   My commercial 45, confirmed as Imperial 66159, has a listed time of (2:58), but an actual time of (3:03). My 45 is styrene, with deadwax info of "IM 6187". FYI, this timing correction now bring the song into line, length-wise, with the current database CDs that include this song.

	There have been any number of variations in how the "Batman dummy" shout at the end is handled. The original & gold-label reissue 45s faded the audience just after that shout, later reissue 45s as well as the GH vinyl dumped audio right after Johnny sang "secret agent man" at the end. I have an audio file (unknown source) where the Batman line was edited out, but an unintelligible comeback from Johnny was left in. I've also heard a stereo version with the Batman line left intact. Hard to keep track of this one without a program!
