INTRO:

WHAT'S A VARIATION, AND WHY DO WE CARE?
Fans often play their favorite recordings over and over, and find
they have memorized many small nuances of the performance on
record.

Sometimes, when they listen to a song on a new record, they detect
a variation in what is otherwise a very familiar recording.
There may be a voice or instrument in one version that is not in
the other, for example.

This is a variation. Just when people started noticing Beatles
variations is lost in the mists of time, but by the end of The
Beatles' recording career as a group in 1970, lists of variations
had become a perennial topic among some fans.

One's credentials as a Beatles fan need not rest on whether one can
recognize most of the variations.

Plenty of genuine fans feel this is one of the most obsessive and
boring topics imaginable, and would much rather discuss the meaning
of the lyrics, the invention of the melody, or the background of
the song in the Beatles' lives and times.
But who cares about all that, eh?
No no, that's not what I mean...

The variations let us in on a little bit about how the recordings
were made and prepared for release.

The differences tell us something about how the sound appears on
the master tapes, and about what the engineers did to make records
out of them.

At least, they tell us something if we care to ask -how- the
variations happened.

LOVE ME DO [1] basic recording- 4 Sep 1962 additional recording- 4
Sep 1962 master tape- twintrack 2d generation [no longer exists]

 CD: Past Masters 1 1988.
Ringo drumming, no tambourine (see Love Me Do [2]).
EMI practice at this time was not to keep the session master once 
mixing was complete, and in this case the mono mix master tape [a] 
was lost by end of 1962 and replaced by Love Me Do [2] on all 
further releases.
The reissues [a1] used original records as masters-- they may all 
be different transfers from vinyl but they sound alike.

Ringo on tambourine (see Love Me Do [1]).
This was the "common" version until Past Masters 1 made the other 
version also easily available.
George Martin does not recall substituting one version for another 
so it may have happened by error.

recording- 26 Nov 1962 master tape- twintrack 2d generation
[a] stereo 25 Feb 1962. edited.

 UK: Parlophone PCS3042 Please Please Me 1963, Apple PCSP717 The 
Beatles 1962-1966 1973. [a1] stereo remixed from [a] 1965, by
Capitol.

 US: Capitol ST2309 The Early 1965, Apple SKBO3403 The Beatles 
1962-1966 1973. [a2] mono from [a] 1965, by Capitol.

 US: Capitol T2309 The Early 1965.
I propose that Please Please Me [1] and [2] were made from 
different takes with the same 5 harmonica edit pieces dropped in.
Lewisohn, although failing to comment on the differences here, does 
report the mono was mixed from "unknown takes", a lack of 
documentation that paved the way for using a different take for the 
stereo, by mistake.
The stereo version [2] has the famous collision in verse 3 on "You 
know you never even try"/"Why do I never even try", followed by the 
laugh on "Come on come on", but the two have differences in the 
vocal all the way through-- for example compare the word "try" in 
the second line.
John's voice is rougher on [1].
Since the harmonica overdubs were done only once, but the takes are 
demonstrably different based on the vocals, the harmonica must be 
edit pieces cut into two different but similar takes.
(The song From Me to You, made a few months later, definitely has 
harmonica dubbed in via edit pieces, evidenced by Lewisohn's report 
and bootleg tapes.)

[a] is missing "1 2 3" in the countdown on the Vee Jay issue.
[b] has a drop in volume in verse 3 near "we danced through the 
night" which is corrected in [b3], which also has the two tracks 
brought slightly to center.
The edit in the master is believed to join the countdown onto the 
rest.

The intro, before the vocal, is shorter in [a] than the others, 
edited.
In [c1] the left instrumental channel is relatively louder, which 
isn't bad, but reverb has been added too especially in the intro 
vocal.

