Love this. Btw, stereo/stereophonic recording came out in the 1930s, so there was panning since then, although they did have the first 2-channel audio in 1881 according to wikipedia. Stereo sound became popular for vinyl records in the late 1950s. In the 1940s there was stereo tape. Radio had is in the 1920s and then it became popular again in the 1950s. If a bunch of old broadway cast recordings had panning, I would bet it was just a common stylistic thing for those, to make it sound more like you are in the audience of a real show. The other thing is there's remastering that is often done for digital versions of albums. I know because people often complain about classic albums like Dark Side of the Moon, etc. having bad remasters, lol.
