So not officially different recorded mixes, but fan made. That's my hunch from listening to them. And still an interesting listen.

I just downloaded What's The World & that's what I think too. It's home-made from the 5.1 setup, with input on some channels taken down to zero.
I don't mind when fans do this because it's very interesting hearing things that you can't hear otherwise, i.e., when all track inputs are at normal levels. Some fans did this with the Rumours DVD-Audio, too, & I always loved the results. I only wish some of the other projects would be released in versions mixed for 5.1 -- like the 1980 album or Law & Order. You need that 5.1 mix to eliminate channel input on your home system. Did Shangri-La get released in 5.1? or Christine's solo album? (probably not that)
Remember that guy who used to post here a few years ago? What was his name? Poopoo or Pooper or something? He used to do a little of this wizardry too.