The intro is an edit piece that has a harmonica overdub on it in 
[a], but in [b] we hear the basic edit piece without the harmonica 
and in mono; the song cuts to stereo after it.
The other harmonica overdubs (also edit pieces) were mixed into 
both tracks so they sound centered when heard in stereo.
Two other edit pieces of vocals that were made may have also been 
used.
Claims that [b] is not mixed but just the master tape are nonsense.
It is neither the original tape, since it has the edit pieces in, 
nor a submaster from which [a] was mixed, since it has a different 
piece at the beginning. It is a distinct mix.

Additional mock stereo mixes have appeared.
The master tape of this and I'll Get You is said to have been 
stolen in 1963 and may still exist; officially it was lost.
There is at least one edit: in verse 3, "pride can hurt you too, 
apologize to her" is cut in from an edit piece or another take.
[a5] sounds better than [a], but is a sonic restoration made from 
[a].

This recording is not well described by Lewisohn, but see 
"Chronicles" for the July 18 session sheet and "Recording Sessions" 
for the July 30 session sheet.
The mono and stereo each have sound not heard in the other, 
indicating two final-generation tapes made from a common earlier 
generation. The piano intro appears to be the same on both mixes, 
but with tapping in [a].
The other differences are the raspy guitar sound on [a] and the 
more prominent piano sound throughout on [b].
Lewisohn reports that [a] was made by editing take 6 (called "edit 
(piano)" on the session sheet) and take 7 (called "complete"), both 
July 18, while [b] was made from take 7 possibly including 
unnumbered piano overdubs made Sept 30.
That the tapping intro is take 6, used only on [a], and that the 
louder piano all the way through is the Sept 30 work used only on 
[b], makes sense but does not explain all.
How is the guitar louder on [a]?
Both takes 6 and 7 are marked "track 2", i.e. second generation.
We don't know what was added for take 7.
(No use of the July 30 session's "track 3" is reported, when more 
piano intro was recorded.
Use of the Sept 30 overdubs is implied but not actually stated.)
The most difficult question is how the stereo [b] happens to have 
the vocal and handclap track mixed center, resulting in a true 
stereo mix without the hole in the center.
No other twin-track recording has anything mixed equally into both 
channels, except the harmonica overdubs in From Me to You and Thank 
You Girl.
Lewisohn says it is two separate mono mixes, meaning apparently two 
tapes, but we doubt it.
First of all, how could two tapes possibly be synchronized?-- and 
Lewisohn reports engineers synchronizing two tape decks for the 
first time for A Day in the Life in 1967.
Secondly, how could the content of the right stereo channel-- 
vocal, handclap and piano-- possibly be mixed from the twintrack 
source?
We simply need more information.
I propose as a possibility that on Sept 30, take 7 was mixed with 
live piano sound into a new unnumbered take, the existing vocal-
handclap track being mixed into both channels, to create [b] as a 
live mix; if so, it was done specifically for stereo release, which 
would appear to be the only reason to dub piano on Sept 30 anyway, 
the mono mix having been done over a month earlier.
Capitol's ST2080 has heavyhanded "mixing" on all tracks and in this 
song, rebalanced like the rest of the album, the vocal ends up off-
center.

Two takes, both 2d generation, are edited together in an 
unspecified way, and if [a] and [b] were not done the same way, it 
explains why the doubletrack vocal differs slightly.
For example, on [b], "you you you" is doubletracked at the end, but 
not on [a].

The main harmonica and piano are separate overdubs, a total 3 
generations. The harmonica solo, a "4th track" (generation) on the 
song, is edited in to hold the rest of the song to "only" 3 
generations.
The instrumental track is saturated, as can be heard in stereo.
Something else done Oct 3, probably another edit piece, is only on 
[b] according to Lewisohn's reporting, but what is it?

