'Walkin' played by the Shadows - edited out?

DVD copies of this film are 109 mins as opposed the stated 113 mins here.

I re-call seeing this film in the theatres around release time and remember a sequence of the Shadows walking across desert playing the number "Walkin'" which is the third track on the vinyl LP album.
This track is missing from today's DVDs of the film.

Anyone know what happened to this sequence? Or has my memory been totally "shot" with older age!!

It is playing in the background when Johnnie asks Jenny out to eat in costume

Thanks for that,

I have a distant memory of the Shadows walking across the sand dune miming with their guitars to the tune of "Walkin' - and I cannot think where I have got that idea from.

Cheers

I for the life of me can't seem to figure out where "Theme For Young Lovers" plays however, I must be missing it.

Are you in the UK because if you are the difference in time is most likely because it is running at 25 fps instead of 24. Calculating it 113 mins would come out at 108.48 mins.

Ahh - most likely the reason.

Many thanks
