[78-L] Fake stereo

[Ryan Wolfe]

Les Paul must surely have been an influence with his tape echo-y productions with Mary Ford, and that was a few years before Phillips started doing it.

" I found out how useful echo of any kind can be in
enhancing poor singers – no wonder Sam Phillips loaded up Presley, Cash and the
rest of his roster with echo – and it created a whole generation and all those
who followed.  Singers with real vibrato
are a thing of the past – let the machine do it.  It was the road sign to the future.  We have arrived.

So you were the ONE person who was the "Public Demand" for fake stereo,
so much so that you did it yourself!!  Well, at least you didn't inflict
it on others like the record companies did. :-)

By the way, I didn't go out and buy those three Toscanini LMEs.  I found
two of them in the warehouse of the distributor I worked for in 66 and
67 -- my boss GAVE them to me because they were unsalable even at a
quarter.  I found the third one junking many years later.
