A great clean stereo backing track, I used to hear this on the radio as a kid, a hit in UK and U.S. (number one there), just before The Beatles exploded there. But despite this being Japanese recorded, two different stereo mixes of this exist, one voice centered, and one binaural. So you probably took the instrumental channel from the binaural mix, monauralized it so it came equally out of both channels, and stereo separated that. But you have done a great instrumental separation.
This comes from a genuine stereo backing track, provided by one of my late friend around ten years ago, this is why the track sounds so clear without vocal because there is none.
I have the mono LP and 45 and the backing track on those versions is different than the stereo one slightly, so did they do multiple takes for stereo and mono?
@@rvstuff5 Maybe. It happened frequently in the UK and in the States. But I do not know about Japan. Early Cliff Richard albums that were recorded in the UK contained tracks of which the mono releases contained different takes of some of the tracks from the stereo releases. A typical example is his 1960 album Me And My Shadows. With three of the tracks, Choppin' & Changin, We Have It Made, and I'm Willing To Learn, the mono release contained his mid to late 1959 recordings. The stereo copies contained his mid 1960 stereo re-recordings. With another track Tell Me, the stereo issue contained an earlier version with no backing vocals. With another track, I Want You To Know, the mono issue only, contained overdubbed acoustic guitar over the rhythm guitar break in the middle. Another album from later in the sixties by The Yardbirds, their self-titled album from 1966 also contained variations of some of the tracks from the mono to stereo release, likewise Otis Redding's 1965 album Otis Blue, but obviously recorded in the States.
@@rvstuff5 That is possible, I haven't made the test myself to see if they are identicals, remember that it happened often in the 60's that the stereo mix (mostly from LPs) and the mono single mix (from 45 rpm) were slightly or sometimes, very different,
beautiful... once heard the story how he had passed away after his plane had struck the side of a mtn... he survived the crash BUT the Japanize govt. refused to accept the US offer to rescue the survivors of the crash since the US had forces near where the crash happened.. sad.. TY Peter!

@@lypilapa I agree. But I have now duscovered his whistling in the middle is still there.
