 No NEMS or Maclen Music. Scranton "I AM" press  MAS-2-2653-G2 #2/MAS-1-2653-F1
it's transformative to hear this again in mono as it was intended. The Beatles were present for the mono mix not the stereo. John said it was the only way to hear it. i agree. much punchier and rocks harder.
some of the differences in the mono mix: 

HERE IS A LIST OF SONIC DIFFERENCES WHEN LISTENING TO THE MONO VERSION (VS STEREO)

1. THE FUNKY BACKWARDS GUITAR PART AT THE END OF THE OPENING SONG JUST BEFORE “BILLY SHEARS”

2. THE FLANGING/ADT EFFECT ON RINGO’S VOICE DURING SOME CHORUS OF “WITH A LITTLE HELP FROM MY FRIENDS”

3. THE TRIPPED OUT FLANGING VOCALS FROM THE SECOND VERSE OUT ON “LUCY IN THE SKY WITH DIAMONDS”.

4. THE SLIGHTLY LONGER END OF “FLIXING A HOLE” WHERE McCARTNEY IS WAILING UP HIGH.

5. THE CHANGE IN TONE IN “SHE’S LEAVING HOME” IN THE MONO VERSION-DUE TO BEING SPED UP, NOT SO DREARY AND LONG AS IN THE STEREO VERSION.

6. THE TIMING ON THE EFFECT OF “MR. KITE”

7. THE EXTENDED LOUDER LAUGHTER ON “WITHIN YOU WITHOUT YOU”

8. THE LOUDER BACKING “OO-OO’S” ON “WHEN I’AM 64”

9. THE “BLEED EDIT” FOUND AT THE BEGINNING OF THE “SGT. PEPPER REPRISE” YOU CAN HEAR THE MACHINE FLUTTER AS IT COMES OF PAUSE.

10. THE LOW VOLUME MUMBO JUMBO DURING THE EXTENDED BASS DRUM RAPS AT THE BEGINNING OF THE “SGT. PEPPER REPRISE”

11. THE TIMING OF THE AUDIENCES IS DIFFERENT ON THE “REPRISE” SECTION.

12. PAUL McCARTNEY AD LIBBING AT THE END. PAUL SOUND LIKE HE IS SAYING “THANK YOU VERY MUCH GOOD NIGHT NOW…” OR “BYE, BYE NOW”
