Has anybody asked for Jim Croce Quads?
Has anybody asked for Jim Croce Quads?
Yes. I'm pretty sure it's been brought up to AF and they are/were checking it out.
And the tapes are privately owned/controlled which can make it a cinch to license. The rights reverted from the producers to estate some years ago.
A two-fer in quad would seem obvious, yet an expanded "Greatest Hits" would be just as tasty in quad.
Two-fer? There's Four Jim Croce Quads! You Don't Mess around with Jim, I Got a Name, Life & Times and Greatest Hits (Photographs/Memories) Also, the mixes that appear on the GH do differ slightly from the same cuts appearing on the albums proper.
.
We could only hope that Ingrid and A.J. have the Quad masters in their possession. I have no doubt that they'd want to get Jim's music out and into the spotlight once again.
I'm not a huge fan really, but I admit, I would buy anything Quad of his they want to sell me. I mean, he's a good songwriter....Time In A Bottle would sound excellent....Never Liked that Leroy Brown stuff....
The production is stellar on those albums!!!
I have a copy of "Life and Times" cut at The Master Lab in LA and it's a knockout cut. I also have an ABC in-house cut of one of the other LPs, and it sounds spectacular. So these albums when mastered right can really jump outta the speakers at you. You add quad, and those hit songs will sell themselves.
For Croce, I want two 2-fers, two studio albums on one, and the Greatest Hits, plus another studio album on the other.Maybe we could just get his Greatest Hits in Quad...that would be stellar...well, and whatever others you guys want.
Well, the entire JC discography would fit comfortably into 2 discs, so let's push for "L'Integrale" (french style...). Done once and for all, with everything.
I cant be 100% sure of this but I recall having a Q8 of the greatest hits release back in the day and being pretty disappointed in the mix. Not discrete. Mostly ambience.
