Apologies if this has been covered, but I just noticed some differences between the stereo LP and the Mono 45 versions that do not appear in the database. Namely, at 2:17, 2:26, and 2:32, there are "ooohhh's" from the Supremes that do not appear in the 45. Anybody notice any other differences? And should there be a designation in the database?

There are some pretty noticeable mix differences between the album & 45 versions of that song. To my ears it almost sounds like a different take.

Another Supremes song that has pretty obvious album/45 differences was "My World Is Empty Without You", especially the stringed instrument in the bridge.

Both just jumped out at me back in '67 when I bought the double-LP greatest hits collection. At the time I didn't know anything about mono vs stereo mixes, but learned quickly between this album & "Farewell To The First Golden Era" by the Mamas & Papas.

Do the mono CD versions listed in the database match the mono 45?

Answered my own question. Listened to one of the mono versions and no "oohs" are present.
