America "Sister Golden Hair"

   I just picked up a DJ copy and noticed two subtle differences on the mono side. Reverb is cranked higher than the stereo side, and at 2:42 it sounds like the background vocalists come in a split second earlier than the stereo version. Speed is about the same. 

I don't know if it's enough of a difference to warrant a notation in the database, I just bring it up for the group.

	Another good catch, Bill. You're on a roll these days. I would assume that only the DJ 45s featured a mono version, since by the mid-70s, most songs were stereo. Is this correct? IMO, the extra reverb is worth noting in the song title section of the database, even though it's only a difference on the promo 45.
