There are indeed different video versions with Daryl singing and with John sining. As of a couple of weeks ago, both were available on YouTube. I believe there are slight differences in the video between the two versions as well (different takes at certain points).

You are correct on all of the above. A couple of years ago I did an A/B comparison of both videos and surprisingly there were many little differences.

Yep, and it's John's version! I always wondered why they didn't use Daryl's. Maybe his side of the 45 was scratched!

I figured there had to be different versions of the video, because I remember them playing it on MTV back in the day and I didn't remember it being the John vocal track.

I seem to recall GoldDisc AX1 has John's version on the "red" disc (older version) and Daryl's version on the GoldDisc3. I definitely have copies of both versions, and both are from vinyl, and at the time I dubbed them I couldn't find any other source.

Thanks for the iTunes tip on this recording. Seems like iTunes has far more Digital 45's than some of the other services.

Ah, that could be. I was only familiar with the red AX1 disc. I didn't realize that Daryl's version existed on another GoldDisc

Yes, I'm 99% sure of this, Rich, especially since I don't know how else I would have ended up with a cleaned up vinyl dub of Daryl's version (complete with noise reduction). It's burned onto a disc with a bunch of other Christmas songs that were also on that same GoldDisc.

I have the US pressing vinyl 45. I purchased it from an online US used record store in the 90's. RCA JB-14259 red vinyl "NOT FOR SALE" the listed time "2:09" Jingle Bell Rock From Daryl/Jingle Bell Rock From John

I ask a simple question.
How did public get this item in 1983 while this was "NOT FOR SALE" record? Is this a Santa Claus present?

There were no copies of the 7" record for sale, unless a seller happened to come across some promo copies and was willing to sell them. I suppose the song may have been issued on a Christmas compilation.

Thank you for the answer, aaron! I image that the record company have given the 45 to retail record stores for free at the time, perhaps.

FYI. Concerning 80's Christmas song, "Christmas Time by BRYAN ADAMS" was released as commercial 45 in Japan.
