small faces - itchycoo park - stereo remix Ia
Edit 1a for headphones of the mono single, November 2014. Real deep bass here & there and the phase effect left undiluted... and a decent start and end to the video. "Itchycoo Park" was released by Small Faces in August 1967. The song reached number 3 in Holland and the UK and number 16 in the American Billboard Hot 100 chart in 1968.
"Itchycoo Park" climbed the charts again when it was re-released on 13 December 1975, it reached # 11.
The song was one of the first pop singles to use flanging, an effect that can be heard in the bridge section after each chorus.Most sources credit the use of the effect to Olympic Studios engineer George Chkiantz who showed it to the Small Faces' regular engineer Glyn Johns (also the Rolling Stones' engineer).
Although many devices were soon created that could produce the same effect by purely electronic means, the effect as used on "Itchycoo Park" was at that time an electro-mechanical studio process. Two synchronised tape copies of a finished recording were played simultaneously into a third master recorder, and by manually retarding the rotation of one of the two tape reels (flanges) using the fingers, a skilled engineer could subtly manipulate the phase difference between the two sources, creating the lush 'swooshing' phase effect that sweeps up and down the frequency range. Because the original single version was mixed and mastered in mono, the flanging effect in "Itchycoo Park" is more pronounced in its original mono mix, and is noticeably diluted in the subsequent stereo mix.
In the sixties I - ruudtes - did the same with a mono pick up with variable speed control: first I recorded a song on track one of a mono two track tape recorder, and then I rerecorded the song on the second track while listening to the first track. By varying the speed of the turntable I could get the phase effect anywhere I liked it to be.
