There needs to be a *legal* platform for sharing original vinyl rips. If Eric Burdon's spoken intro was indeed purged from subsequent re-issues of the album, I would like to hear a rip of the original vinyl album that included it, and not an edited simulation thereof.
The only time I think I've heard the full version is on FM radio.Top 40 AM radio is not likely going to ever play full version because of their radio format & the times they play with for content (Hey Jude excused)

Those Bagpipes give me chills to this day!
I was nine years old with a transistor radio to my ear all the time, however I couldn't listen to this song while my brother was
in Vietnam...

Heard this song on a very warm and green land following high school graduation on may 27, 1969.
Finally the full single
Mix in stereo
The full length version seldom gets played on radio stations.

Seems like someone else's life now 54 yrs. Later.

Yes I had the 45 in the late 60s..pt 1 on A side & part 2 on other side.
In Vietnam, it wasn't worth it
Neither was Iraq or Afghanistan
