need the class's help here....my commercial 45 for the
nancy wilson song "(you don't know) how glad i am" issued
as capitol 5198 states the run time on the label as 2:37
but only runs 2:34.....if you fade for 0:07 from 2:27 to
2:34 on the best of cd, you'll effectively re-create the
vinyl 45 version.....BUT....the d/b notes that there is an
"lp mix" and a "45 mix".....aside form the mono/stereo subtleties, they sound the same to me.....can anyone shed
some light on what the differences might be?

I think the difference is reverb on the vocal. The mono LP and 45 have a fairly wet vocal. The stereo mix I have (from which CD I don't recall) has a much drier vocal. I assume I have the stereo LP mix. Pat lists two CDs with a stereo 45 mix. I've never heard it but I'll bet the stereo 45 mix has reverb that the stereo LP mix doesn't have. I can't help wondering if someone during the CD era added reverb to the dry stereo mix to approximate the reverb on the mono mix. But unless I'm mistaken, on the mono mix the vocal is wetter than the backing track. Of course I could be "all wet" about that. :)
