going back to what Savage Clone was saying about some mono mixes sounding better than stereo fixed mixes. i think that most recordings at the time, even if they were recorded on 4 or 8 track machines (like abbey road studios), were thought of to be best heard on one track and tried to create audio depth on one dimention which might account for it sounding so awesome. some records were recorded and thought up to be in stereo but then bounced to mono, losing some of it's magic so when the stereo remixes started, many really showed their true sound then.
i haven't heard any mono mixes so far, i only know the beatles, pink floyd and velvet underground have released mono mixes.
