True, mono would get rid of that very strange decision to put Jimi’s voice in only one channel on the first cut on each side.

My copy’s en route, hope it’s good like @dougthebiker’s. I like getting the stereo versions, if it’s too weird I can go with mono switches on my pre pre or preamp. |
My copy of Are You Experienced arrived last week, but I have not yet played it. I always had the stereo version so I am accustom to the one-channel of Jimis' voice on those cuts. Still dealing with and nursing our dog; he's not doing well and struggling, but I just can't make the call yet as his mind is still so good. Soon, though! I haven't played my hi-fi for some time now. Maybe later today. As always, I get ideas of what to play directly from this thread. You guys are the best!

I hear you on the weird channel on Jimi's vocals. I have experienced this on many LPs of the 60s and 70s. I'm able to kind of tune it out when the music being played is superior. Great day off of spinning vinyl: Pat Travers - Black Pearl Reece Wynans and Friends - Sweet Release (great music and great sound) Mazzy Star - So Tonight That I Might See The Montgomery Brothers - Groove Yard The Dave Bailey Sextet - One Foot in the Gutter
