I've no idea whether a stereo studio version exists or not, but by this time ,8 track machines were in use in Engliush studios, so why on earth would they not have recorded it in stereo or, if not initially record it ,then have mixed it down into stereo ? Why would you not do that ?
When they did their recordings for BBC radio (don't know if they ever did Oh Well for John Peel's Show - probably not? ) but did the BBC record these sessions in stereo ? I'd be surprised if they didn't ? |

Yeah it seems to be a different mix of the Boston version. Sorry guys.
The BBC version I have is from the double disk "Live at the BBC" (Green plays his resonator) and it is in mono. It seems to have overdubs on it too. How live were the versions at the BBC really? |

of course, some recordings have actually been done in the bbc studios (more or less "live", meaning: with or without overdubs) for broadcasts. but even more so-called bbc recordings are based on the original recordings. many bbc studio sessions (check the who or status quo, for example) were nothing more than the original backing tracks, mixed slightly differently (thus with a different sound) with a new set of vocals on top. what definitely was live, though, were the "in concert" series of recordings and the likes, being recorded in front of an audience at places like the paris theatre in london (like the live set on disc 2 of the "show-biz blues" double cd). i hope this helps, lespaul7. |

first you'll have to consider that "oh well" has been recorded for release as a 45, not as part of the "then play on" album in the first place. and 45s at that time have mostly been released in mono. nevertheless the recording must've been done on a multitrack machine (probably 8-track). but as we've learned again and again - sometimes tapes were wiped (accidentally or on purpose) or somehow simply vanished . . . be it as it may - as long as the original multitrack recording will not miraculously show up in some vaults, there'll be no stereo version of the studio "oh well". ken garner states in his book "the peel sessions" that recording in stereo at the bbc studios wasn't possible until ca. mid-1970, and even then it was the absolute exception to the rule, because fm broadcasting in stereo didn't start until early 1972. |
