    While I believe there’s no difference between the single and album mix, this single version of Pinball Wizard runs 7 seconds faster than the album cut does.

      I really love that it's listed as "Vocal With Orchestra"

          I have an MCA Records reissue of this - MCA-60174 - with the black labels, dated "©1973". It says "Previously Released on Decca 32465 on 3-17-69" on the right-hand side of the label.
