David, I couldn't remember since my LP is long gone. So I
just checked Discogs. My album was "Greatest Hits" which
is listed as 1975. So I stand corrected on the date. I
guess I just assumed it was late 60s because the album
looked like a 60s style cover.

MM,

do you recall the title of that "Best of". Maybe "The Walker Brothers
Story" (1968)?]]> Thu, 17 Jan 2019 01:58:55 +0000 https://top40musiconcd.com/forum/forum_posts.asp?TID=662&PID=50983&title=sun-aint-gonna-shine-anymore#50983 https://top40musiconcd.com/forum/forum_posts.asp?TID=662&PID=48480&title=sun-aint-gonna-shine-anymore#48480 Author: Michaeldila

Thanks MM. i had read somewhere a while ago that a stereo version of
the single mix was on one of the eric records cd’s but that was
innaccurate. ]]> Sun, 29 Oct 2017 08:40:10 +0000 https://top40musiconcd.com/forum/forum_posts.asp?TID=662&PID=48480&title=sun-aint-gonna-shine-anymore#48480 https://top40musiconcd.com/forum/forum_posts.asp?TID=662&PID=48473&title=sun-aint-gonna-shine-anymore#48473 Author: MMathews

Pat, the stereo mix is from 60s but only released
overseas. Smash in the U.S. just wasn't given or didn't
ask for it in stereo. Years ago I had both of their hits
in stereo on a UK best-of album from late 60s.
Like many other UK hits, the stereo versions made their
way over here in the CD era.

As for the early fade, it's just another case of whoever
mixed it for stereo at the time just approximated the
fade based on notes or whatever. Most people didn't or
don't care - but ooooh so frustrating to us collectors!
(and for crazy mastering guys who's job it is to "fix" an
early fade on a stereo master, too many times)

Michaeldila, to my knowledge there's only the one mix.
It's possible a particular CD might sound a little better
if the engineer EQ'd it differently but that's about all
they can do. Sometimes narrowing the channels will bring
a vocal out a little more in the center.
MM

3:04 is the correct LP and 45 length for this song and there is only 1 cd in the US that includes the complete version of this song and that is the JCI cd mentioned in the database. The vinyl LP which states stereo, is not stereo, so that leads me to believe that the song was remixed from the multitracks for stereo cd release and there must be some tape damage at the point where the stereo versions fade out.]]> Sat, 21 Jan 2006 20:19:52 +0000 https://top40musiconcd.com/forum/forum_posts.asp?TID=662&PID=3480&title=sun-aint-gonna-shine-anymore#3480 https://top40musiconcd.com/forum/forum_posts.asp?TID=662&PID=3478&title=sun-aint-gonna-shine-anymore#3478 Author: Chris Quinn

Todd,
The imported "Portrait" CD has been digitally remastered from the original master tapes. Sound
quality is top notch. You apparently have the 45
length version, but I'd recommend getting the
import disc for the improvement in quality plus
you'll have the extra length of fadeout not on the
45.

3:04 is how long the mono version runs on my Love Sixties CD. So I take it, I do have the complete 45 length then?

As I mentioned in my previous post, the sound quality of "The Sun Ain't Gonna Shine Anymore" on this disc is awful. Chris Quinn, how would you describe the sound quality of the song on your import CD?]]> Sat, 21 Jan 2006 08:49:42 +0000 https://top40musiconcd.com/forum/forum_posts.asp?TID=662&PID=3476&title=sun-aint-gonna-shine-anymore#3476 https://top40musiconcd.com/forum/forum_posts.asp?TID=662&PID=3474&title=sun-aint-gonna-shine-anymore#3474 Author: Paul Esch
