Only released in the terrible sounding "electronically reprocessed stereo".
Wikipedia is to be taken with a large chunk of salt...

But still. This turned out to be a discussion about mono vs stereo, but that is another question. What I find disturbing is the fact that we have been mislead by the false labelling and the fact that the record companies have gotten away with it without any (?) complaints

Have you noticed that even if you play a mono recording the sound will still come from both speakers. However in both the mono case and the false stereo case the sound in both speakers is the same.

Still sounds good. The Stereo is fine too though.
Technical considerations and production values asside...
...there's maybe an argument that the nature of the Stones' sound is best suited to being presented as one big ball of noise ;^)

The only song that benefits from mono treatment is LIB, imo. Mainly, because it's partially mixed as the old 60s numbers: with the drums in one speaker and most of the music in the other speaker. It stands out on the stereo version of the album because of this, though, so it's all about aquired taste.

The biggest disappointment for me was the mono version of We love you (and also Paint it, black on THE LONDON YEARS where it is stated taht everything was mastered from the original master tapes. It is downright depressing to listen to the former song which is so much based on stereo effects.
In that respect, the Stones have never done much good in their publishing policy.
