Perhaps your system could be tweaked a bit. Sorry for your luck...Are you sure about that? Look at the top of the cover... fake stereo.
The first true stereo Stones LP was "Aftermath" (although some earlier stuff was remixed in creampuff true stereo for CD release).
And on some of those recordings, the Haeco-CSG encoding has persisted to this very day, even on the current CD and online download versions. Luckily the encoding can be removed by using an audio editor to apply a 90 degree phase shift to the right channel. Now you can finally hear Cream's "White Room" without the blurred, "half-out-of-phase" vocals:A&M and Atlantic dallied with issuing mono/stereo-compatible records using the Haeco-CSG System during '68-'69, and those records sound lousy in either mono or stereo playback!
There were earlier version of this album in mono. My stereo version is dated 1958.

I stand corrected, the only reference to stereo is on the labels. I thought I had read "re-channeled" on the jackets but looking through them I don't see that. Furthermore, I thought they were mastered by someone at Fantasy but in fact I see they were remastered by Rudy Van Gelder, and of course he would not want let alone do rechanneling.They all probably say "stereo" on the label, as a default... but they used the correct mono masters (unless there are some fake stereo releases that I'm not aware of).

I imagine they are cut as stereo records and labeled as such to prevent early '70s confusion about stereo/mono cartridge compatibility, but from a mono master tape.
No wonder they sound good!!

niceAh, Palace Records... one of the infamous supermarket budget labels!
Chet Atkins At Home 1957. I can't tell without looking closer at the album it it's actually stereo or not.
Why no one mentioning any 45s?
When I was young, in the early 60's, we had a neighbor who was insistent that my Dad and I hear this train record. I t had a few steam whistles and then a train slowly rolls from the left channel to the right channel. He was all excited, my Dad and I were just kinda' puzzled."Railroad Sounds Steam and Diesel.

My very first record, that I bought with my own money: The 45 of Hugh Masekela - Grazing in the Grass.
1968. I was 14. Still love that song. I may even still have the 45.
That is an excellent record. I love it too. I don't think the 45 is stereophonic, though, is it?
