Double Tracked Albums.

[Nai Noswad]

Anyone else own one?
I have several.. a song I played recently was "I'm A Boy" by The Who... if you lift the stylus half way thru the song.. a longer version then plays... slightly different to conventional 'double tracking' at Abbey Road.

Is this on a 7" single or lp? Never knowingly come across it.

Never heard of it. Am now interested though

On Vinyl, it's two separate bands on the same side, lift the needle and plonk it down and a longer version plays...

Nope never heard of it.

As I'm in anorak mode ( boring) anyone who owns a vinyl copy of the Stones Satanic Majesties.... Slow down the record on the track' Cosmic Christmas 'with your finger.... And the hidden vocal from the Stones "wishes you a happy Xmas and New year".

Nope never heard of it.

I think Pete Townsend was the pioneer.. Maybe Sir Google will know more?

This is a fascinating concept. Found this interesting article on "double-grooved" records.
