I have a random mp3 of "The Wheel of Hurt" that I'm happy to share with you all. It sounds clear to me, but perhaps from vinyl. It sounds good to me, though.

Is the Stereo version of "Here It Comes Again" a re-recorded version? I own it on the London Time Pieces reissue 45.

For "Here It Comes Again" - for some reason, the stereo LP
version uses a different vocal take than the mono 45, but the backing track is the same one. So the stereo is definitely a "LP Version" and the hit version is only in mono. MM |

Re: Here It Comes Again - i did a quick synch on that
years ago, which was how i learned the vocals takes were different. I put them one in each channel so it's easy to hear when something is an alternate. The 2 takes are incredibly close, so i just synched them again to see if i could pick out any differences - the result was surprising. The vocals are so similar it's almost impossible to "A/B" and tell them apart, until you get to 1:32, the word "again" is sustained for 2 beats in the stereo instead of one beat in the 45. The surprising part is at 1:55, they become the same take. They are then the same recording all the way to the end, except in the mono mix a tambourine overdub appears at 2:56 that is is not in the LP version. The explanation for this is simple, for the mono mix, they spliced together 2 takes to make the hit. Come time to mix it for the stereo LP, they simply mixed one of the 2 takes. Since the 2 takes were so similar, i'm sure they figured no one would ever notice. But then i'm sure they couldn't have dreamed of this forum! :-) Just thought i'd share that odd forensic find. |

one final correction; the tambourine overdub is actually
thru-out the mono mix on every chorus. i hadn't heard it clearly because the 45 i used to synch was badly worn. oops. MM |
