The following articles come from sources that state the ' 75 soundtrack album of The Who's TOMMY are QS ENCODED.
There were a number of reports on this disc being encoded by a number of trade magazines in the audio world back in the mid 70's and I kept only a few of these reports, the most relevant for the most part.
There is controversy over whether this disc is indeed QS encoded, but there is no doubt the film was.
This matter is somewhat moot, however, as we now have it available in 5.1 discrete dvd, and bluray.fwiw I believe it to be matrixed, but not a very good transfer.
It could and should be better, but does tend to surprise one however ,when heard through a good QS decoder (vario-matrix).
