PERCY SLEDGE/WHEN A MAN LOVES A WOMAN 588015 (-66) UK STEREO

 Had the UK corresponding mono for years  https://monolover.blogspot.com/2017/11/percy-sledgewhen-man-loves-woman-587.html  and still enjoying that when in the mood. It is one of the best and most successful sixties romantic albums, reaching high on many lists back then, e.g. #1 on Billboard and #6 in UK. So when I spotted this stereo in a bin at a reasonable price thought it would be nice to pick it and see if that in any way could add something. Since the mono have high quality mix and audio I hoped this in some way could answer to that and maybe offer new insight. But I shouldn't have bothered. There's nothing even close to stereo here. Some parts may have been slightly enhanced mono and some may had have a miniscule duophonic treatment, but most of the time pressing the mono button on the stereo makes no difference at all. I actually had to check the matrices to see if it was a mislabeled mono, but as they were 588015 A#1/588015 B#1 that wasn't the case. However the audio is good so it's not a bad choice if you just wanna enjoy, but if you already have the mono you won't need it. Never heard a US stereo and am curious if that is true, or sounds like this. If anyone reading this knows, please comment and tell. For more details on the UK release check link above.(PÖCY*)  (ÄTHP*)
