 Rocket66 - the 4.36 album version is the full-length version of the 3.40 single version, that A&M shortened by chopping off the extended intro.

I'd thought the longer intro was added for this album but the truth is the one most of us are best-familiar with was edited in the first place. So: same take, just shorter or full-length.

 @Ade agreed; but is that extra (30 sec.-ish) beginning from 'Close To You'; and is it on all versions?

 Despite listing the same time (3.04) as the original, We've Only Just Begun has a brief opening segment added.

 With 27 weeks at No 1 in the UK and 125 weeks in the charts, and 300 000 copies sold, there were undoubtedly many different pressing runs and label prints for this one. Chart entry was 8 days after the release date shown here.

 Yet another label layout; Title above spindle hole, rest as philwill, but songs in uppercase, Made in England to left of spindle; and A4 publisher change to SOLO COPYWRIGHT BUREAU.
