Default People Don't Listen To Music - Turn Down Sony or Turn Down Day?

I like the ping pong stereo on turn down day.

Sony issued some "budget" multiple CD compilations, various artist. They
had their "boys" remix some songs. I must say, their choice of "boys" is
poor. Vic A. a Battery "Mastering" Studios (formerly Sony Studios) is one
of the worst, as well as Bob Irwin of Sundazed. Some of their "premier"
stereo mixes are pathetic.

Maybe you know this US Top 40 song by The Cyrkle, "Turn Down Day", 1966, I
quickly noticed something was wrong. Yes, after the lyrics, "..children
playing.." that drum riff should not have been included [it was a flop].
This tells me Sony hires people who really don't even know the songs Sony
publishes!!!

Sort of tough to make Stereo out of a near mono mix. Also, you MAY notice,
the screaming at the end is missing!!! Maybe it was added (overdubbed) to
the stereo master tape!!
