This is a stereo mix of this song (Ready to take a chance again) and it sounds better in MONO. It was on a movie and it was MONO there and its also mono on "Barry Manilow Greatest Hits (Record and 8 track))
The Ric Ocasek cassette is insanely good... Its his first SOLO album (1982 (and he does "New Wave" music and its quite good.... His next abum isnt till 1986 when Benjimen Orr put out the album LACE with the smash song "Stay the night")) |
All I can find is the song was recorded in stereo. So it would have been in stereo on the single and the soundtrack releases too. I've not seen anything to indicate it was recorded in anything other than stereo. It was the late 70s most things were stereo by then. Technology had progressed by that point. Nothing sounds better in Mono!
Our ears were designed to hear 360 sound, so stereo will naturally appeal to our ears as we can hear the different sounds and instruments more clearly.
