Last night, while listening to the radio (92.9 HD3 channel), Al Stewart's Year of the Cat came on. The piano intro on that track is very clearly in only one channel and what I never heard before is that the radio intro was in the opposite channel compared to the version I have on Spotify. I ended up double checking all of my component connections and after verifying they were correct, checked some other Spotify tracks against reliable sources (CD/LP) and verified they were also correctly positioned.
Since I do not have an original source for Year of the Cat (CD or LP) I cannot be sure if it's the Spotify or radio version that I heard playing incorrectly. I am probably being anal, but can anyone verify the channel of the piano intro? My Spotify version starts with the piano in the left channel. The radio had it in the right. For all I know all of the radio tunes may be reversed and they may need a note informing them of the channel reversal, or maybe Spotify needs to be informed.
