About this listen
Hello Friends! In today's episode we're heading out with a downright Australian classic, The Loved One's Magic Box. Issue in October 1967 as a collection of 10 of the group's previously released tracks and two warmup covers, this album is home today to classics such as 'The Loved One', 'Ever Lovin' man' and 'Sad Dark Eyes', but despite being issued in mono and stereo, the last 40 years have not been kind to the state of this LP. As of 1985, all issues of this album comprise of a faulty master created from an isolation of the left channel of the stereo mix summed to mono (with one exception), meaning many elements panned to the right are now lost, providing a listening experience not representative of either mix. Today I'll be breaking down what makes the two different mixes both unique and similar, but also tracks where the current digital issue is both a little closer to the intended experience than others, as well as where it truly neuters the experience. Regardless of it all, this album contains some incredible performances, so it back in your loverly car, and let's dive into The Loved Ones' Magic Box.
Happy Listening,
Frederick
