Jim, given the fact that it's on YouTube, who knows what the source is. Ed was kind enough to send me a copy of the CD version he has. I will do a more careful comparison to see if I notice any differences. It's highly possible that some (but not all) of the vocals are different between the stereo version and the single. This was the case with "Magic Carpet Ride," as is pointed out in another thread; the first verse and first chorus are a different take, but the second verse and second chorus match between the mono and stereo.

available on whatever CD that was ripped from.

The stereo CD version Ed sent me matches the 45 vocal take exactly, voice cracking and all. Other than mono/stereo differences, the 45 edits out 0:10 to 0:13 of the stereo LP version. At first, this seems like another one of those "why bother?" edits, but I can see why they did it. If you count measures of music, the full length version has 10 measures in the first half the intro. Typically, the number of measures in any given section of a song (in 4/4 time) would be evenly divisible by 4 (and obviously 10 is not).

As a side note, I had forgotten about how great this song is!

The 45 single though does have a unique mono mix. It's not a fold down and has more powerful low bass. If there are two different 45 issues, would not be the first time with The Chambers Brothers.

And maybe the mix is what makes the vocals stand out more.
On the stereo mix, the vocals sound buried.
