I recently picked up this album and I'm having trouble identifying it. I don't know much about these early columbia pressings, so I'm looking for help in narrowing this one down. A member of the Steve Hoffman Audio Forum made a post describing exactly what I've found. http://forums.stevehoffman.tv/threa...-mono-recordings.328198/page-22#post-14423829
I'm perplexed by this. The label reads the same matrix code that can be identified as a promotional mono press, yet is also labelled as stereo whereas the promo was mono. The record sounds fantastic, and also sounds mono. Photos of the label and deadwax are attached. Apologies for the glare in one, just wanted the matrix to be visible. Along with that runout etching are other symbols, like as described in that other forum post I linked.
