Elected Re-Recorded?
There's an Alice Cooper 'Songs' thread on the Hoffman Forum, which is currently discussing the BDB album. One poster has stated that Elected was re-recorded for the album version. Is that correct?

Not that I'm aware of but I don`t know for sure. Listen to them both and see if they are the same?

Same recording, slightly different mix.

Yes, that's what I've always thought. As I understood it, Ezrin mixed the 45 vocal so that Alice was 'centred', giving it a bit more 'oomph', for AM radio. The original album mix had Alice's voice panned to the right channel only.Si wrote:Same recording, slightly different mix.

The album mix would not have worked well with mono AM radio.
I find the elected and UMW single mixes the most different from their album versions.

The album mix didn't work well on that either!! Thank goodness for Electrophonic! A Christmas present after blowing volume tubes monthly!!
