John Parr - St. Elmo’s Fire

   You are correct todd, I do not consider switched channels to be a remix.  With regards to this John Parr song, my handwritten note to self says that some cd appearances have a high hat in the introduction although I must admit when I pulled out one or two cd's with the remix comment I did not notice the high hat being noticeably louder than the original cd release.  Anyone else notice this difference?

	Pat - I'm not sure if your note is simply referring to the increased clarity from the Rhino source tape. Compared with the more common version that cuts off part of the opening note, the difference is pretty striking. And if you weren't expecting a hi-hat in the opposite channel (because the Rhino version has L/R channels switched), it might have appeared that the hi-hat came out of nowhere. Just a thought. I've never encountered any real remix of the song myself.
