Thanks Permagin, great info. I do have to admit that the mono version is very well done, and I really don't mind it at all. I came across another sight that made reference to the LP version of Liar (Naturally album) being stereo while the 45 single version was mono. The Naturally version was probably the album I listened to when I was a kid. I didn't think this original album would be on CD and just assumed its tracks would live-on on greatest hits or anthology compilations rather than an actual remastered album in CD format. I have to agree about twofer albums. I've bought twofer albums before and they seem to me to be hit or miss quality wise.
As an aside, I recall, as a kid, sneaking into my brother's room to listen to TDN on his slick, and delicate looking, stereo with nothing but his light boxes flashing all different colors to light my attempts at being reeaallllly careful not to scratch his records. lol. What great music to grow up with. I'd always thought that those half dozen years around 1970 were simply and truly classic.
