    Note: the A-5 and B-2 pressings have shorter (presumably single) versions of Annie, and Stool Pigeon respectively. There are hybrid pressings where one side will have the original version of the song and the shorter version of the other side. This can work for either side of the record. A-1 and B-1 have the longer versions; I cannot vouch for any other cuts.
