music matters blue note reissues - better in mono?


I recently purchased some Music Matters blue note reissues. I've noticed some weird bass response on these records. Also, they seem to sound better in Mono than stereo.  I had a friend come over and listen and he said where is the bass? In some cases, its sounded like a got this weird resonance regardless of what turntable I used.  Has anyone else noticed this?

Yes, indeed I prefer to play these with a modern mono cartridge.
mono records which are remastered to stereo all have a complete different sonic fingerprint.
Normally a weak Bass, strong left and right separation with a sonic hole in the middle and some more.
And .... normally digitally remastered.
