Mono Albums Discography

The idea here is to showcase some recordings (vinyl or CD), it doesn't really matter. Playback is as complicated as you want to make it. Personally I have taken to listening to mono stuff head-on, looking at a speaker as if it was a television. I get good results this way. With a stereo rig, there are noise-reductions that can be achieved through various tricks, whether it's using a mono button on your amp, rewiring your cartridge, or my current adopted method of a "double Y cable."
Note: all mono vinyl I include refers to versions cut after 1968 which use a stereo cutting head and consequently should not be played back using the larger "mono sized" stylus.
