MONO RADIO PROMO 45s (to 1975) (MusicProf)
392 videos • 22,942 views • by AnotherProf And look for post-1975 mono promo 45 transfers at this playlist: https://www.youtube.com/playlist?list... Arranged by artist name, these are all direct vinyl transfers of mono promotional 45s which were produced primarily for AM radio play when the corresponding commercial single was a stereo release. Major best-sellers which you don’t see here are those for which I do not have access to the actual promo 45 or which were not released in mono form. Into the early 1970s the great majority of store-bought 45s continued to be issued in monaural form. Because of that (and because I was not working in commercial radio throughout that period with access to the incoming record shipments), you won't find many mono-exclusive pre-1972 promo tracks here. A few of these are shorter edited versions of the commercial (stereo) single releases. Some may be noticeably different in musical content or mix from the regular releases while others are basic 'fold-down to mono' treatments of the stereo track. In the written description of each video is a link to this channel's also-posted corresponding stock stereo 45 version. Thanks for listening!
