Original stereo mix by sound engineer Norman Smith. A later remix from November 1966 by Peter Brown was made specifically for the UK compilation LP A Collection of Beatles Oldies but then rejected when it was discovered that the original intent was to remaster the Beatles cover of Bad Boy (previously unissued on a UK LP) and not This Boy. An official version of this earlier mix did appear later on a 1976 Capitol of Canada 45 re-issue as the b-side to All My Loving. In this version we hear an untrimmed account with Norman Smith announcing in the slate. Estimated release date known to be in July 1999. |
