Eight years and seven days later...

Just reporting that the 45 is mono (confirmed with a needledrop that I did), and the LP version is stereo (confirmed with someone else's needledrop).

The vocal parts are panned a little weird, but the opening music and some of the music samples are clearly in stereo, especially the rerecorded "Please Mr. Please" and "Rhinestone Cowboy". It may be that those are the only parts in stereo. I didn't pick this one apart in too much detail. The Rhino CD with the LP version is mixed to hard mono.]]> Fri, 09 Dec 2016 18:00:32 +0000 https://top40musiconcd.com/forum/forum_posts.asp?TID=1062&PID=46569&title=mr-jaws-dickie-goodman#46569 https://top40musiconcd.com/forum/forum_posts.asp?TID=1062&PID=20011&title=mr-jaws-dickie-goodman#20011 Author: Fetta

Thanks EdisonLite.

Are they the original 45 versions?]]> Tue, 02 Dec 2008 10:38:44 +0000 https://top40musiconcd.com/forum/forum_posts.asp?TID=1062&PID=20011&title=mr-jaws-dickie-goodman#20011 https://top40musiconcd.com/forum/forum_posts.asp?TID=1062&PID=20010&title=mr-jaws-dickie-goodman#20010 Author: EdisonLite

Their source was scratchy, worn-out records, cleaned up a bit.]]> Tue, 02 Dec 2008 10:12:04 +0000 https://top40musiconcd.com/forum/forum_posts.asp?TID=1062&PID=20010&title=mr-jaws-dickie-goodman#20010 https://top40musiconcd.com/forum/forum_posts.asp?TID=1062&PID=20009&title=mr-jaws-dickie-goodman#20009 Author: Fetta

I have the two Dickie Goodman CDs on Hot Productions (I can't remember as they are tucked away in a closet but I think they are called "Greatest Fables")

Do these Hot Production CDs contain the original versions and what are their source? They always sounded pretty good to me but my ears would never dare challenge anyones from this message board.

In my humble opinion, "The Flying Saucer" sounds better on the Collectables 45 (which has the original drop-ins) than on the Varese CD.]]> Tue, 25 Nov 2008 10:29:05 +0000 https://top40musiconcd.com/forum/forum_posts.asp?TID=1062&PID=19938&title=mr-jaws-dickie-goodman#19938 https://top40musiconcd.com/forum/forum_posts.asp?TID=1062&PID=19935&title=mr-jaws-dickie-goodman#19935 Author: Brian W.

Well, they did. That's what the common version out there is... Goodman's vocal parts from the vinyl source and the "drop-ins" newly mastered from tape sources. But it doesn't quite sound the same, and Inglot got one or two drop-ins wrong.]]> Mon, 24 Nov 2008 19:49:15 +0000 https://top40musiconcd.com/forum/forum_posts.asp?TID=1062&PID=19935&title=mr-jaws-dickie-goodman#19935 https://top40musiconcd.com/forum/forum_posts.asp?TID=1062&PID=19934&title=mr-jaws-dickie-goodman#19934 Author: eriejwg

Yes, that's true. However, "Flying Saucer" and "Mr. Jaws" appear to be FULLY from vinyl on all CD issues. Even the "radio announcer" parts have telltale vinyl crackles in them.

It was my understanding that Varese had used the only tape source they were able to find, which was off of a Liberty LP compilation, i believe...so if that one also happened to start life as a disc dub, then I doubt that the original tape would ever turn up. Not to mention that the original tape would've been full of splices and scotch tape, as was Dickie's way of putting a break-in record together, and likely unplayable today anyhow.

Anyone who knows me, knows the one I am after from a tape source is his Diamond label hit, Ben Crazy.]]> Mon, 24 Nov 2008 11:13:21 +0000 https://top40musiconcd.com/forum/forum_posts.asp?TID=1062&PID=19932&title=mr-jaws-dickie-goodman#19932 https://top40musiconcd.com/forum/forum_posts.asp?TID=1062&PID=19931&title=mr-jaws-dickie-goodman#19931 Author: EdisonLite
