jimmer Posted November 27, 2011 Share Posted November 27, 2011 hello. i have the double vinyl edition of YHF. i'm wondering if there was ever a single lp version of this? i've searched around and cannot find it, but that doesn't mean it is nonexistent. it seems a little tedious to have to switch the vinyl 3 times considering the length of the record... thanks!

rockinrob Posted November 28, 2011 Share Posted November 28, 2011 It has only come out as a double album. The first edition was pressed by sundazed, the 2nd by nonesuch. If the running length is any longer than 22 minutes per side records lose volume drastically and become noisier. I have a couple albums that are 28 - 32 minutes on a side and they are about 1/3rd the volume of a normal 20 minute long side, and sound pretty bad. When you have to crank it up that much more to get at the same volume noise becomes a real issue. Yankee is too long to fit well onto a single album, but too short to make a normal double lp, which are usually at least 60 minutes. Quote Link to post Share on other sites
SarahC Posted November 28, 2011 Share Posted November 28, 2011 Weird, because W(TA) is only one disc, but the run time on it is something like 55mins and change.... Maybe, too, it has to do with how the record itself is produced. Quote Link to post Share on other sites
