JohnnyBeDamned Joined: Jul 25, 2011 Posts: 3	Posted on Aug 19 2011 08:25 AM 1) In Space 2) Live in Japan ‘65 3) Batman Theme 4) Walk Don't Run ‘64 5) Fabulous Ventures Considering the rarity of most of the American Ventures CDs, I’ve found the mono/stereo Japanese CD editions to be worthwhile. The sound quality is amazing, and I found I often prefer the mono mixes, particularly on aggressive tracks like “The Creeper” (Walk Don't Run ’64). Top