There are four stereo mixes.
The first one [b] has bass and drums up, like mono [a], with a nice 
bass sound lacking in the later mixes, and the handclap track is 
mixed louder than the later stereo mixes.
[c] and [d] sound alike, but the foreign releases [c] must be the 8 
Jun 1965 mix, while Lewisohn states that the 7 Nov 1966 mix was 
done for the Oldies album [d], so they are different.
[e] surprisingly has the vocal placed way over right, and nothing 
in the center, like a twintrack mix, and like the only known stereo 
mix of This Boy (see below).
An alternate theory is that [d] and [c] are the June 1965 mix, and 
[e] is the mix done in November 1966, which was not used in 1966 
for some reason.
Part of the logic is that mix [e] and the mix of This Boy both use 
left-right mixes and therefore seem to have been made at the same 
time-- guesswork.

The edit removed an instrumental break after the bridge, leaving an 
abrupt transition to the last verse.
The stereo mix [b] seems to have been lost in Canada or Australia 
in 1976, and was unavailable in 1977 for the Love Songs album, 
which instead uses a new mock stereo mix.
The CD [b1] is said to be made from a vinyl copy.
The stereo mix [b] is mixed like the stereo mix of I Want to Hold 
Your Hand [e] with vocals to one side, which also first appeared on 
the same reissue single in Australia.
EMI Australia staff say the two mixes came on the same master tape 
lent by EMI.
They may be from the same date, 1966 or much later.

[a] has a drum overdub (by someone unknown) done March 10, probably 
right onto the mono mix made 26 Feb rather than onto the 4-track 
master, since it was not used on any stereo version; the new 
drumming cuts out for the instrumental break and comes back 
abruptly after it.
[b] has the guitar track quieter (check the intro for example) than 
the common mix [c].
[d] is similar to [c].
The processing by United Artists for [a1] "stereo" is curious: the 
song is entirely mono, except that it bounces from left to right 
channels at the vocal lines "[bounce] too much for money [bounce] 
cause money can't buy me love"; it does this 3 times so it's not a 
glitch in the tape.

[a] fades out a little faster than [b].
The harmonica during the intro cuts out suddenly at one point in 
[b], but is fixed, probably by an edit, in [a]. [b1] was probably 
also created by edit although some say it is a new mix.
In the home video A Hard Day's Night, [b1] is used in the train

[a] has a single track vocal most of the way, while the others have 
double track most of the way.
Lewisohn does not report recording after Feb 27, and if so it is a 
mix difference.
"Bright are the stars that shine, dark is the sky" is always single 
tracked.
Interestingly, the start of Paul's humming after the last lyrics, 
as heard in other versions, is just barely audible in [a], as if 
mixed out but leaking from another track.
[c1] has six guitar riffs at the end instead of only four.
Is it an "untrimmed" or unedited copy of [c], or are repeats edited 
-in- for some reason?
[c1] also seems to have the guitar softer on left, but it may be a 
balancing error, not a different mix, since the centered vocal is 
also pulled a little to right, as it would be if the balance were 
off.

All versions have edits, but different edits.
The take (7) used for the main part of the song has a cowbell track 
that distinguishes it from other takes. The cowbell track is itself 
mixed more or less loudly.
Take 7 also has a double track vocal.
Both stereo mixes [b] [d] have a different, better guitar intro 
edited in, but done differently, so there are three versions of the 
intro.
In the original intro as heard in [a] [c], the cowbell starts right 
away.
[b] with the better guitar intro has no cowbell until the edit, 
which comes just before the vocal starts.
On [d], the edit comes after the first line ("I call your name, but 
you're not there"), so it has neither cowbell nor the second vocal 
track until that point.
A second, obvious stereo difference is that [b] has the vocal over 
on the right while [d] has the vocal and cowbell centered.
All mixes have an edit for the guitar solo, but the edit into the 
solo comes at two different places.
In [a][d] it comes after the vocal, evidenced by the cowbell 
through the words "I call your name", but in [b][c] it comes just 
before that last line of vocal.
The edit at the end is at the same place but there are slight 
variations in how well it was done.
There was a March 3 mono mix for the film, but the song was not 
used in the film and United Artists did not use it on their LP 
either.

