    Dee: I can't remember who told me this but apparently, the 7" is a really shitty pressing compared to the LP. Don't know if that matters or not but it killed my interest in the 45. (I don't have a copy for you though, sorry!)

    Hey O****r,

    The pressing of the 7in is actually allot louder than the lp version itself; it's a mono pressing too. I have had several copies in the past and they were always the playout versions for me (7in that is).

    Hope this was helpful and NO, I don't have anymore copies

    7" is louder, chunkier and most importantly mono-er.

    Is there a mono LP or all they all stereo? Anyone know?

    I've been told by someone who owned both (I've only got the 45, not for sale sorry) that the 45 was not only louder but a different & better mix than the LP version.

    Weird, I'll go with the collective wisdom here but yeah, I had two people tell me, the 7" version was crappy. Oh well, guess it's BACK on my want list now.

    In what way is it different/better? Toned down horns and turning up Grady's drums would be nice.

    The 7in is a mono copy and it mixed better than the lp version, those the horns do blaze pretty hard and the drums are hard as f**k!!!!!

    Also thanks to the handclapping, which is only featured on the 7 inch. So if you're looking for this track on wax, don't buy the lp!!

    There is hand clapping on the LP it's just not so loud. I think I'll stick with the LP, that 45 mix with the clapping louder than the drums does not sound all that imo.

    I'm not generally into clapping as it goes, but this intro is dope:

    That compared to this doesn't seem to be that much of an improvement.

    The 45 mix were they've drowned out Grady Tate's dope drums with that overbearing hand clapping is not any kind of improvement. It's like preferring a Coltrane edit where you can't hear him over some overdubbed vuvuzela...

    It's good Wants Forum conduct to PM the auction link directly to the person looking for the record, otherwise someone might cop it first.

    It's happened to me twice and there's nothing worse!
