When stereo SEPARATION first hit you

Just been listening to Beacon Street Union - Eyes of... lp and its full of movement. Sweeping from left channel to right and back.
Back in the day they used more separation studio gimmickry than today.
(Or even those old Dylan lps with his voice on one channel and guitar on other.)

Krautrock used this for their spacey, wide spaces Kosmische. Courtesy of the master, Conny Plank (who devised the Head system).

Can you remember a track with separation that flipped your lid at an early point?

Mine would be the (middle of) the second track on the second Led Zeppelin lp. I would test my speakers on that. (Hell, "Whole Lotta Love" as well.)

Really?

I never noticed that.
.........

"Hey Bulldog" is strange. Very unusual to put the lyrics on the LEFT channel.

Best Beatles track "Nothern Song" from the Sub soundtrack..

The Gods did a great cover of "Hey Bulldog"
