Rhino is not licensing masters from other labels for the Quadio series.
Has has negotiated rights to artist's catalogs that have reverted to them (Chicago, certain Grunt recording artists etc.)
I'm with you on Mickey Newbury. That is a very emotionally powerful album. Haven't found the quad master and not sure we still control his Elektra catalog.
Okay fans, the next batch will be 2 Atlantics, 1 Reprise, 1 that originally came out on United Artists!
I'm taking note of the interest in Herbie Mann.....

I'm wondering about this 1971 on "Embryo Records" (Atlantic?), a little more funky IINM than some of his others and has great supporting players like:
Chuck Rainey, Donald "Duck" Dunn, Bernard Purdie, Richard Tee, Cornell Dupree, David Spinoza, Duane Allman, Richard Tee, Ralph McDonald and more...
Don't even recall if I've ever heard this Quad or how the mix is?

that 1 Reprise candidate really narrows it down to either Arlo Guthrie "Last Of The Brooklyn Cowboys", Maria Muldaur "Waitress In A Donut Shop", Randy Newman "Good Old Boys", or the other Gordon Lightfoot Quad "Cold On The Shoulder".. unless it's an unreleased Quad..!! 
United Artists has got to be WAR..!!
United Artists has got to be WAR..!!
OK, I'm guessing two of the titles:
Randy Newman's Good Old Boys would be the singer/songwriter on Reprise that was available on LP, Q8 & QR.
War's War Live is a United Artists title that is now being distributed by Rhino. That would be the R&B-ish that was only available as a Q8.
Gotta give some thought as to what the two Atlantic titles would be.
Newman is my #1 wish, so I am gleefully optimistic!

Atlantic Jazz-cat available on Q8 & LP. That's gonna be Duke Ellington New Orleans Suite, Herbie Mann's Reggae or Gil Evans Svengali.
Atlantic R&B-ish available on Q8 & LP. Average White Band's AWB. (Or The Wiz if we can call that R&B-ish).

Awww..great clues, Steve.
United Artists must be a War title ....and I hope it's "The World Is A Ghetto"
Reprise...I'm in for Randy Newman Good Old Boys or Gordon Lightfoot , but won't refuse Arlo Guthrie or Maria Muldaur.
2Atlantics ...could be any of these ;
Spinners Pick Of The Litter , Modern Jazz Quartet , Aretha Franklin , Gil Evans , Average White Band , J Geils Band , Bette Midler, Duke Ellington,
Herbie Mann, Roberta Flack.......or Atco's... Donny Hathaway .
As I assume they all fit into R&B ,Jazz category.
There are 2 Atlantic Soundtrack albums ...The Wiz and
Richard Harris The Profhet.
And one Q8 only with Mongo Santamaria, and Herbie Mann Push Push.

“The World Is A Ghetto” was the #1 album of 1973, according to Billboard. Quite a feat, considering all the great albums released that year.
I think the Mickey Newbury rights are now with a label called Saint Cecilia Knows ("Boutique reissue label curated and run by writer and journalist, Chris Campion. Home to music by Mickey Newbury, Jack Ruby, Scott Fagan and more." according to their twitter page) and have been for a dozen years or so, so that may account for the missing quad master. Probably a moot point but there may be two more unreleased Newbury quads - Heaven Help the Child was listed as an upcoming release in the June 23, 1973 issue of Record World, and I Came to Hear the Music was one of the many "announced but never released" titles that showed up in catalogs in 1974.
@ForagingRhino .... this is a little off-topic but..... A little while back you kindly checked for us to see if several announced but never released quad titles existed in the vaults. The scan below is from a WB Germany DVD-A release sheet from about twenty years ago. It lists several titles that were never released. Any chance you'd be able to check to see if 5.1 mixes were ever completed for the following:
Todd Rundgren - Something/Anything
Warren Zevon - Excitable Boy
Crosby, Stills & Nash [first album]
Little Feat - Waiting For Columbus
Jean-Luc Ponty - Cosmic Messanger
Completely understand if it's something you're not at liberty to discuss. Thanks!

Steve, can we narrow the one which originally came out on United Artists to:
The World is a Ghetto. United Artist USTQ-5652-QF (QR),
UA-DA178-H (Q8)
That would be AWESOME!

Wow would I love to hear a discrete 5.1 mix of Helplessly Hoping
That song is used a few times in the movie Annihilation and I remember thinking it sounded like the voices were spread all around the theater. Never picked up the Blu-Ray to find out though...Wow would I love to hear a discrete 5.1 mix of Helplessly Hoping
"The World Is A Ghetto" did not get a CD-4 pressing in Japan right?that 1 Reprise candidate really narrows it down to either Arlo Guthrie "Last Of The Brooklyn Cowboys", Maria Muldaur "Waitress In A Donut Shop", Randy Newman "Good Old Boys", or the other Gordon Lightfoot Quad "Cold On The Shoulder".. unless it's an unreleased Quad..!!
United Artists has got to be WAR..!!
Two massive hits, an audiophile favorite, was OOP for years (no LPs no CDs) building up a major demand for a time. It's called a "no-brainer" I think.
....so that's another clue. It's likely NOT Herbie Mann .....this time.
I'd be happy with this title anytime they want to serve it up. But we are looking at two artists featuring R&B. Funk, or Soul. One Jazz cat, and a Singer-Songwriter. Miss M just does not fit this time around.
