    now the let it be very late box set is out this very sad and pointless version and release can sit on the shelf
    this is McCartney's stressed out demanded MONO mix that he roped Glyn John's in to creating watched over and supervised by McCartney at Olympic studios. In the book with the box set (white cover) the term "improved" is used, not that McCartney was so hyped up on something and heard the Glyn Johns stereo acitate that had been sent to the BBC to play on MONO AM-MW radio where the signal waved/waffed/phased in and out over interference/static! UK EMI were ready to go with and wetre set up with the stereo mixes of both tracks that Glyn Johns had had cut at Abbey Road (originally the stereo mixing session of these tracks had been paid for byCapitol Inc....
    The Glyn Johns stereo mixes came out in 4 territories USA, Canada, and Japan, everywhere else waited for their tapes from UK-EMI and not Capitol Inc.
    The superior Glyn Johns stereo mixes are on Let It Be album with Phil Spector's over production and fake added ending to pretend it was live from the roof of Apple, as there were mastered on the Alan Klein supervised Hey Jude USA compilation album, The Double blue Alan Klein supervised compilation, 1967-1970, Rock'n'Roll Music compilation, 20 Greatist Hits compilation Pastmasters compilation and #1's (phew, none have the mono panic created by McCartney that Easter Sunday) and now Glyn Johns' stereo mix is on the included Get Back album in the box set!!!!

      I have a first press UK mono of this 45 rpm with the endings of 1u on both sides. I'm trying to find out information on the stampers they used. Both sides of mine start with the number 1 and have the KT tax stamp on both sides in the runout. Any information would be appreciated.
