I know everyone wants the true 45 versions...but wouldn't it be nice if we could hear "Goin' Out of My Head / Can't Take My Eyes Off You" without the canned applause. I'd like something like the remix of Rare Earth's "Get Ready" that removed the fake applause.
I guess it could of been done for the CD "Capital Collectors Series"...but it wasn't. I think the song holds up well today (just like their version of "Hurts So Bad") but doesn't get much airplay (even though it's a Top 10 song)...and it's probably because of the applause! |

Was it a studio recording with audience overdubbed? I have the live album, but it's never sounded anything other than live to me.... ------------- Live in stereo. |

| I always thought it sounded "canned" to me. If you have a live LP I stand corrected! |

| The studio version is listed in the database as the 'non-hit'. Since I was a wee little boy, I've always heard the song with applause. |

I also believe the single was a studio concoction that was inserted in a 'live' album (a la Fifth Dimension's "Never My Love").
Certainly the audience response was canned as it fades out in the beginning (instead of dissipating). The impeccable perfomance & engineering of the track also raises red flags. Andy |

| My commercial 45, which is mono and confirmed as Capitol 2054, has a listed time of (2:55), but an actual time of (3:05). |

Me,too, and always thought that it's LIVE!! First time that I heard of this non- applause recording! ------------- You know you're really older when you think that younger singer Jesse McCartney's related in anyway to former Beatle Paul McCartney. |

You can safely add this to the list of studio recordings
with canned applause. If you listen to the mix, it's quite obviously a typical late-60's hard-panned multi from a studio session. Notice the drum/bass/piano track is completely isolated from the horn and string and vocal tracks. A real live recording mix would not sound like that. Just sayin' MM |
