Enoch Light and Command Records came up with some pretty goofy concepts to show off hi-fi equipment. Techniques from recording on 35MM tape to ping pong stereo effects dominate the catalog.
Here's a goofy attempt.
Enoch Light and the Light Brigade - Dimension '3' (Command 1964)
The 'gimmick' here is the simulation of three tracks. Everything is hard panned left, right or center. This gives the illusion of having three speakers.
Like any of the Enoch Light/Command records, this one is a fairly fun listen.
The Stores. The Chores. The Mainstream. The Oddball. The Serious. The Goofy. The Awesome. The Not So Awesome. 45's. 33's. The 'What Were They Thinking.' Stories from the Store. Observations from my armchair.
What's All This Then
Why should I care what this guy has to say?
The correct answer is that you shouldn’t. We’re all entitled to our opinions. Develop your own. I try to be sane and rational, but that may change with the level of caffeine intake. I’m just telling my stories in the hopes they may amuse and/or inform others. And... I Confess... I'm showing off my bitchen collection a bit.
