Is there a difference between what's out there on CD and what's on the vinyl 45?

Has the 45 version ever appeared on CD?

John, I can answer your first question. The vinyl 45 is a dedicated mono mix, with the guitars mixed more upfront (compared with what you'd hear from a fold-down of the LP version.) The 45 fades out just before the coda on the end of the LP version kicks in.

BTW, the later Reprise Back-To-Back Hits reissue 45 (GRE 0746) runs a bit faster, and has a commensurately longer fade than the original 1970 Reprise 0911 single. Both 45s state a time of 2:45 and run an actual 2:43.

... different vocal mix, too... apparently neil hated the 45 mix, which is why it probably won't see the light of day on cd...
