Does anybody have the story on "Twistin' Matilda" by Jimmy Soul. Peaked at
#22 in 1962.

There is a note in the database that says that the 45 runs 2:34 and there's a
video on YouTube that confirms this.

... But, according to the database, the 3 CD appearances of the song all run
2:52. Also, all versions of the song on iTunes run about 2:52.

There is no notation in the database for the 3 2:52 appearances. Is this 45
vs. album version? Or were there 2 45s? Anybody know?
