The first line up is correct. The second is the American LP track listing. I have both versions, and the Brit version always had four more tracks than the American - but deleted the rockin instrumental version.

...but deleted the rockin instrumental version.
That instrumental was recorded in mono, for a 45 rpm single presumably.

MONO is better than stereo
If you have one ear, maybe....

Bumping this thread.
Given that the Bond albums were the same for the US and UK, does anyone know why the US and UK track lineups of Goldfinger were so different? I understand that the US label wanted an instrumental version of the theme - which ironically is all over the score anyway - but why did they delete FOUR tracks to make room for ONE? They could have easily just replaced one of the tracks with the instrumental theme. Any ideas?
Actually the US and UK Bond LP's weren't always the same.
The UK LP of You Only Live Twice had a different version of the final track to the US LP.
And the US mono LP of Thunderball had a different version of Mr Kiss Kiss Bang Bang to the UK mono LP.
But these were, I think, the only differences.
Why? I don't know myself.

My LP encounter with Goldfinger was the 10th Anniversary James Bond Album Superpak, a double album featuring suites from Dr. No through Diamonds Are Forever. My favorite was side 2, which was absolutely killer in 1973, with the suite from Goldfinger and two tracks from Thunderball.
1. Goldfinger - Main Title/Into Miami (03:14)
2. Auric's Factory (02:28)
3. Bond Back In Action Again (02:29)
4. Goldfinger - Instrumental (02:08)
5. The Death Of Goldfinger - End Title (02:34)
6. Mr. Kiss Kiss Bang Bang (03:13)
7. 007 (02:30)
I loved this double album so much I never bought the full soundtracks on lp, though of course did later on cassette and CD. Though I would have sworn "Dawn Raid" was on here (clearly not), it was a great summary of the score.

bRITISH ALBUMS OF 007, bEATLES ETC HAVE MORE TRACKS FOR A SIMPLE BUT OBVIOUS REASON: PUBLISHING ROYALTIES.
FOR EXAMPLE:
Rubber Soul" by The Beatles
if Capitol kept the 14 tracks of the UK EMI lp, they would have to pay out royalties to the composers of the 2 extra tracks.
SO, let us say the lp sells for 4 dollars and sells one million copies. Four million dollars gross.
If the 2 extra tracks earn 5 cents royalty per album -10 cents total- that is 100,000 dollars less for the record company!!!!

I think I would give much to hear the love music from "Goldfinger" from the original multi-channel masters. Will not happen...
