	I was just checking both sides of my DJ 45 on Rock Me Gently. The stereo side to my ears runs 3:28. The mono side runs 3:27. There is a difference in pitch also, with the mono side at a slower pitch that the stereo side. About .03%. This causes the mono side to have an earlier fade out point in the song that the stereo side does. I checked a random CD copy of Rock Me Gently (AM Gold Time-Life) which is pitched a little slower than the mono side of the DJ 45. I don't have a stock 45 so I don't know how that would compare.
