Thanks Fex, much appreciated. This particular recording may not sound like ass, but my efforts prior to reading this thread most assuredly did. I could not get them to click and "sound like a proper record", as a friend of mine puts it. Nor did they translate well on other audio systems.
That's some ears you have - I hadn't noticed the piano tuning, but since you mentioned it I had a closer listen and you're right enough. I think it wasn't too noticeable/offsensive because of the reverb & modulation effects going on in the mix. The piano ("Wurly Stage"), synth bass and organ are all from SampleTank 3. Checking them all with reatune reveals that many of the piano notes are a little sharp. A small adjustment to the fine tuning of the instrument in the sample edit improved it.
