The disco mix of Barry Manilow's 1978 classic sounds much different than the AM radio mixes on the LP and single. The sound stage is opened up, Barry doesn't sound like he's at the bottom of a canyon, the bass and drums get a boost and each element of the mix has room to breathe.
My specs:
Recorded using a Pro-Ject Debut Carbon EVO turntable with Acryl-It platter, record clamp and AT VM540ML cart. All records are cleaned on a VPI 16.5 with Adobe Audition CC used for recording and processing with clicks removed manually.
