The database says LP version, but have been told Mama's Pearl on The Jacksons Story is the stereo 45 mix.
Is this true?

The database says the 45 version is on Anthology, but all pressings on the download services I think are the LP version.

How can one tell the difference?

As I recall, a (narrow) stereo remix matching the 45 was done for the Jackson 5 Greatest Hits album that came out in the early 70s. I thought that was what's on "The Jacksons Story" too, but maybe I was misinformed.

I believe you are correct in that the version on the Jacksons Story is the 45 version. You have to be careful with the Anthology situation because there were two different cd's issued called Anthology. The Motown 6194 Anthology has the 45 version while the Motown 012159650 Anthology has the LP version. I would guess the download services are using the newer Anthology which is the LP version.

a quick way to tell the difference between the 45 and LP version is that there is a "bum bum bum bum bum bum bum bum" introduction sung by Tito Jackson on the 45.

only two CD's feature it in mono, no stereo version has the same introduction..

Anthology 1986 and Jacksons Story 2004

This comes as great news to me... I've been wanting the 45 version of "Mama's Pearl" on CD, but I held off buying the 1986 Anthology CD set because the song fades out :09 too soon. Now, thanks to you guys, I've now learned I already have the complete 45 version on the Jacksons Story disc I bought four years ago!

Hey, it's always exciting to cross an item off the "wish list" without having to lift a finger! :-)

My copy, which I grabbed at Napster, runs 3:09 on The Jacksons Story.

On my copy, just noticed you can hear some tape hiss at the end. Is it that way on the CD, too?

Hi Waldo,

Could you please edit/clarify your last post?

It's confusing to me, and might be confusing to others.

Thank you.

Andy
