Suggestions for Audio Fidelity Multichannel SACD Releases

[fizzywiggs41]

Were the bottom three albums you have listed here definitely released in Quad? I looked on Discogs, but couldn't find any Quad listings for those last three.
Specifically concerning "Boys and Girls", I have said it before, but I think that would be an excellent title for UMe to release as an HFPA Blu-Ray since they now own that one and it's celebrating its 30th anniversary this year (plus it's a 5.1 title as opposed to Quad)

BTO-HEAD ON ( released as a Mercury/Phonogram Q8), GRASS ROOTS 16 GREATEST (QS LP, Q8).
The ZZ TOP-FANDANGO was announced in SCHWANN as an upcoming WEA release. (A Quad mix quite possibly exsists in the vault, as SCHWANN was pretty accurate when it came to Quad reporting.)

Are the BTO decent mixes?

BTO was in surround on dts CD.

I'm pretty sure ZZ Top was still on London at the time.

BTO was in surround on dts CD.

Not Fragile. I've got the dts CD and used to have the quad reel (very bad idea to have not kept that one).

Whoops, your correct cupboy.Was about the same time as the 12 or more WEA titles were announced by Schwann,I apologize.



Keenly,.........the 5 BTO quads are decent mixes in my opinion, musically I always liked the first disc, but I think I know you like your hard rock metal, correct? So all 5 are recommended by me, hard driving rock and roll in my estimation.So if that's the case, you should like em!
Also would't mind BLACK SABBATH-SABOTAGE (another Schwann announced title-WEA then, UMe now I believe).


And a title I always had on my want list, Japanese release cd-4:

JERRY LEE LEWIS/ALVIN LEE (TOGETHER? I think that's the title?) On Phillips/Phonogram........maybe Nick Perugini, or Quad Linda have it?
I found it elusive, like most Japanese quads.

SUNFIGHTER is now my number 1 pick! I am sure 99% of people on here would love it. http://www.amazon.com/Sunfighter-Paul-Kantner/dp/B000002X1R

Quad LP can be improved upon, as far as mastering goes, I am sure of it.

AF please try and have this title approved!

Somehow this one was under my radar. Nice pick! I'd definitely be in for this one.

Let's get to Worst Of Jefferson Airplane first, then go to the ancillaries.

 

[fizzywiggs41]

It would seem, to me anyway, that AF favour releasing BEST OF'S?

So it's a likely release as well as a great pick for WORST OF by JEFFERSON AIRPLANE.It surely has my vote.

Head On
Yes!!!!

 

[cupboy]

No hints?

Nope.....didn't think so

Best Of Mancini, Best Of Mancini Vol. 2

 

[cupboy]

Head On has the advantage of being out of print on CD currently (in the USA), so they'd sell even more of them than usual.

 

[LizardKing]

Pink Floyd Animals...thats my pick

 

[cupboy]

I'll go with your pick. Not that it will ever happen.

Strange, somehow we have 3 threads mixed in here now.




But all are relevant.

A PAGE FROM THE "JAPANESE CD-4 RELEASES" 1976.Showing the ALVIN LEE/JERRY LEE LEWIS title.Alvin Lee the guitar wizard of Ten Years After fame!
Pretty much a shot in the dark for A F to release this quad title, but one can dream.



And any of the bottom five titles pictured would be nice.PLANET WAVES for sure!

No, let's get Sunfighter first.

hmmmm I see Riding with the King is listed as coming soon on the AF site, as well as So What by Joe Walsh, but why not Surround for these? They both had mixes done...

I recently sold my Riding With the King dvd-audio. Doesn't go for much money. But yea, how strange. Maybe that's an error on the site.
