There appears to be some confusion regarding the cd appearances of Mr. Businessman by Ray Stevens. The Varese Sarabande cd titled "Even Stevens" includes what are called the LP version of this song, and the 45 version. However my version of Mr. Businessman from the vinyl LP of "Even Stevens" features what I call the 45 version and not what Varese Sarabande calls the LP version which is a slightly different vocal take. I agree that what Varese calls the 45 version is truly the 45 version.

Could there be 2 different pressings of this vinyl LP "Even Stevens" that would justify what the cd "Even Stevens" calls the LP version? Unfortunately the alternate vocal version that I am speaking of appears on many cd's released to date including the 20th Century Masters cd.
