Title: fantastic music, but NOT stereo
Review: okay...this is supposed to be a part of the Stereo Action Series. In fact, it is one of the very first entries in that line of crazy stereo recordings. My old and worn LP is a lot of fun in stereo, but this CD release is the MONO version, thus defeating the purpose of even calling it a stereo action recording. While the musical arrangements are absolutely top notch, there is much less life in this mono version than in the stereo edition. Hopefully this will be rectified at some point in the future, but I doubt it. The rediscovery of cocktail music which led to its resurgent craze in the mid to late 90s has died down...too bad. I hope the stereo tape is not lost to the ages.
