neil sedaka let’s go steady again

I have the 45 version of "Let's Go Steady Again" in mono
from iTunes Canada from The Best of Neil Sedaka,
which has a copyright line of '(p)1996 BMG UK & Ireland
Ltd', although the release date is given as June 20, 2003,
which is the release year Discogs gives for the physical CD.

Best-Of-Neil-Sedaka

Of the seven Neil Sedaka compilations on iTunes Canada
containing the song, three have the 45 version, and all
three are from 'BMG UK & Ireland'.

davidclark wrote: I am willing to bet that the undubbed, longer version first appeared in the CD era, when CD compilers began to back to the original tapes. Probably first appeared on "All Time Greatest Hits" (1988).

If the stereo version did not appear until a 1988 US
release, that might explain why all 'UK & Ireland' releases
appear to have the mono 45 version.
