Hold Me Tight (original stereo studio mix)

~ Recording by The Beatles

Annotation

The following release uses a fold down remaster of this mix for mono:
US: Capitol T 2047 Meet the Beatles 1964.

In stereo, "you you you" at the end has a harmony vocal missing in mono, so there was at least one difference in the editing.
