JANUS Janus began releasing stereo singles in June, 1970, with Mungo Jerry's "In The Summertime" [J-125] (see top left). All singles before that were mono. From that point, about half the singles were stereo and half mono. Stereo singles are marked "STEREO" on the label. Promotional copies had a white or light grey label with black print (see bottom left). As far as we can tell, the commercial singles and the promo singles were the same as far as stereo goes. Most promos were two-sided, that is, had both sides of the commercial record, but occasionally they would issue a promo with the same song on both sides. | |
