I've been wondering that forever.....mine is the same, it almost sounds like a radio edit, the long instrumental intro is missing for sure.
My track 4 is 3:38.

lots of albums have incorrectly listed timing , due to a longer or short version(s) being but on a particuler pressing but not changing the label art to reflect that.

Its 3:41 on this flac conversion, but it only came with photo of front cover
Just looked at Tidal and playing now Track 4 is 5:48 on Tidal.

This is likely the same one I have as well.

Wouldn't be the first time a different version of a track ended up on the quad version of an album (e.g. Chicago, Jefferson Airplane). My copy is from a Q8 source according to the file that came with it.
That must be the regular stereo version.
The Sony 360 version on Tidal below (which I assume is just an upmix of the Quad) is 3:37.

It's possible that the end of the song was truncated to balance out the playing time of the two sides of the Q8, but it is kind of unusual that they didn't bother putting the excised bit at the beginning of side 2. There are a bunch of Columbia Q8's like that, where a song fades out at the end of side 1 and fades back in at the beginning of side 2 - that 16 minute jam on the Santana & Alice Coltrane Q8 has about 14 minutes on side 1 and 2 minutes on side 2, and I think 'Free Form Funkafide Filth' from the Santana/Buddy Miles Live! disc is similarly split on the Q8.
Whatever the case is, I think it puts to rest any notions that Columbia was doing separate SQ and discrete mixes, as both the Q8 and SQ LP being the same running length suggests that both masters were derived from the same mixing session as there's no reason they couldn't have put the full-length version on the SQ LP.

I’d love to hear those Aerosmith Quads. We’re they well done? I have Toys in the Attic in 5.1, I think it’s a SACD. would great to see that on Apple Music as well in surround.
They are great. Maybe it’s just me, but I personally think Get Your Wings is the best of the bunch. It’s one of the better quad mixes in general, IMO.yes they're great!hopefully coming to Apple Music before too long!
Oh man, I’ve got to have this. I grew up in Boston and used to see this band before they got big. I’d love to hear Get Your Wings in quad. It’s probably my favorite of theirs.
The only problem with Get Your Wings in quad is they used an edited-down version of "Woman Of The World" (presumably to balance out the program lengths on the Q8 tape?). Rocks is my favorite, the surround effect on "Back In The Saddle" with the horses galloping around the room is great.
I've wanted to hear the quad mix of Rocks for a really long time. Hope it's not too long now.
