LP Version.

Gershon Kingsley's "Popcorn" is perhaps the most well-known piece of electronic music.[1] Composed in 1969, this version has been covered various times, but base of most covers is Kingsley's own 7" Single version, released in '72.[2]

Unlike the LP version, the 7" version has the iconic start used in most covers. It is also slightly slower and has a lower pitch.

Nothing else is known about this version. Only an excerpt has been uploaded[3], but hopefully we'll get more information on the subject.

7/6/2016 Update: The 7" single is available to purchase on eBay (from Germany): http://www.ebay.com/itm/Gershon-Kingsley-and-the-Moog-Pop-corn-Popcorn-7-Single-/391358435786?hash=item5b1ec7d1ca:g:5WYAAOSwJkJWjejP