The original film print of A Hard Day's Night used a different mono 
mix from June 9 that has an extended ending made by editing: "you 
know I feel all right" is heard 5 times instead of 3.
The home video release, using the common stereo mix [b], therefore 
finds the song ending slightly before the credits do.
The centering of the vocal is better in [c] than [b], where it is 
pulled a bit to the right.

This has generous reverb on the vocal, and [b] has more than [a].
At least one of the two mixes is edited, because the guitar solo 
ends differently.

Lewisohn reports the song was recorded in two "sections" that were 
edited together, but not what the sections are.
Additionally, only one mono mix is documented, but we have two, 
which I tentatively date the same day.
[a] is the "long version" that has an additional verse, verse 4, 
obviously edited in, which repeats the lyrics but not the same 
recording of verse 1.
A stereo mix made by editing [c] was used in a montage of still 
photos that opened the 1982 theatrical reissue of the film A Hard 
Day's Night, as well as the subsequent home video release.
It is a forgery of a nonexistent "complete" version, as if [a] were 
not extended by an edit, and is not like [a] because it edits in 
the same recording of verse 1.
(This is also on the bootleg LP "Casualties", 1982.)

[b] has the vocal and piano much louder (or one might say the rest 
is softer), and a cry "ow" is heard only in [b] just before the 
guitar at the end.
The vocal has a doubletrack error at "now you got a boy/girl friend 
down the street" that seems less prominent, but is still there, in 
[a], marking it as the same vocal and not different as reported 
elsewhere.

[a] has the piano mixed loud, [b] has it mixed soft; the two mixes 
were done one after the other.
[c] seems to have an edit on the line "love her more, till I walk 
out that door": [c] has a longer pause after "more" and then "till 
I" is faster to make it up, and [c] has double track vocal on "walk 
out that door" (it may be that [a] and [b] have the edit and [c] is 
original).

[a] has no echo on the vocal and has a slightly longer fade ("she's

[c] seems to have less piano than [a] but the added echo, which may 
have been done by Capitol, may just be drowning it. The mock stereo 
conversion from it [c1] is muddy.
[b], also without the echo, seems to have gone missing in Australia 
as it was not used for the Parlophone Rarities LP, but it was found

The US mono mix [b] has an enormous reverb effect that may have

The mock stereo made from it [b1] really stands out as the most

[c] starts with a second or so of whispering and tapping before the

[c1] is a "trimmed" version without the whispering; the trimming 
may be local to each release.
The open-microphone sounds at the opening (whispers, snaredrum

This recording has two vocal tracks, one of which evidently has a 
tambourine on it.
The tambourine vocal is on the stereo versions [b][c], while the 
alternate vocal is on [a] the hit single.
Some examples of vocal differences in verse 1: [b][c] has "but now 
these days", [a] has "and now these days", and on "I've changed my 
mind" [b][c] has the words evenly while [a] has them run together.
John's voice is rougher in [a] throughout.
Lewisohn does not explain the two vocals and in fact maintains they 
are different mixes, so I'm supposing the two vocals are on the 
same tape.
[c] has slightly better presence on the bass guitar and the rest is 
less bassy (similar to Ticket to Ride's new mix but less 
different).
The pop on "p" sounds, as in "appreciate" in chorus 1, is less 
noticeable in [c].
The original film print of Help! has a mono mix made April 18 using 
the tambourine vocal.
Some say this is on Capitol MAS2386 but since the rest of the album 
is combined from stereo this probably is too, as listed above.
On the Capitol albums MAS2386 and SMAS2386, and on (US) Apple 
SKBO3403, the song is preceded by a non-Beatles instrumental of the 
James Bond Theme, banded as if part of the song, but separated by a 
pause.

During the guitar break [b] a second, different lead guitar can 
just be heard as a leak or echo on the mostly silent right channel.
Some accounts refer to an "alternate" stereo mix from Japan with 
two lead guitars, but a tape (allegedly) of that shows it to be the 
usual version.

