Do any copies of this play without distortion? I have had so many on US Smash & they all distort. Have I just been unlucky? Is there a vinyl pressing from somewhere which plays clear? The one on NZ Philips sounds like it was recorded off the US 45 as it played in another room.

The Aussie Phillips 45 plays fine Kris !

Trust me to be the odd man out, I've got this and I only play the "I washed my hands in muddy water" side, never even played "Mohair Sam" I don't think

didn't Jerry Lee Lewis do one or both of those tracks?

I can't choose which side I prefer, strong 2 sider.

Will keep an eye out for a UK, Aus or US promo (apparantly they are vinyl).

Thanks guys.
