Gene,
The stereo on the Super Hits Of The Seventies series sounds
nice. The best mono is a nice clean 45 dub since it's a
dedicated mix.

To my ears, it sounds best on Rhino's Have A Nice Day Vol. 6 (1990). The same analog transfer is used on:
  • Time-Life's Superhits Vol. 16 The Early '70s (1992) - left/right channels swapped
  • Time-Life's AM Gold Vol. 13 The Early '70s (1995) - is a repackaging of Superhits disc, so also has left/right channels swapped
  • Rhino's 2-CD Dr. Demento 25th Anniversary Collection (1995)
  • Varese's Dick Bartley On The Radio Vol. 2 (1997) - digitally exactly 0.239 dB quieter
There's a different analog transfer on Capricorn's 3-CD Scepter Records Story (1992), which I didn't like as much as Have A Nice Day.

Sounds like I've got the best option out there. Thanks, John and Ron!

The "Have A Nice Day" volume 6 has the revised lyric but it
pitched up a bit to match the rest of the song. I used to
have one of the promos from years back. And WCOL in
Columbus played the revised version and man did it stick
out like a sore thumb when listening!
And it still hit #1 on WCOL!
Yeah one of he lost hits so to speak.

Gary - The version on Have A Nice Day is the LP version, which includes the original lyrics. All the versions on CD are the LP version.

I just listened again. My copy has the "both of us fine as
we could be" lyric. I can send it along if you'd like.

Are you sure?

The lyrics in question are at 1:54. The stereo LP version (which is on my copy of Have A Nice Day) and the mono commercial 45 version (unavailable on CD) both have "stomach was full as it could be". The mono promo 45 version (also unavailable on CD) has "woke up as fine as we could be".

Unless there's another pressing of Have A Nice Day Vol. 6 that I haven't encountered (which is kinda doubtful considering how long I've been working with the Rhino compilations), I think your file may be mislabeled.

the weird thing is, checking it says "Have A Nice Day Vol
6" when the playlist info comes up.
So assumed that is where it is from.
I ripped song from CD, which I no longer have.
The only other place it could have come from is the Time
Life Series.
Wherever it came from, was surprised to hear a pitch
corrected version of the song, where the verse edit fits
right in.
Have you heard of any compilation that would have the
revised lyric?

The revised "woke up as fine as we could be" lyric, speed-corrected or otherwise, has never been released on a commercially available CD. I also highly doubt that it's been released on a promo CD of any type.

The Time-Life releases also have the LP version with the original lyrics. I don't know where your file would have originated, but it's almost certainly not from a CD.

So I gotta wonder where it came from.
If it's a needle drop, one of the cleanest I ever heard.
It's really clean stereo.
I just listened again, and right where the revised lyric
is, it drops to mono for 2 seconds, then back to full
stereo.
Whoever did this deserves applause for his work.
Funny what you run across on da internet!
