Beatles Stereo on Capitol Records

[John Bolduc]

I noticed listening to a local FM (mono) station that has a few older
Beatles songs (Capitol Record era) in their rotation that it sounds like
only half the audio is there. Some songs it's 90 percent instrumental with
the lyrics/singing sounding like an echo. It looks like they are only
picking up one of the channels (left or right??). 

Is there a term for the type of stereo separation they were using on those
 records?

Did you need a special HI-FI or needle/cartridge to play back non-mono
compatible records?
