A couple of notes for you -
THANK YOU so much for your work, firstly!
I think the magic was in the Stereo SMiLE (specifically the "fixed 2.0" and "Look" mixes), those offered something so unique to the fans here. I would love it if you returned to doing stereo mixes if there is a 4.0
Contrary to some other posters above, I adore what you did with Holidays!!!! Especially the way you modulated the "Worms" vocals into it. Fantastic job on that one.

I didn't read any responses to the original post, but I am also 20 years old, and that's just not correct. Let's be honest, modern day stereo is almost mono. Seperation is really, really narrow. Wide stereo of the 60s is a thing of the past. SMiLE in mono is actually closer to the format most young people are listening to.
In addition to that fact, I think most people hearing this material for the first time are drawn to the MUSIC, not the format the music is in.
I myself like Mono and Stereo for a variety of different reasons. There are bad mono mixes and there are bad stereo mixes. The SMiLE Sessions (Disc 1) sounds really clean, and is in fantastic quality. The fact that we can all own this material in such a nifty package is a joy. Just enjoy it.