The lead guitar intro in [a] starts left and jumps to the right 
when the other instruments come in; in [c] it starts in both 
channels instead, presumably by ADT (artificial double tracking), 
and the stereo image is reversed.
All mixes have two dropouts on the guitar track around 1:50-1:55, 
more noticeable in stereo, to cover bad notes (as heard in a

[c] differs from [b] several ways.

A breath is heard before the vocal starts in [b], the drum is 
louder in the verses on [b], and a plink in the decay of the 
guitar, left, at the end of the song is not heard in [c].
The end of the piano solo is faded away slightly better on [c].

The brass sound on [a] was augmented on June 20 by lifting brass 
sound from the master and overdubbing onto the mix done on June 17.
This overdub, being on the mix tape, was not done on [b].
[a] and [b] have different vocal overdubs at the fade, the line 
"every single day of my life".

The "backwards guitar" effect is heard in different places in the 
four mixes, and a lead guitar track is mixed differently throughout 
the solo and at the end.
An alleged fifth mix, the "French EP", is just [d].
verse 1: no backwards guitar (BG) on any mix verse 2: [a] no BG




[b] BG on "everywhere at such a speed" and "find there's no need"




[c] BG on "running everywhere at such a speed" and "till they find






there's no need"




[d] BG on "where at such a speed" and "there's no need" solo:

[a] guitar continues into words "please don't" at end of solo

and continues into "please" verse 3: [a] BG on "time" and "ceiling"

This is two recordings mixed separately and edited together at 
exactly 1:00, going from "Let me take you down,'cause I'm" from 
take 7 of 29 Nov, into "going to, Strawberry Fields" from take 26 
of 15 Dec.
The mix of take 7 itself involves an edit, at the silence at 0:55, 
since take 7 has no refrain between verses 1 and 2; "Let me take 
you down, 'cause I'm" is from a later part of take 7.
Take 7 is just a 2d generation tape.
The second part, take 26, is a complicated 3d generation tape.
A drum and percussion track from take 15 and a similar edit piece 
for the end, take 24, were copied and edited to 2d generation take 
25, on which more was overdubbed, and mixed down to take 26 for 
more overdubs.
The "cranberry sauce" must be from take 24.
This whole second part was recorded at a faster tempo and slowed 
down during preparation of the combined recording.
There may be a slight slide in tape speed right around the join, 
too.
[c] has better percussion sound than [b] and more stereo 
separaration.
[b] has a nice effect at the edit, panning the cello and trumpet 
track from left to right, where it stays, distracting the listener 
from the edit itself; in [c] this track just starts suddenly on the 
right.
[c] pans the swordmandel track from left to right at the start of 
both verse 2 and 3; it's centered in [b].
John counts down the rest before the start of verse 2 and 3, 
properly mixed out in [b] but heard in [c].
The fadeout-fadein near the end goes to a moment of silence in [c], 
but comes back immediately in the others.
[c] has a slightly longer final fade so we hear a second "cranberry 
sauce" in the drum track, left.

The orchestra was recorded on 4 tracks of a separate 4-track tape 
(take 7) and synchronized during mixing with the Beatles tape (take 
6).
The edit is for the final note, recorded separately.
The crossfade joins the beginning to the preceding Sgt Pepper 
(reprise).
In [b1] [b2] and on a 1978 single, the crossfade is cut off, so the 
song begins later than its real beginning.
The original mix without crossfade, including a countdown not heard 
under the crossfade, appeared in a 1967 promo film. The countdown 
is likewise heard in [c], which was made for the documentary film 
"Imagine: John Lennon".

The editing of [a] touched up the sound effects at the end, mainly 
so the hen cluck at the very end would run straight into the 
opening of Sgt Pepper (reprise).
An Apr 6 mono mix was replaced by an Apr 19 mix [a] containing this 
edit.
"Good morning good morning good" repeats 9 times in [a], as against 
10 times in [b], probably showing this edit.
Lewisohn does not say when or if the Apr 6 stereo mix was redone, 
and perhaps it was not. Ironically the blend is better in stereo.
The lead guitar is mixed down after the break on [a] but on [b] it 
continues loud over "People running round...".

