Allegedly, all known copies of "Go Now" are from a needledrop of an acetate. Does anyone have a better source for this claim than a forum post stating that "the master tape reads 'dubbed from disc'"?

A former Decca engineer was cited as searching for but being unable to find a higher-quality recording of the song in the 1970s:

I have only ever heard it sounding like mud with the
hastened fade out on the last chord (assumingly to disguise
it's vinyl source).

Was this tracked at Decca or did Decca buy it from a
smaller label?
