Maybe somebody can help me with this. The stereo version of this song has an added sax track, This had led me to believe that it was not the original 45 version, since the versions listed in the DB (or at least the ones I have) do not have the sax. However, I've just discovered I have two 45 versions of this song; one with and one without a sax track and both with the same #: King 5171. Maybe someone can explain the differences so that the DB can be updated.

First pressing lacks the sax track. Second pressing onwards have the sax track, the Stereo issue followed the second pressing.

Thanks for the info, Kent. I appreciate it. Do you know which of these pressings is considered "the" hit version?

The pressing with the Sax solo is the hit pressing. The one without the solo was pressed only a brief time and pulled for the common version.
