Sammy Johns Chevy Van 45 run time

I know there's already a long thread on this song and Chevy
Van came up for discussion recently among several of us.

In the other thread, the vinyl LP run time was posted by
Tim Lyman as being 2:58. Gary Mack, (RIP), mentioned
that the actual run time of his 45 was 2:54. Abagon
mentioned his 45 actually ran 2:53.

For my own comparison, Ed was kind enough to send a file of
his 45 and Andy from a Sessions vinyl LP called 33
Golden Hits. Both of those run 2:54, so I'd say
the 45 run time for the database should be 2:54, not 2:58.
