My fake stereo is:                  true mono is:
MCAD-31330-1T small stamped 23      MCAD31330 A60603Bb  MFG BY UNT (opposite on same side)

Hmmm?  BTW, the CD is still in print.  I see at the stores around town
and the new one I bought Saturday was sealed.  I obviously checked the
bar code before I bought it.

The CD is louder with more bass.  The Virgin LP was made with inferior
vinyl that goes bad after several plays says Ed hanel in his discography.  
Mine hasn't but I don't play it much since I have the original Brunswick 
and Decca (mono) albums.
