Based on the overwhelming response to Warner/Rhino's brilliant Chicago and Doobie Brothers QUADIO BD~A boxsets coupled with increasingly high profile SURROUND releases from The Beatles, The Stones and other high profile artists and Dutton Vocalions foray into QUAD SACD titles from the SONY/RCA/UMG catalogues, SURROUND SOUND is HERE TO STAY.
After almost 50 years fermenting in musty vaults, those 1970 QUAD titles have a new life and new audiences with heretofore unheard SUPERIOR Digital Remastering from those 15/30 ips analogue masters in sonics never before heard with the exception of those 70's remix engineers who were privy to their inception.
Warners has a deep catalogue of exceptional QUAD masters, some probably NEVER released in ANY FORMAT and based on their stellar track record with only a handful of QUAD releases, we, at QQ Forum feel the time has come to LIBERATE THEM FROM THEIR NASCENT MOORINGS.
Hopefully, it won't preclude initiation into the Rock 'n Roll Hall of Fame for prior W/E/A artists with QUAD masters to earn a freshly minted 192/24 BD~A release as there is certainly a renewed market for discrete SURROUND titles and even if you do continue to release the occasional box set, IMO, even sprinkling them with the occasional hi res Stereo Remaster would be most welcomed instead of just releasing them in the RBCD 16/44.1 format.
