Songs Not On CD or Almost Impossible to Find

Be CAREFUL playing amateur stereo remixes on the air...when listeners hear them in mono on AM or when their radios blend the FM multiplex in the edge of city grade to fringe areas, the volume may drop significantly, or vocals may dissapear alltogether! Sometimes they play with the phasing to gain separation. NFG. Be sure to audition a mono summed mixdown of them before broadcasting. If THAT sounds like the hit version...got for it.

Although Chuck Berry DID have some stereo releases: Nadine, No Particular Pace To Go, You Never Can Tell, My Ding-A-Ling (ugh, his only #1) basically anything from his 1964 comback and later. All else is mono, like his key of B one track mind.

a perfect example of you statement is the stereo remixx of La bamba by Ritchie valens..the vocals disappear completely on AM,but, anyone who plays stereo mixxs of any kind on AM is asking for trouble...that's why the safe practise on AM is save as a mono mix-down...no exceptions.
