This is the exact cover
a bunch of nice sounding stuff. Nice that I'm finally able to actually listen to file music for the first time...

Let me know how you like it.   I thought it was great and really debated parting with it.

It is good,   it will go into the frequent rotation bin or record-to-r2r bin.  I ordered a new (to me) preamp (McCormack RLD-1) but did not pay attention to the mono thing, forgot.  I will add that feature to the next one - I still have owning a decent Mac preamp in my to-do list,  will make sure it has mono for this kind of recording.

The Trolls soundtrack on vinyl. Perhaps my most regrettable purchase and my daughter's favorite.

Have you taken your daughter with you to Record Store Day yet?   I had to spring for a Katy Perry picture disc, but it is a memory Gina will carry with her long after my carcass has rotted in the ground.

Pepe-Just about all of the MAC preamps have a mono switch.  The older ones have the entire assortment of mode functions
Mac stuff, Sony HDR-F1HD AM/FM/HD tuner, Denon DRS 810 cassette, Denon CDR-W1500 CD recorder, Music Hall MMF-9 w/B&O MMC2, B & O 4002 w/B & O 20 CL, Revox A-77

Not to a RSD, I have a hard enough time with crowds bringing her wouldn't help. She's been to Jerry's with me a few times. She shops by the cover, "this is good", "how bout this". Great covers, horrible content. The Attic is my current go to store, she hasn't been there yet because it's so cramped.

You should take her to The Exchange.   More "youth friendly".

How did you like it?   I went through a phase where I was tired of ELO, but now I listen to them and feel they hold up pretty well.

Will play a clip of the Zoom concert on the HT when you pop by Saturday - it is a pretty example of ELO at their best.

RCA brown label, Allen Zentz cut, sounds magnificent.   $4 well spent.
