I've noticed that "Foot Tapper" on the film of "Summer Holiday" sounds different from the studio versions.(Single or LP)
According to Malcolm Campbell's book " A pocket guide to Shadow Music" there was two recordings of "Foot Tapper" 10/12/62 (album version) and 8/1/63 (single version).

You can say the same about several Cliff Richard and/or Shadows recordings from films up to and including "Wonderful Life". The version of
Foot Tapper heard on the film soundtrack (supposedly played on a record-player on the bus as it moves through the night after the stop in Paris) is a third version, never commercially released, not even on the enhanced and expanded Summer Holiday CD of a few years ago.
Before "Finders Keepers", every performance in a film was a different version from those available on any record.
