That youtube video sounds like what I've always assumed was the Quad mix and is the same mix that is on my albums which are Fantasy re-issues. ]]> Sat, 04 Apr 2020 18:57:50 +0000 https://top40musiconcd.com/forum/forum_posts.asp?TID=5233&PID=53960&title=ccr-stereo#53960 https://top40musiconcd.com/forum/forum_posts.asp?TID=5233&PID=53945&title=ccr-stereo#53945 Author: VWestlife

I just came across the full stereo, double-tracked-vocal version of "Bad Moon Rising" on a Westwood One Radio Networks CD of the show "New Gold on CD" from 1990, which despite its name contained many tracks transferred from vinyl, including this one:

It just sounds like a plain stereo mix, not matrixed quad (like SQ or QS).

The CDs from this show have many creative edits, such as splicing in the missing verse of the stereo version of "Leader of the Pack" from the mono version, shifting extended single-channel passages to the center of the stereo image, blending wide stereo mixes (like James Brown's "I Got You (I Feel Good)") to narrow stereo, fading out "Hey Jude" early (around 4:30), etc. I also found on them a clean stereo copy of "Bobby's Girl", not drenched in reverb like the version I had from a commercially released CD.

Late pressings of Creedence Gold also had the wide stereo on Bad Moon Rising and Proud Mary.

I don't know if those are simply pressings of the quad album with standard packaging and labelling, or a new stereo master was made based on the quad.

I bought a couple of those, where the cover does not have the separate cardboard for each profile and it features the later Fantasy label.

Both of those late issues that I bought with the flat card board cover and new label have the wide stereo.

There was a Quad LP of Creedence Gold issued, it is also where Proud mary turned up in wide-ish stereo for the first time, too....but it's a straight turntable dub of that quad LP that yielded the echoey Bad Moon Rising, based on how they mixed it for the LP.]]> Sat, 10 Oct 2009 01:20:34 +0000 https://top40musiconcd.com/forum/forum_posts.asp?TID=5233&PID=24112&title=ccr-stereo#24112 https://top40musiconcd.com/forum/forum_posts.asp?TID=5233&PID=24111&title=ccr-stereo#24111 Author: Hykker

Never heard the Dion medley, but I agree the CCR one was awful. While it was interesting in where it somewhat chronicled the band's career, it was a musical trainwreck.
Was the Dion one part of the early 80s medley fad which included ones of the Beatles, Beachboys & Supremes too?
