[78-L] 78s - Capitol/ Parlophone/ The Beatles

[agp]

I have always wondered what the quality was of the Beatles 78s from 
India and the Philippines. The Philippines 78s I have from the 60s 
sound really good, as do the Indian ones. The Philippines 78 of the 
The Young Ones by Cliff Richard on Parlophone is really loud (great 
bass) and quiet. The Indian 78 of Mexican Shuffle by Herb Alpert on 
Statesside (an EMI label) is equally nice. Both are superior to the 
domestic 45s.

Of course I've also always been curious as to which of the myriad of 
mixes that seemed to come out of Abbey Road were used for the 78s -- 
mono mixes, reductions from stereo, etc ..... but my wallet will not 
afford that opportunity
