Re: Axis - Safe Stereo?
There are two officially released stereo versions of ABAL.
The first to appear was on the Track Records, Barclay and Reprise Records releases.. Followed by Polydor but all Polydor's [as far as we are aware right now] are the "safe" mix.
To tell the difference quickly check out Little Wing. This has an extra note just past the minute mark on the Polydor "safe" mix. While the initial opening swirling guitar is missing from You Got Me Floating.
Further closer listening will reveal a lot of differences, some slight some more obvious. Mitches voice in EXP stay to one side rather than being panned at one point in EXP on the Polydor.
Happy listening.
