[bomp] Re: "eight miles high" - demo and single versions




<<Dave Hassinger was god, did the first "Eight Miles High,">>

i've heard a lot of other people (including crosby and mcguinn) refer to the
original 12/65 version of "eight miles high" as the superior version. am i the
only person who thinks the single version blows it out of the water? the sound
on the 12/65 is way too thin for my tastes...it has the same sort no-low-end
tin-canniness of a lot of stones records from the same period...who produced
the single version?? it always sounded (to my ears, anyway) like more a WHOLE,
whereas the 12/65 version just sounded like a lot of elements that didn't
really mix that well....
