Description
Hello Friends! The time has come for the first part in a sub-series for Mixology on a topic I've been wanting to cover for a while - fold-downs. Specifically, albums that originally had a stereo and a mono issue (usually as a promo) that was created primarily using the Stereo mix as the source. Today, we’ll be taking a look at 3 fantastic LPs from 1968 - Birthday by The Association, Take a a Picture by Margo Guryan, and Beggars Banquet by The Rolling Stones. Do these albums benefit from the fold down treatment? What makes them unique compared to their Stereo source counterparts? And above all - are these worth seeking out, or should you just stick with the pure Stereo source? It’s time to start breaking down the myths around these mixes, and evaluating the results. And I can assure you - there’s plenty more where these came from!
Happy Listening,