[a] has quite a bit of "phasing" not in [b]-- ADT with "flanging", 
deliberate tape speed manipulation for a classic pyschedelic 
effect.
Note especially the third "Lucy" line in the first refrain, but it 
continues, notable again in second refrain and in instrumental part 
leading to third refrain.
[b] sounds more natural but [a] is evidently what was desired.
For some reason a new mono mix was made 1 November 1967 for the 
original Yellow Submarine film print; this was not available for 
review.

For both mono and stereo, "part 1" (apparently the first, vocal 
section) was mixed separately from "parts 2 and 3" (the 
instrumental and the final vocal part?), and those mixes were 
edited together.
The laughter at the end was also edited on, but [a] and [b] have a 
different laugh.

The crossfade joins this to the preceding song, Sgt Pepper, but the
songs do not overlap; rather, crowd noise runs from one through to 
the other.
This song starts right before the announcement "Billy Shears!", 
which is more readily apparent as a change in ambience on [a], 
since louder crowd noise covers the join better in [b].

The crossfade joins this to the following song, A Day in the Life.
[a] starts with unknown spoken words not in [b], then both have a 
countdown with someone saying "aah" behind it, then [a] has more 
drum beats to start. During the sequence just described, crowd 
noise on [a] starts louder, dies down, then up to a cheer, while 
crowd noise on [b] stays steady at medium volume-- the crowd noise 
seems to have been added during mixing.
Right before the vocal is a "woo", louder on [a].
Toward the end on [a] Paul is heard shouting unintelligible phrases 
("we're the greatest"? among other things) starting near the last 
"Sgt Pepper's lonely", while on [b] John is heard nearer the end 
saying something like "hold my guitar for me".

This 2 seconds of talk was placed in the inner groove of the 
Parlophone release.
It was dropped for pressings some time after 1978.
It is not exactly the same for all pressings due to the runout 
groove meeting the inner groove at different points in different LP

 CD: Magical Mystery Tour 1987, The Beatles 1967-1970 1993.
The original Magical Mystery Tour film soundtrack uses a May 4 mono 
mix with different vocals at the beginning: a faster "Roll up, roll 
up, roll up" with "hurry! hurry!" over it, as well as spoken lines 
by John during the break ("When a man buys a ticket for a magical 
mystery tour. . . the incredible Magical Mystery Tour", the last 
part given heavy reverb).
The stereo mix made in 1988 for home video has the same variant 
vocals (though the "hurry" lines are louder).
These vocals unique to the film may, like the sound effects, be on 
the film soundtrack proper and not on the 4-track master of the 
song.
Lewisohn says a new vocal line (unspecified) was added Nov 7 to 
existing mixes.
Possibly this is the "Roll up..." line heard on record.
No stereo mix is booked prior to Nov 7 either so I presume it was 
made then.
Near the end of the instrumental break, the brass part under 
"aaaah" is longer in stereo [c] than [b].

original film prints of Yellow Submarine.
The portion used includes a verse not included in [a], and a 
bootleg of a radio broadcast shows the mono mix to be 8:25.
In the stereo mix, most of the sound that is not placed center is 
placed using ADT to both left and right, so it sounds very dense.

