For R&B, I would guess Roberta Flack, Spinners or Aretha Franklin.
Hoping for Spinners! 🤞
And for soft rock I am guessing Bread or Seals & Crofts.
Seals & Crofts would be my first guess. Bread might be more likely, though.

For singer/songwriter, I'm hoping for a James Taylor title, but that seems like a long shot.

As for jazz, I don't know the Warner catalogue well enough to make a guess. I'm always happy to add more jazz to my collection, though, especially in multichannel.
 
I wanna speculate, but, while I am quite knowledgeable on lots of albums, I am not knowledgeable on the pool of albums that have been released on quad, and especially not knowledgeable on the respective record companies and who owns what.

Here's a comprehensive list of quads released by Warner associated labels.

Bring on the Spinners:LB but any R& B title is great
 
Hopefully the jazz album will have some yazz flute....

1 Jazz - I'd have to go with Mingus
1 R&B - Spinners has been very popular, but Donny Hathaway is quite the legend
1 Singer/Songwriter - Randy Newman, but Gordon Lightfoot is also likely
1 Soft Rock - Folks keep hammering for Seals and Crofts round these parts, But that missing quad America album is not out of the question is it.
 
Wanted to, but there are bigger Purple plans for afoot and they didn't want me to steal their thunder/distract the fan base.
Well, the US Quad MH is a digital MiA mix, Stormbringer can be improved a lot from the botched DTS release by just leaving the quad mix as it is, Burn was a scheduled release that never came, Made in Japan has a 5.1 mix done by SW that is sitting on a shelf, that leaves out In Rock, Fireball, Who do we thing we are and Come Taste the band with a unknown status of mch mixes. A boxset of the whole MKI-IV with mch mix for each would be a BIG seller.
 
Let the speculation begin!
the Jazz title could be either one of Duke Ellington, Gil Evans, Charlie Mingus, or The Modern Jazz Quartet..

R&B maybe either Donny Hathaway, Roberta Flack, Spinners, Average White Band, Graham Central Station, Aretha Franklin, or Dionne Warwick..

Singer/Songwriter has many possibilities, could be David Gates, Carly Simon, Randy Newman, Gordon Lightfoot, James Taylor, Joni Mitchell, Judy Collins, Arlo Guthrie, or Mickey Newbury..

Soft Rock may be The New Seekers, Eagles, Sergio Mendes, Seals & Crofts, America, Bread, Souther-Hillman-Furay Band..

edit: i'm guessing this batch won't have any more Alice Cooper or Jefferson Starship Quads, or WEA artists that don't fit into any of those categories, such as the James Gang, Bill Wyman, Deaf School, Stardrive Ft. Robert Mason, Herbie Mann, or Bette Midler!? 🤔

edit: wonder if there's any unreleased Quads lined up by Rhino for Quadio, maybe some Billy Cobham 🤞🤩
