Hip-O Select?
Hip-O Select has put out a lot of great albums but has anyone noticed that they are vinyl rips?

Very cool find! Even impressing the long timers!

Zabble, thanks for posting that label! I've never, ever seen an ABC Quad single. They can't have issued very many of those.
The only 7" ABC Quads I've ever seen, in fact, were the jukebox Little Lp EPs, of which I have a short handful. But those were all tracks culled from the released Lps.
I will transfer these tracks from vinyl and post the results
I just ordered a copy of "A Year In Your Ear", I'm anxious to hear the two Sansui encoded tracks. For some reason this thread had just reentered my head, I checked Discogs and found a copy. This could of should of been the start of ABD/Dunhill releasing everything in a compatible quad formate, but to no avail. There is still one copy left but the sell wants $199.50 for it!I recently came upon an ABC/Dunhill promo sampler issued to radio as a "Christmas Gift" in December of 1971. Two songs on each side are marked with an asterisk, and at the bottom, a note explains that those songs are "Sansui Encoded".
One of these songs is "Daisy Mae," a cut from Hamilton, Joe Frank & Reynolds' debut Lp.
The other is Tommy Roe's version of "Stagger Lee", which was on the 1971 album "Beginnings" as well as the "16 Greatest Hits" comp.
Has anyone ever heard about either of these artists having a shelved Quad mix done? Were there ABC quads that never got released?

Ifg it wasn't for your new posting I would had never stumbled upon this thread . Short but interesting reading. I can not find that disc with search on Discogs. Cool purchase. If the remaining one is $200 may I ask how much you spent for years?I just ordered a copy of "A Year In Your Ear", I'm anxious to hear the two Sansui encoded tracks.

And looking forward to hear how you like it!
MCA had a little fire a few years back and they lost a little bit more than some old films.