The orchestra and choral singers were recorded on two generations 
of a separate tape, take 25, with edit pieces, synchronized during 
mixing to the Beatles on take 17, making a difficult mix that took 
many tries to get. Lewisohn does not describe this as two tapes at 
mix stage.
[a] is reportedly mono mix 23, an edit of mono mix 10 (to the end 
of the second "Goo Goo Gajoob") and mono mix 22.
Mix 22 is the one with the radio sound mixed in, a BBC broadcast of 
King Lear.
[a] has three edits, all in the first part of the song, mono mix 
10: 2 of the 6 beats in the into are cut off; a cymbal crash at the 
first "Goo Goo Gajoob" is mixed out; a few beats after "I'm crying" 
are edited out.
[a1] is similar to [a] and has the first two of the three edits.
The beats after "I'm crying" remain in place.
This could be mix 22 in its entirety, which Lewisohn says is a 
complete mix of the whole song, or it could be a copy of an early 
state of mix 23.
[a2] appears to be an attempt to copy the edit in [a], but the edit 
is slightly different.
[b] is a stereo mix from the synchronized tapes up to the same spot 
as the edit in [a].
After that [b] is mock stereo made from mono mix 22, in order to 
get the radio sound, which was added sound-on-sound to the mono 
mix.
[b] has all 6 beats of the intro, and has the cymbal crash at the 
end of verse 1, but the third edit, the beats after "I'm crying", 
was done.
The mock stereo sound starts panning left and right near the end of 
the fadeout.
[b1] is [b] with the first 2 beats of the intro cut off, as in [a].
This might have been done by Capitol.
[b2] is a forgery made by Capitol.
The beats after "I'm crying" have been edited in, in mock stereo, 
to create a bogus complete stereo version.
The stereo home video release of Magical Mystery Tour probably is 
[b] with the first 2 beats cut off, therefore like [b1].
It may be a new mix but given the many tries it took in 1967 I 
doubt it was done again in 1988.

Lewisohn notes editing but does not explain.
[a] includes a backing vocal track mixed center, part of it 
backwards, that is hardly used at all in [b].
The mixes have a very heavy use of "phasing", that is, ADT with 
"flanging", deliberate tape speed variation, and in this case 
relatively long delay in repeating the sound.
The 1988 stereo mix for home video Magical Mystery Tour, like [a], 
makes very little use of the backing vocal track, so sounds quite 
different from [b].

The 2d generation tape is an edit of two mixdowns, the edit causing 
an abrupt transition at the end of the guitar solos.
In stereo, traces of other vocal and guitar parts can be heard 
throughout the song in the left channel, including something 
shouted over parts of the vocal and what sounds like another 
different guitar solo.
After the edit, the trace lead vocal suggests we are hearing the 
first part of the song from the other take.
The edit in the mixes added the countdown intro, which is louder in 
[a].
[a] is 11 seconds longer, long fade.

The 2d generation master is an edit of (copies of) two takes with

ADT was added to the "I need a fix" section before mixing so both

"Queen says no to pot-smoking FBI members" was recorded at some

It was omitted on the US single.
This dialog was on the filmmaker's mono sound tape.

[a] and [b] are similar.
After a pause, after a high "woo", it continues into a coda with 
half-spoken words into a fadeout.
[a] fades slightly longer, but [b] is heard a second longer than 
usual on Capitol's 20 Greatest Hits LP.
The coda seems to be edited from another take, and if so the main 
song may be Jan 27 and the coda Jan 28; Lewisohn says the version 
with the coda is from Jan 28.
Evidence of the edit is that the March 1969 stereo mix (as heard on 
bootleg) ends at the "woo", over off-mike talking, and continues a 
few seconds into silence and a guitar noise.
The unreleased "Get Back" albums compiled later use the mix [b] 
from the single.
[c] is edited after the "woo" into speech recorded 30 Jan 1969, at 
the end of the last "rooftop" performance of Get Back: "(cheers) 
Thanks Mo. . . we hope we passed the audition".
The speech at the beginning may or may not belong there.
The March 1969 mix has the "Rosetta" before the song but not the 
"Sweet Loretta Fart" verse, but for obvious reasons the latter may 
have been cut out of the March 1969 mix if it was spoken there.

There appears to be a second John vocal in verse 3 (trace of 
another vocal) and more clearly at the very end in the fade where 
it seems to be John overlapping on "Can you dig it"/"Don't let 
me"/"Yeah"/"Don't let me down". Or is it Paul?
If it's an overdub, it was perhaps added at the mix session, either 
live or dropped in from another tape.
The unreleased albums use a different take.
