Westbound #9/ Why Don't You Stay

This single was released with two track lengths: 2:53, and 3:29. I don't know which came first, but I suspect the shorter version led the way. (To confuse further, some pressings with the 3:29 version used labels saying 2:53... :-) This copy has the longer version. By the way, for the Motown-related context for this song, as well as for good insight into the way Holland-Dozier-Holland extended their reach with tracks like this, check out this URL. Note: This beautiful copy comes in a vintage Buddah Records factory sleeve. It has flawless labels except for a small drillhole, and the audio sounds pristine. The vinyl shows very light storage wear. (This scan is a representative image from our archives.)
