddisc 405
Both are stereo, so I suspect neither is the original mono 45 mix.

Eric,
All Beatles singles prior to "Get Back" were dedicated mono mixes ("Get Back was issued in mono in the U.K. but stereo in the U.S.). The stereo mix for "All You Need Is Love", done 29 October 1968 for the Yellow Submarine LP, not only runs a bit shorter, it does not capture the feel of the mono mix.
The song was indeed remixed for the Yellow Submarine Songtrack, IMHO, much improved from the original.

David, this might have been answered in a different thread, but I've often wondered about Beatles stereo mixes, too. Do you know which mixes on CD are the original stereo British LP mixes and which ones were done later? I've long suspected my Red and Blue albums on CD have "new" stereo mixes, possibly done in the '80s.

Help!, Rubber Soul, and Revolver were all remixed. Their original stereo mixes have never appeared on CD, except for Rubber Soul, where early Canadian pressings for some reason used the original mix. (And later, most of the Rubbers Soul songs would be issued in their original stereo mixes on "Capitol Albums Vol. 2."
I believe "Eight Days a Week" made its stereo CD debut on the "Red" album, but whether that was a new remix or the original stereo mix, I don't know. As far as I know, everything else appears on the Red and Blue albums in its original stereo mix. However, the Red and Blue albums on CD do seem to have quite a bit of No-Noise added.

AFAIK, the following tracks were remixed for the RED CD (the first song essentially bringing the vocal track center):
All My Loving
Can't Buy Me Love
A Hard Day's Night
I've read that Eight Days a Week was remixed for the RED CD too (correct, Brian, it was its stereo CD debut as were Can't Buy Me Love and A Hard Day's Night), although I can not tell the diff from the original stereo mix.
