F.A.Q.
Who?
I have a turntable and a nice record collection, mostly LP's from the 60's & early 70's.
What?
My aim is to make rare stuff (in glorious mono or sometimes stereo) publicly available again with the best possible sound quality.
Requests?
Generally, no. I select my projects very critically. Vinyl condition is everything. I tend not to work with records that are in less than pristine condition.
Donations?

Thanks for the great rip!
Thank you very much for a tremendous share..
Thanks so much! :)
Wow, thank you very much. I just compared this to the Third Eye, and yours sounds much better and more natural. I have known for a while that the Third Eye was bass boosted but I didn't have a better one to replace it, until now. THANK YOU!!!
Thank you for doing this terrific record.
Thank you... THANK YOU Prof! Nice to see you. This sounds absolutely phenomenal. But may I ask why you decided the 1 channel over the L+R sum? I'm not an expert ripper so just curious.
thank you!!
This is the by far the best mono i've heard of it, Thank you so so much Prof. Stoned!!! if anyones interested, here's a high resolution cover scan https://ptpimg.me/ko05bx.jpg
Folding channels is mainly recommended for masking surface noise and distortion. It lessens high-end snap because you are changing the transcients of the waveform. A single channel will give better fidelity.
This has always been a favorite of mine and of course, mono is the only format to listen to it. Thank you!!!!
Awesome! Huge thanks Prof ;)
Thank you! I literally came here a week or two ago looking to see if you'd done any elevators stuff ...
Thank you
Amazing! Thank you very, very, much!
Thank you so much for sharing your love of a great one from one of the greatest years in music. This interrupts my acute obsession with Francoise Hardy, who also released a remarkable album that year, which of course is much better in mono. But this does indeed give comfort, and I hope you feel good to share it as well.
prof u make my heart siiiing, thank u!!
Well, today I thought "It's ages since I had a look at profstoned's site, wonder if there's anything new?" - that was good timing! Huge thanks are due for all the outstanding work you have done (and continue to do), and for the generosity of sharing the fruits of your passion & expertise.
Prof, many thanks for all your great shares, much appreciated.
Dubley
Many thanks prof!

Sounds great! Thanks for posting, Professor. Mono rules!!!
Greetings from sunny (but locked down) Scotland.Trapped at home with music as a saviour. Your efforts are most appreciated. Take care & stay safe.TR
Thanks Prof!!
This sounds wonderful, thank you and stay safe my friend!
Thanks for posting! Great sounding transfer. Much clearer than the CD version I bought some years back.
James
Thanks for this.
thanks for all your hard work the sound is fantastic
Thanks for your efforts, excellent rip.
Oh, that's just perfect - thank you so much for your effort, really appreciated
Thank you so much for this rip Prof, really looking forward to having a proper listen to it
all the best from Aberdeen, Scotland
Thank you very much! would you consider doing "Easter Everywhere" in Mono? Good Vibrations!
Sure! Send me a M- copy please. Thx.
Great! Thank you Prof.
Sounds great! Thanks!
Hey Prof! Thanks indeed for these recent updates! This makes my day. I appreciate this so much.
Oh, this Rip is sooo gorgeous! Love your work, Prof!
I went and re-did it from scratch. There was too much distortion on v1.0. This new version is much cleaner with the same sound quality as v1.0.
Thank You Sir!
thanks a lot, dear Prof :)
I really enjoy your work, Prof.! Thanks a lot for this labour of love.
Thank you for the rework
thanx for the upgrade.
is there any problem with the 24/96 file or it is my fault?
16/44 seems to work fine.
I just downloaded 24/96 and tested. It's you.
thanks for the new rip
Thanks, excellent stuff!
You sir are a champ - thank you for taking on board the comments re. distortion (many wouldn't have the humility...) and then going to the trouble of making a new rip for us
Thanks! Best version I've ever heard of this album! Much appreciated!
Prof -
A very, very belated thanks to you. Your generosity in sharing your hard work is much appreciated. Your skills in transfers, mastering and collecting information have greatly enriched my audio collection. I've been a fan of yours for years, via your remaster of the Who LP "Who Is This?" (live in Germany 1972). Though I actually own the LP, I'd rather listen to your remaster! I also follow you on SHF. Again, sorry I haven't thanked you sooner. Your most recent batch of titles has brought much joy in trying times. Please consider continuing your work, if possible...many of us eagerly await any new posts from you. Take care, and THANKS, my friend...
Jon H.
Thanks so very much...this sounds great!!
I bow in your general direction for your dedication and taste. Many thanks, friend.
Another thank you from Scotland. I'm pleased you decided to make a few more posts after the 'final one'! Best wishes.
Amazing audio again for this absolute must have...sounds as good as my original VG copy of this mono mix, minus the annoying ticks and clicks of course! THANK YOU!!!
Many thanks professor!
Your striving for perfection is a noble trait, Sir. Thanks Prof !!!!
Thank you. Read nothing but great things about this.
The sound is amazing! Thank you prof!
Thank you Professor
Hi, I am able to download the RAR files to my Mac but the password does not help with opening them. It just says "Downloads/13_PS_LR.rar is not RAR archive
No files to extract"
Any advice on what I am doing wrong? Thanks very much for doing all this work.
I should add that after I type in the password and press enter, nothing happens, and nothing happens after I click on "extract" as well.
Great record!, Thanks very much.
Very nice indeed Prof
Many thanks
AA
Re:fondofellipses
You need to use an up to date rar extractor.
Is there a stereo version post planned for the future?
...this was great!
Thanks, Prof!
Thanks!
I thought I had commented but I can't find it ... thank you very much! your rips are great! I also have a small blog and I'd like to have a judgment on: https://bordeldorock.blogspot.com/2018/12/13th-floor-elevators-psychedelic-sounds.html - thanks!
Thank you so much for doing this.
Great. Thank you!
Amazing work, Prof. This sounds beautiful. Are you going to consider doing the mono Easter Everywhere and Bull Of The Woods? THANK YOU VERY MUCH.
This sounds fantastic. Thank you so much
This is truly exciting! Thank you!
Ta, again!
Hey Prof, just found your site, I have had a look around at the delights and I am psyched :)
Many thanks
Thank you Prof, what a great service you are doing. Appreciate it very much!
Thanks for this. I've been loving my original stereo pressing for years but have never transferred to digital.
Thank you!
Thanks, Prof!
A labor of love! Thanks for the groove!
Thanks! Sounds great!
Thank you!
