My commercial 45 (confirmed as A&M 787, is styrene, with deadwax of "A+M 1168") has a listed time of (2:48), but an actual time of (2:54). FYI, all 6 of the current database CDs that include this song feature the (4:20)+ stereo LP version.

I can't answer it. Both US vinyl LPs of "Four Siders" and "Greatest Hits" include "studio version."

Thanks for the info, ed! I'm a Herb's fan and impressed with hearing "Live version" on You Tube.

This one is really not a "live" recording. The 45 just had some fake crowd noise dubbed-in. Check out the explanation under the album "Going Places" at http://www.tijuanabrass.com/tjb1.php
