To save Clement shame, I was the one who said it. But heck, a lot of the surround market is going to us old folk (try to get a Gen Z to listen to Paul Mariat

Apologies, Halbroome, I'll edit it. Thanks for the correction...
I thought it would be good because a) it’s rare and b) it goes for big money. I used to have it when quad was happening but of course it hit the dust long ago. I really like the album.

I have Remember the Future on SACD and it has the quad mix. Goes for big $$ these days though

Remember the Future could be re- done much better by Mr. Dutton. The current SACD was "manipulated into 5.1 and de-noised"
I hate it when they do this.
I would much rather hear the original "Quad" version.
Steely Dan with liner notes by @steelydave. Now how cool would that be!
Jonathan, thanks for the link! There are also a few words in that thread from Monsieurs Urban(Jon Urban, a Quad Legend and not an urban legend!) and Geller.

How about a Dutton Vocalion T shirt. I'd buy one.

Did Curtis Mayfield 1972 Roots LP come out in Quadraphonic Mix LP?
Be great if that could come out on SACD by the Great Dutton Gentleman.

it came out on Quad 8-track tape only, no Quad LP release afaik.
i think the Curtom stuff may be controlled by the estate now, they may be up for it, maybe not.
I think it sounds great. The live tracks are fine, IMO. Not just ambience in the rears. and the studio tracks are outstanding. More than just "completist" to get this one. I think it's essential.Speaking of Earth, Wind, and Fire, I have the Audio Fidelities -- and in the post, the DVs
Any comments on the quality of that one? As a completist, I feel the itch. . . .
And yes, the AF titles are good too. I didn't balk at all at paying ~$30 each for those. And, as much as I like those albums, they were clearly just warm-ups for EWF hitting their stride with the next 5.
If only "All n All" and "I Am" had been given the 5.1 treatment along with "Gratitude"...
Oh well... having the 5 that we do have now is tremendous!
Unlikely, as it was not released in quad back in the 1970s.
This one 
is way up there, near the Tops for me!
