Does anyone here actually own the Japanese singles set or have a dub of "Touch Me" from the set?

I have some questions, feel free to PM me.

Thank you!

1. Collectors like them -- they have all the original cover art, etc.
2. They can charge more money

No offense, but I don't get the whole "singles set"
mentality. A pricey collection of CDs, each with 2 songs
on them. Why not just issue one CD with the A&B sides of
the singles? Dunno about the rest of you, but storage
space can be an issue for many of us.

Doug:

This would be the new Doors Singles box set, a Japanese 14-CD compilation where each disc represents a faithful reproduction of the band's 14 vinyl single releases in Japan between 1967 and 1972. It's my understanding that each of these 45 versions were mastered from tape sources!

Which box set is this, Aaron?]]> Thu, 11 Jul 2013 20:16:25 +0000 https://top40musiconcd.com/forum/forum_posts.asp?TID=221&PID=38431&title=the-doors-touch-me#38431 https://top40musiconcd.com/forum/forum_posts.asp?TID=221&PID=38426&title=the-doors-touch-me#38426 Author: aaronk

Now that the Doors box set has been released, I was finally able to hear what the stereo single of "Touch Me" is supposed to sound like--from tape source!

I agree with Bill that the mono DJ 45 is a unique mix and is not simply a fold down of either the stereo LP or stereo single version. In addition to the horns and strings being more prominent, there is less reverb on the drums. Also, as Bill pointed out, it runs slower by about 1.5%.]]> Thu, 11 Jul 2013 10:40:18 +0000 https://top40musiconcd.com/forum/forum_posts.asp?TID=221&PID=38426&title=the-doors-touch-me#38426 https://top40musiconcd.com/forum/forum_posts.asp?TID=221&PID=29046&title=the-doors-touch-me#29046 Author: Bill Cahill

I finally found a mono DJ 45 of "Touch Me" by the Doors. Sounds like a dedicated mono mix for AM radio, or at least a mix that favors the channel with the horns, as the horns are much more prominent than if you simply sum the stereo single. More significantly, it runs slower. Label time says 3:09 just like the stereo single (which runs 3:11), but my mono DJ 45 runs 3:14. ]]> Fri, 28 Jan 2011 17:46:47 +0000 https://top40musiconcd.com/forum/forum_posts.asp?TID=221&PID=29046&title=the-doors-touch-me#29046 https://top40musiconcd.com/forum/forum_posts.asp?TID=221&PID=2048&title=the-doors-touch-me#2048 Author: MMathews

As if it was the slightest bit important, the "Stronger Than Dirt" jingle was for Ajax. :-D (maybe it was important to Jim....)]]> Tue, 20 Sep 2005 13:29:43 +0000 https://top40musiconcd.com/forum/forum_posts.asp?TID=221&PID=2048&title=the-doors-touch-me#2048 https://top40musiconcd.com/forum/forum_posts.asp?TID=221&PID=2024&title=the-doors-touch-me#2024 Author: BillCahill

The single Wishful Sinful was also remixed in the same way as Touch Me for 45 release. Punchier mix. That single mix hasn't made it to CD either. ]]> Sun, 18 Sep 2005 07:57:58 +0000 https://top40musiconcd.com/forum/forum_posts.asp?TID=221&PID=2024&title=the-doors-touch-me#2024 https://top40musiconcd.com/forum/forum_posts.asp?TID=221&PID=1663&title=the-doors-touch-me#1663 Author: Steve Carras

This is my first posting (though I have yet to make my own thread,one on Steely Dan).

I';m listenting to the Doors's original 2-minute,55 second LIGHT MY FIRE, and I'd like to add
The song has a tinkling piano when Jim slows down and concludes the vocal on LP, violions on single.

At the end the single goes DA DA DA DA but the LP has a parody of a then-current commercial phrase from detergent TIDE's ad..STRONBGER THAN DIRT.:)]]> Fri, 29 Jul 2005 00:15:09 +0000 https://top40musiconcd.com/forum/forum_posts.asp?TID=221&PID=1663&title=the-doors-touch-me#1663
