I can't find a stereo version of this song on any official release. If anyone knows where it is at on CD or digital kindly
point me in the right direction...


If you don't mind the solo part in the middle being different, it's easily found on Rhino's Super Hits of The 70s: Have a
Nice Day Volume 1.

The version on Rhino's Have A Nice Day cd is not the LP
version?

According to a 2018 post above from davidclark, the Have A Nice Day stereo version is from a 1970 UK compilation LP called The Tony Macaulay And John MacLeod Song Book. We believe that this 1970 LP was the first time the song was mixed to true stereo.

According to 2008 posts above from Kent T and satchdr, the US LP version is the same as the US 45 but in fake stereo.

That's right. My information about that UK LP came from a reliable source. So,
the Rhino HAND is not the LP version, as that UK LP was not issued in the US
nor at the time of the 1969 45.

My U.S. Janus Records Flying Machine LP (DJ copy) features "Smile A Little Smile For Me" in mono, and sounds exactly
like the mono single. The follow single "Baby Make It Soon" is in stereo on my LP.
