One is stereo and one is mono and the mixes are different.  

[JSngry]

That's the obvious then. Thanks.

[jazzbo]

I know. I get blowback and some disdain often enough mentioning anything audio around here. . . It's a different mix with subtly differing instrumental and vocal balances--I'll limit my comments to that.

Were they just doing fold downs by then, or would it be a dedicated moni mix?

I thought maybe there were different takes or something. I've learned to never be surprised.

Sun Ra “Pathways to Unknown Worlds” Modern Harmonic cd

A 1975 Sun Ra recording. This is about as far as I go with Ra in general. In the right mood . . . I’m almost there. . . it’s a fun listen.

This was one of the Ra releases on ABC/Impulse originally.
