Title: Mixing/edit differences of songs between the mono + stereo versions? Post by: CenturyDeprived on November 19, 2012, 02:30:30 PM Apologies if this has been covered before, but is there anywhere where a list is compiled of songs with notable mixing/edit differences between the mono + stereo versions on the new remasters?
I happened to notice the very ending coda of "Don't Back Down" was noticeably different between mono/stereo, wondering if there are any other songs like this (of course, this would certainly include tracks which are missing parts on stereo versions due to lack of discrete tracks), but I'm more interested in differences that appear to be due to presumably intentional choices back in the '60s (like "Don't Back Down" for example)... It seems "In the Back of My Mind" would also qualify as a contender, though this may be due to new intentional "improvements" made by Mark Linnett to the stereo version, which admittedly does make for an alternative interesting/revealing listening experience.

Post by: EgoHanger1966 on November 19, 2012, 02:38:14 PM Many of the Chuck Britz-era mono mixes have longer or slightly different fades than the stereo counterparts. Not much earth shattering, but always cool to hear a few extra seconds that can't be found on another mix!

Brian Mixed the Mono Mixes didn't he? Title: Re: Mixing/edit differences of songs between the mono + stereo versions?

I think so, but EgoHanger didn't claim Britz did the mono mixes - he referred to the "Chuck Britz era" during which Britz did the stereo mixes. An especially badly done Chuck Britz era stereo fade is "Fun, Fun, Fun". Title: Re: Mixing/edit differences of songs between the mono + stereo versions? Post by: CenturyDeprived on November 21, 2012, 11:30:17 AM Just noticed a very different ending between versions of The Surfer Moon: mono version adds another repetition of Brian's coda vocal before the ascending change. This may be common knowledge to some, but differences of this magnitude are pretty cool to pick out and compile in a list...

I love Brian's Falsetto repeats!
