There's a Close To The Edge Quad..?!! :yikes
So I am now off to Amazon to put in my pre order.......great stuff.
If you find a UK pre-order could you please post & let us know?
I can't find one
That's 'cos it is not there. I have gone for the US version on bog standard shipping........
I've definitely never heard of a quad mix of EC Was Here before. I have a feeling that there are probably a lot of unreleased quad mixes from the dying years of quad (1975-1977) that we don't even know about. Obviously there's Mark Anderson's wonderful list of titles announced but never released, which holds a bunch of goodies. When Bob Vosgien, the guy who mastered the CTA Quadio release was posting here, he revealed a whole bunch of unreleased quad mixes that were in the Warner vaults, including:
Allman Brothers Band - Brothers and Sisters
Gentle Giant – Time To Kill
James Taylor - Sweet Baby James
Jethro Tull – MU Best Of
Jethro Tull – Minstrel In The Gallery
Yes - Close To The Edge
Maybe wishful thinking on my part, but I have a feeling that's just the tip of the iceberg too. Here's hoping that more of them find their way out, one way or another.

I think I'll order it...
I drooled on the 1975 Schwann record & tape catalog that included Yes - CTTE Q8. Was the existence of such a quad master confirmed somewhere?

Shame with all the amazing stuff on the upcoming CD+Blu-ray of Close to the Edge that they couldn't do a flat transfer of the quad tape, wonder if they know it exists and whether or not they tried to include it?
