I just counted, I have 91 multi-channel releases on my shelf that I've purchased over the years. Several of those contain more than 1 actual title (Mac Davis is 1 release, but has several titles)
Wow!
Wow!
How many titles from Dutton Vocalion?

Are those all D-V surround titles?

53 (multichannel) for me plus one on vinyl.
Exactly 73 multi D-V SACD sets, total D-V multi titles likely about 100. 
️ approx 2 dozen D-V CD sets.

I have yet to place an order from D-V. I'm mainly a rock guy (vintage country rock to thrash and everything in between) but these multi-release SACDs for bargain prices make me want to experiment with other genres. Can amy of you rockers recommend some titles that have you coming back for multiple listens?
The Return To Forever. The Earth Wind and Fire. Those are titles with really impressive 4.0 surround. Great music too. As a rock fan I had no problem with them in any way. They sound so good and the production of the music holds up today. I’m not so fond of all of DV’s picks for rock and pop releases. But these really thrill. The Poco gets a lot of nods for quality material and quad mix. Best of the Guess Who Vol. 2 is great imo. Love their later hits. So there’s a few recommendations
Worth considering Rick Derringer (two albums in 4.0) and Argent (In Deep is in 4.0 and the other two on the SACD are stereo). You may already know one of the Argent songs but by another famous band! And further from country rock perhaps you might try Carlos Santana & Alice Coltrane. By the way does vintage country rock include Poco - DV have a two album SACD? (Whoops, just realised that our friend quicksrt mentioned Poco before. Must learn to read everything posted first!)

Argent, Mott, Derringer & Nugent are more great rock titles.
There are great classical titles, many of which I bought. I'll leave those for another time...

I only order from DV twice a year or 8 months from the prior order. But I get 6 to 8 discs per order.
Looking forward to the next batch or rock, pop, R&B, or some soul-jazz would be cool. Fusion that is essential sure.
I’d love to place a big order. Take my money DV, just keep going into rock titles, the harder the better, the stonier the better yet.

..and when you've played that little lot to death (!) 
these also have some great Surround music on them 
my personal picks of this lot would be the 2 Donald Byrd Quads "Black Byrd" & "Street Lady", Charlie Rich's "Behind Closed Doors" & "Every Time You Touch Me I Get High", the Mac Davis 5-fer (still can't believe they did this!!
), Michel Legrand's "Twenty Songs Of The Century", The Raiders 2-fer, Buddy Miles Express & Buddy Miles with Santana, Don Sebesky's "Giant Box" and Grover Washington, Jr.'s "Soul Box".

Art Garfunkel "Breakaway" gets top rating for a mellow pop rock vocal album in quad.

PILES, PILES AND PILES and IMO, ALL are mastered to perfection!
Try a few classical titles while you’re experimenting. There are a number of aggressively mixed titles that appeal to (former) rock-only enthusiasts.
