Listed 45 time for both stock and promo is (2:30); both my copies definitely go to (2:35). The "version police" might wanna give this 45 a listen to see if it's the same mix as the stereo (2:32) CD versions; I have my doubts.

The stereo and mono mixes are different. The vocals are a bit louder on the mono single, and the horns are lower. The mono single is a bit drier, too.

i just A/B'ed the vinyl 45 to the best of cd and they're
the same except for the mono/stereo differences.....in my
opinion, just because drums are more upfront or horns are
blended back, if all the instrumentation is identical and
nothing is omitted or altered, i will always chalk it up to
the inherent mono stereo mixing differences and that they
are the same, except the mono 45 does run 0:02 longer (2:33
vrs 2:35)

I can't recall if this has been discussed elsewhere on the message board, but I've long wondered when a mix difference(s) between a mono 45 and stereo LP is considered significant enough to warrant a "45 mix" or "LP mix" comment? I'm not clear as to whether this distinction is made only when echo or reverb is added to one of the mixes, or if it also applies in cases where vocals or instruments are panned way up or way down from one mix to the other. (And even in the latter situation, how much of a volume difference would officially qualify as a mix difference?) If Pat has specific criteria in determining when to use "45/LP mix" comments in the database, I'd very much be interested in obtaining some clarification on this.

It is all subjective Todd.
