not talking about Hendrix' guitar being distorted.) My CD is probably
one of the first releases, so the distortion may be in the A-D

I'm curious why you feel you know from listening to a CD what is
intentional distortion and what is unintentional distortion.

I think you'd have to listen to the vinyl to approach figuring that out.

Who knows? Back then they weren't all that hip as to what would

Experienced" that when summed to mono, Jimi's vocals would pretty much
disappear leaving nothing but the echo return. I don't think it was
intentional.
