	my commercial 45 issued as mercury 72180 lists a run time on the label as 2:13 but actually only runs 1:58....it has 'YW 29117 5' machine stamped in the run out groove......if you fade the rhino 'best of' cd version for 0:12 from 1:46 to 1:58 you can effectively re-create my vinyl 45 version.....looks like there are two different versions of this 45 commercial issued....can anyone else post their vinyl 45 info so we can get an idea of which version appears more often....

	Jim, your pressing (according to my notes) should be an alternate mix, sounding like it is missing one channel of the stereo mix, but in mono. Ed's pressing is the more common hit mix (which is also how my promo 45 has it).
	Live in stereo.

	I appreciate that info, Tom. Gotta get me the more common 45 pressing, as this one happens to be one of my personal faves by her.....

	Today, I was listening to a 45 playing on YouTube and comparing it with the stereo versions. Even if you fold the stereo to mono, the vocals on the 45 are dry compared with the stereo versions which are drowning in echo.

	A CD compilation of Lesley Gore's hit mixes is long overdue.

	Can anyone confirm what I believe is correct? 'Golden Hits Of Lesley Gore' contains mainly Dennis Drake remixes of Lesley's hits. 'It's My Party The Mercury Anthology' contains mainly original stereo LP mixes' 'Best Of Lesley Gore Sunshine Lollipops & Rainbows' on Rhino contains mostly original stereo LP mixes + a version of "California Nights" WITHOUT Haeco-CSG processing. Any comments welcome! Andy

	I would love to see a mono only release of all the Lesley Gore hits.

	Yes to singles only for Lesley. I am pretty sure "You Don't Own Me' has vocal differences between the stereo LP and 45 mono mixes. Do not remember the details. I am still hoping for a Johnny Rivers set. But I fear the mono ship has sailed.

	C J, I have it that the original 45 and LP feature a double-tracked vocal whereas an alternate version features a single-tracked vocal and appeared on her 1965 (mono) "Golden Greats" LP.
