I just listened to "Still" on Qobuz on the Best Of and it's in stereo. Very narrow stereo on Grand Ole Opry 75 Years Volume Two.

Can someone point us to the mono Best Of?]]> Tue, 14 Oct 2025 13:02:03 +0000 https://top40musiconcd.com/forum/forum_posts.asp?TID=10090&PID=67378&title=still-bill-anderson#67378 <![CDATA[Still - Bill Anderson : Kevincafe1966:Not to tell you...]]> https://top40musiconcd.com/forum/forum_posts.asp?TID=10090&PID=67377&title=still-bill-anderson#67377 Author: CountryPD

Kevincafe1966:

Not to tell you what you already might know, but I've gotten some really great deals on used CD's from Discogs.
A copy of the Bill Anderson Curb "Best Of" CD is available there now for under $10.

eBay also has several under $10.

Apparently. It makes me wonder if I was listening to the wrong "Best Of" when I made that post.

Reviving this thread to let everyone know that the Curb release of "Best Of Bill Anderson" with the mono tracks is still available on Qobuz. The mono tracks are listed as "Album Only", meaning you need to buy the whole album to get them.

To me, this is worth the $12.95 I spent because new copies of the CD run anywhere from $20 to $30. All of the tracks came as what I believe are lossless FLAC files. 

The mastering on the mono tracks is quite good, in my opinion. The stereo tracks? I didn't bother to download them, as I have no interest in listening to them.

That's very surprising.

Curb has always been a rather low-budget operation for
compilations. Hard to believe that they'd take the time to replace
the MONO versions. Guess that somebody in their digital
catalog division has a clue!

The two volumes of Bill's Greatest Hits released on CD by
Varese Sarabande are great sources for many of Bill's original
Decca & MCA hits in STEREO. So far those two comps have
not been issued as downloads.

There are three MCA Nashville hit comps of Bill's Decca/MCA
singles available as downloads. However many of the tracks are
duplicated between them while many of Bill's hits were
overlooked.

Recently MCA Nashville has digitally released several of Bill's
original 1962-1977 Decca & MCA albums. Online samples
sound pretty good so they must have found master tapes
somewhere since that devastating 2008 Universal vault fire. The
Bill Anderson 1956-1966 4-CD Bear Family Boxset issued in
2011 sourced most of the audio from vinyl.]]> Wed, 17 Jul 2024 06:18:09 +0000 https://top40musiconcd.com/forum/forum_posts.asp?TID=10090&PID=64965&title=still-bill-anderson#64965 <![CDATA[Still - Bill Anderson : CountryPD wrote:My copy of...]]> https://top40musiconcd.com/forum/forum_posts.asp?TID=10090&PID=64957&title=still-bill-anderson#64957 Author: Brian W.

Thanks! Yeah, all three of those have been replaced with
stereo mixes on the download version of the album.

Would someone mind checking this track from this CD in the database:

Bill Anderson - 1963 Still
(M) (2:46) Curb 77436 Best Of

The database says it's mono, but this Curb title is available as a download, and it's stereo there. I'm wondering if this is a mistake in the database or if they've replaced the track on the digital version. Thanks!]]> Mon, 15 Jul 2024 00:58:56 +0000 https://top40musiconcd.com/forum/forum_posts.asp?TID=10090&PID=64950&title=still-bill-anderson#64950
