Alternate mono mix not released in US until the 1980 Rarities LP. This version also appears on the bootleg CD Past Masters Selection as track 14 and on the US Rarities LP. The basic song runs about 3:10 to a pause shortly after Paul's distorted vocal, too close to the microphone. The mono mix then is edited into more of the same take, with sound effects noises, and fades at 3:36. The stereo mix is edited instead to a different part of the take, fading out and then back in again, with another edit, ending finally at 4:29 after Ringo shouts "I've got blisters on my fingers!". Also on the bootleg CD The Beatles (Original Mono Mix) (Fake) at disk 2, track 6 and The Planet White Album bootleg CD at disk 2, track 3 and The Beatles Rarities US CD/LP. |
