Separate tracks

Hey,

just made great discovery > release of Big Youth's album Screaming Target (1989 issue) has mix made in separate channels. Toasting form left and the rest from right. I've found the review:

"Unfortunately, Trojan decided to separate the mix for the 1989 issue, sending Youth's toasts to the left channel and the rhythm track to the right, resulting in a rather unbalanced listening experience, depending upon your proximity to the speakers. That aside, the music on this release is simultaneously a benchmark for reggae in general and the DJ form in particular — and a classic of recorded music, regardless of the genre."

Anyway, its great stuff for sampling. Has anyone heard about some other alike recordings?

Please let me know
