i'm currently reviewing the rascals 45's and noticed that
there is a lp/45 difference on the song "groovin'" even
though the run times are similar......can anyone tell me
what the differences are?

The harmonica seems to disappear in sections on the 45
version (and I think the 45 might be a little slower).

Also, the harmonica was completely re-recorded for the
stereo LP version. The backing track and vocals are the
same, but for whatever reason they wanted to replace the
harmonica.

And also, the mono LP has the original harmonica solo as well. Stereo LP harmonica to my ear grates.

Re-recorded harmonica, or was the stereo version just an
earlier take that wasn't quite as good? To most, the mono
mix has the superior harmonica performance.

Does anyone have a copy of the single of this that has the song in Spanish on one side & Italian on the other? Dunno if it was ever released commercially, but one station I worked at had it on a promo. We'd play it once in a while. I'd be curious to know if that had the same production as the English single.
Somewhere I have a dub of the Spanish side, but don't currently have a working reel-to-reel deck.

Hykker,
Is that tape 1/2 track or full track, 3 3/4 or faster. If so, I have a working machine if you wish to hear it. And a Tascam CD Recorder. PM me if you would like the tape transferred. No charge to do it.
