Capitol did not remix the Pet Sounds album in true stereo until 1996 for the 30th Anniversary box set. It was turned into a 4-CD set with many alternate takes and a 38 page book.
after seeing an advertisement on Pet Sounds in a Teen mag showing the album cover with New Improved Full Dimensional Stereo. the possibility exists that this configuration is out there. Although i have looked thru countless Pet Sounds Lp covers over a 40 year period and have never seen one. But the again the Today lp cover with for stereo phonographs i just discovered last week for the first time. So who knows what still may be lurking out there.
Well it looks like Duophonic for stereo phonographs wins hands down. NO contest. I've checked over 500 Pet Sounds albums on the internet just in the last couple of days . yes i know, no social life. and i still haven't found one for stereo phonographs white border on the internet yet. i found about 80 duophonics however. I did not realise just how uncommon that configuration is. I found mine sealed but i opened it . it was a resealed job covering up a punch hole. But it still had that crinkly feel to the shrink not the rubberised feel of the 80's, though that's the decade i found it. I'm talking in the USA nowhere else.
