Two things that are normally wrong about this issue.
Firstly, the A side is normally shown as Mystery Train, but all previous releases in the States have this coupling the other way around.
Secondly the date. This issue was first pressed with a smooth edge. This has to be prior to July 1956 to have a smooth edge. Many sources date this later in the year or even 1957.
This latter issue appears to be because there was a re-pressing with a serrated edge produced sometime after July 1956 as pictured in the second row.
The catalogue number is 3 digits BEFORE the export copy of I Want You I Need You / My Baby Left Me on HMV 7MC 45.
