It must have been frustrating for them to hear the pristine stereo and then the mono recording. Does anyone know whether any composers mentioned this at the time?

Yeah, I am sure they have not beend satified with recordings in the early days of sound… It must have been a revelation when Stereo was invented. When was that actually? In the 40s somewhere and really got through during the 50s, right? I mean up to the 60s it was still common to release mono records.
