Notes:

This is one of the rare occasions where the Jordanaires appear in the left channel on the final 2-channel mix. The position of the Jordanaires was preseved by BMG on the Double Features mix, but not on any of the outtakes.

The CD "Spin-in...Spinout" (LSD 1966) is the primary source choice for about half of this session in spite of hiss and possible high-end raise+rough notch filter to compensate. The Famous Groove 2-CD "The Complete Spinout Session" (FG 2331) is arguably the best source for the rest of the session with completely dry vocals, hiss, possible mid-frequency drop, generation loss and possibly lacking one of the original 3 channels. "Celluloid Rock vol. 2" (Cool Romeo) has a binaural mix with raised mid-range, high-end loss and digital echo on the other hand. Apart from that, it may be of a better analog generation than the Famous Groove release.

The sound of BMG's Double Features is good in spite of a high-end filter from 11 kHz and above. "Out in Hollywood"(FTD) has the best frequency response, but also more of that dreadful digital delay and possible clarity improvements. "Collectors Gold" is the worst of them all with tons of cheap echo; they didn't have a clue on what to do with dry outtakes in 1991.
