4 more Quadio titles coming in January 2024! (Titles Announced)

[omnipotent1]

Eh..I'll pass on all four
Here's hoping the next batch has something I'll like!

 

[djstephan]

Excited about and will be getting all four again..! Great job Steve and Co and keep them coming..

Just scrolling through QQ with breakfast.......I am a naturally calm person and usually greet these Quadio announcements with a smile but I literally punched the air when I saw AWB in the stack Foraging Rhino revealed after the initial tease photo. I've had the CD-4 of this album forever and have seen them three times over the years plus going to see them again at the end of April. Brilliant!

I don't know the other three so looking forward to these 'new' albums too to catch up with great music in superb quality. Very happy to have 'discovered' Charles Mingus in the last group. Thanks FR and your colleagues for this incredible re-release programme.

These quadio's do not seem to be very widely available in the EU, which seems odd as a lot of other Rhino titles are (e.g. Moondance). I think I read somewhere that initially they are only available D2C through the Rhino online store? Is this going to change? Most of the quadio's that have been released until now are a bit beyond my 'comfort zone' and while I would like to try some of them, shipping and importing them from the USA to the EU is very expensive (I think $40 for one bundle of four quadio's). And then I have read that multiple people did not even receive their order at all, which seems to even less of an incentive to buy these. Don't have a clue as to what the market is like in the EU and if it would be profitable to distribute through EU channels as well...

I surely hope they stick with new quad mixing of some Classic rock, etc. as they stated.

There may be a few false starts of albums that were destined to be quad mixed , and abandoned back in the mid 70's.

And I want this Quadio program to continue. There are some incredible albums that could use a Quad boost.

Just to name a few :
Alice Cooper Killer , Deep Purple In Rock , Jackson Browne The Pretender , Black Sabbath debut , are sure sellers in stereo , and certainly could use a quad mix . Previously overlooked potentials , and Rhino WEA have one hell of a catalogue of Rock Icons !

Deep Purple In Rock would be fantastic. (Perhaps they could persuade DP to also release SW's mix of Made In Japan. I bet he mixed the bonus tracks that were not on the orginal release as well.)

WAR!!!
what is it good for!?
absolutely Quadio!!

AWB?!
OMG!!!!

for anyone here who hasn't heard the Average White Band Quad already - get ready - it's one of the best Quads of all-time

oh and maaaannn... Svengali is going to absolutely knock your socks off, i remember demoing my old Quad setup with it years ago and those listening were aghast at what they were hearing, it's stunning

 

[fredblue]

You're over the moon, baby!

you betcha by golly wow i am..!!!!

 

[Old Quad Guy]

Definitely, when wanting “from the original Quad Masters” AWB and War were always at the top of the list for the past 20 years or more. The other two titles are undeniable classic Quad, and speak for themselves without a doubt.

shipping and importing them from the USA to the EU is very expensive (I think $40 for one bundle of four quadio's).

Been there done that, the first four quadio disc did sum between shipping and import taxes closer to 50$. For the second run i had to limit myself to 2 titles and came out 35$ for s&i.

 

[RatzNest666]

I agree! And I'm sure those sale numbers will affect the future releases. For example, if Billion Dollar Babies sold incredibly well and Mingus Moves was....eh, then I'm betting there's more of a chance for more rock-based stuff. Same for the Spinners vs something like J. Giels.

I'd also be curious about the people who aren't necessarily into quad/surround audio that are buying the Blu-rays specifically because of the fidelity or that they don't do vinyl. But you wouldn't know that by pure sales figures.

Mingus. I still haven’t listened to my copy. No thabks…

 

[RatzNest666]

Ghetto in quad = my dream. Thought I read the masters had been lost in the universal fire but given the RSD box and this upcoming release that doesn’t seem to (thankfully!) be the case.

 

[sunra]

I might try War or Gil Evans just because, but this batch is definitely not for me.

 

[GOS]

Another real fun set of Quads. Thanks Steve, for your hard work on these!

Different strokes for different folks, but the overall breadth & diversity of this historic re-issue series is becoming more apparent with this latest announcement.

Personally, this third offering is the most desirable so far.

History records the Gil Evans album won the 1973 Grammy for best jazz performance by a group.

Wonder when we can order? Not that I really need something else to toss my money at.

 

[beerking]

May all your dreams come true!!

Average White Band ....I put that in capitols in a previous post.

Man, I'm so happy

Will be in for all four, naturally.

I believe the date announced was January 19

I think Jan. 19th is the tentative date for ordering. Seems so far away to me. Long time to wait. But it's not really.

 

[fearandloath]

We'd all be surprised at what's being done.

Actually, And You Will Know Us By The Trail Of The Dead, put out a Quad release last year of their latest album Bleed Here Now.

 

[Bruce00]

Iam in for all 4, but I'll probably wear out the WAR disc before I break the seal on the rest
