I recently ran across a Discogs listing for a Quad Q8 of the Righteous Bros. 1975 reunion album, "Give It To The People", Capitol Q8W-9201. Has anyone ever run across this? How does it sound? Must be a pretty rare bird!
Unfortunately for you, the Righteous Lp sold fair if not spectacularly, while the Roots Lp sank with nary a trace. And yes, it would have made a good quad title if well mixed; very underrated.
Don't remember if I did a poll for this one or not. If the latter should get that done....

Well, Ok, nobody else but you and me...
As to the Righteous album, I always hated "Rock and Roll Heaven," which I found to be an absurdly idiotic, plodding thing. Besides, the notion of Jim Morrison in heaven, the man himself would have scoffed at that, and the 'one big show' of dead people singing was a bad idea. Of course it became a bigger hit than "Dream On" which I thought was the best of the singles released from the album.
Safe to say the Grass Roots--or someone--took better care of their multis than, say, Three Dog Night or their label...I mean, what happened to the multi--let alone a stereo mix--for "Shambala"?!? Did they mail the bugger to the North Pole, or the wrong label? There's a mystery beyond understanding....
