Rather than play the obvious Take Good Care of My Baby to illustrate Bobby Vee singing Goffin/King they played How Many Tears, rarely heard but great fun. Enter code here Please note: although no board code and smiley buttons are shown, they are still usable.

The only thing is, and I'm sure Phil Swern does his best, some tracks are stereo rather than the original mono. Enter code here Please note: although no board code and smiley buttons are shown, they are still usable.

He annoyed me this week with a re-recording of It's Over; Orbison always sings it perfectly, but this just wasn't the original! Enter code here Please note: although no board code and smiley buttons are shown, they are still usable.

I really enjoy hearing the stereo versions of original recordings as for me stereo adds another dimension to these familiar hits, particularly when listened to on headphones.

I recently purchased the new collection of original Herman's Hermits hits on the Bear Family label which are newly mixed to stereo, having previously only been available in mono. They sound fantastic!

And today Carole King "It Might As Well Rain Until September": that double-tracking ... out of tune, out of sync but so beautiful. Then Joni Mitchell "Night In The City", hot guitar player, great lyricist and, after some Barbra Streisand schmaltz, a good Swinging Blue Jeans cover "You're No Good".
