Perhaps, those with the original 45 can answer this puzzling question. Was the 45 mono or stereo? I always thought the 45 was mono and was a different mix than stereo versions. Yet, the database doesn't indicate anything like that.
Perhaps, I am confused and mistaken. LOL. |

the 45 was mono, and quite a different mix from the stereo. It just "feels"
different! |

The mono 45 had more bass, louder drums, and louder
percussion. It is drier, too. |

I never found the entire mix to be radically different...
(but i admit its been a few years since i heard it) ....Yes, the usual different compression and EQ..but the most obvious mix difference is in the echo when he says "listen while i PLAY,play,play...etc. On the 45 it was more of a fast slap echo, but on the stereo LP it's a slower echo with the words spaced farther part (if that makes sense). And the 45 mix has only ever been mono. Same take and instruments, though. For example, there are no missing overdubs on the stereo. But the mixing difference overall would make stereo releases the "LP Version", to be technical. -MM |

I have the mono 45 mix on a European CD called, I think, "The Pye International Story." It's also got the mono mix of Lovin' Spoonful's "Daydream."

Oh, thanks Brian...i actually have that Pye collection,
but I forgot Green Tambourine was on there! (thought i only had the 45 mix on an old K-tel LP) The Pye 2-CD set is worth tracking down, it has many hard- to find 50' and 60's tracks on it. -MM |

The 45 version of this one is far superior to any hollow sounding stereo.
It just seems full (yeah its mono), the stereo seems empty. |

Problem is, most CD reissue producers are stuck on stereo.

This is true with a lot of Buddah singles from that era. |

When they did a Buddah two disc history some years ago they needed to use needle drops for single versions of the songs featured. "Down At Lulu's" and "Simon Says" are two I recall. Maybe they don't have the 45 masters of those recordings much like the ABC/Dunhill stuff?
