Original ABC Records #11247
Debut 11/15/69
Peaked at #8 on the Billboard Hot 100 Chart.
Produced by: Steve Barri
This is the POWERFUL HOT Mono mix that you can only hear from the original 45 RPM record. Only the wimpy stereo mix can be heard today on the radio and from CD's and iTunes. What happened is that ABC Records destroyed their mono masters thinking that no one would be interested in them in the future.
Turns out these HOT mono mixes were far superior to the stereo mixes!

@storrs19 I think it was probably ABC's mastering engineers, since the individual producers were responsible for the mono and stereo master mixes. When I think of ABC albums of the late '60s-early '70s, no matter who the artist I think of the albums as being very bass-heavy, scooped-mids, like it's ABC's "house style" or something.

This was the same ABC management that erased over tapes of television shows during this era, most notably game shows and soap operas.
One thing I miss about the old days of rock 'n roll was the fact that all the major broadcast networks (TV/radio) as well as every major movie studio had a record label.
I am starting to like these old songs more and more every time I hear them.
