Brian, I'd thought about registering at the SH forum and starting a thread about the Beatles. But I see there already is one. ;)

You're absolutely right. These projects show exactly who has and hasn't done their homework. Steve has the TLC part down pat. Case in point: on several of the earlier Gary Lewis vinyl 45s, the fades end rather abruptly and with a bit of a "clunk," to boot. The CDs show that that's exactly how they ended on the masters, too. Steve made the effort to smooth out the end tips of these fades without shortening them. There were a couple of instances where I thought the CD fades bailed out early, but when I normalized just the tips of those fades, I found otherwise.

With a set like this.... do they go back to the mono mixdown session masters (which would end cold) and just re-fade them to match the 45 (as opposed to the original 45 masters with the fades built in)? If not, then i don't understand how the tapes would run a little longer for any of the tunes...(This Diamond Ring for example).
Live in stereo.

I've always wondered about this too... It seems so often that a song's fade on CD doesn't match its 45 or LP fades.

Weren't there two different versions of "Sure Gonna Miss
Her"? I seem to remember one with horns and one with what
sounded like a Spanish Guitar. Same vocals, as far as I
remember.

I remember the single had horns in the beginning. Then in November of 1966 I bought the 'Golden Greats'
L.P., Liberty LST-7468, and there were no horns in the beginning. I thought there was an acoustic or
'spanish' guitar in the beginning of both. I've been resigned to the fact that Gary Lewis had more
different mixes of his recordings than anyone I can think of! -Bill.

The "horns" at the beginning of the single mix of "Sure
Gonna Miss Her" are in fact two trombone tracks recorded at
half speed so that they sounded more like Mexican-style
trumpets when played at pitch. I guess they couldn't book
any trumpet players for that particular session so they
used a bit of ingenuity. As far as I know, those horns were
only on the mono mix until the advent of the CD-era stereo
remixes.
