I thought I would start a thread on your observations about the different mixes of this great LP. I read on one of the posts that the mixes were hard to discern. I find it hard to believe. I think they're very different.
I still like the released version better. I think it's more seamless than the Terrana mix. Plus I love Mary's campy spoken intro to "High Energy" which is missing on the other mix. But overall there are some nice interesting differences and vocal turns which vary from mix to mix. One track I love on the Terrana version is "Till the Boat Sails Away." It has an interesting bridge which kind of reminds me of the weird sounding instrument in the bridge of "That's How Heartaches are Made" by the Marvelettes. As I said, overall, I like the seamlessness and I think the more edgy quality [[especially to "Side 1") that the released version has, but I love having both.
Other opinions welcome!
