R&B I am hoping Grahm central station. It is a super quad fun mix. there are 2 quads, and one is better than the other, I am at work so i can't see my collection to see which one was the better. Heres hoping. David Gates would be fantastic. Gordy & Seals & Crofts are my next hopefuls. But there are a lot to good ones mentioned by others here.
4 More Quadio titles coming in October!

Help Support QuadraphonicQuad:
The Eagles keep getting mentioned and I'd LOVE to see One of These Nights but I don't think it qualifies as 'soft rock'. This wave is looking like a pass for me if the 'singer/songwriter' isn't Joni, and given all her current releases I'm not too hopeful. My guess is 'singer/songwriter' will be JT or Gord and 'soft rock' will be Bread. If so, hopefully DV will fulfill my rock needs until wave 3 rolls out 
the later Graham Central Station Quad, "Ain't No 'Bout A-Doubt-It" from 1975 is fantastic!
dizzying pans abound in "The Jam", watery effects sploosh and woosh over you in "I Can't Stand The Rain", it's an absolute hoot!! 
I wouldn’t mind the Deaf School, but it’s such a little known outlier, doubtful Rhino will ever get to it. But it is a bit quirky, so I like it!gladly, Mister E.!
my personal favourites from a Surround Sound perspective are;
Gil Evans "Svengali",
Herbie Mann "Reggae",
Charles Mingus "Mingus Moves",
Donny Hathaway "Extension Of A Man",
Spinners (any of their 3 Quads are excellent sound quality and Surround mixes but the S/T is my favourite, one of the all-time Classic Quads with a killer mix by Thom Bell himself),
Average White Band "AWB",
Graham Central Station "Ain't No Bout-A-Doubt It",
David Gates "First",
Gordon Lightfoot "Sundown",
James Taylor "Gorilla",
Sergio Mendes S/T (seriously overlooked imho),
America "Holiday",
Deaf School "2nd Honeymoon",
Bette Midler "Divine Miss M.",
Stardrive featuring Robert Mason "Intergalactic Trot".
You reminded me that I'd seen them a couple of times circa 1975-77! and it seems they are till gigging!! Deaf School Music Band
oh i doubt it's even on the horizon Mister P., there's loads more they are no doubt looking to remaster way before that one!
it's such a lovely kooky album, i think possibly the only example of Art Rock in studio Quad form (?) and the mix is way more Surround-y and more active than i was expecting, with lots of panning and cool use of placement in the Surround soundfielddddd to grrreat efffffectttt.!
My guess,
Soft Rock - Seals and Crofts
Singer/Songwriter - Gordon Lightfoot
R&B - Spinners
Jazz - Charlie Mingus
Soft Rock - Seals and Crofts
Singer/Songwriter - Gordon Lightfoot
R&B - Spinners
Jazz - Charlie Mingus
these would all be great choices!
i'm guessing "Diamond Girl" (or maybe "Summer Breeze"?) would be the first choice among the Seals & Crofts Quads? 
of the two Gordon Lightfoot Quads "Sundown" is the biggy, such a great album and the one i'd love to see on Quadio Blu-ray. tbh really any of the 3 x Spinners Quads would be just wonderful, i'd love Rhino to do all of them in time, if possible!
In the past year or so buying things like Tears for Fears, xPropaganda and XTC (not the typical music for a person who leans toward 70s/80s rock) and actually liked them, I’ve accepted that nothing is off the table any more as a potential purchase.
I do like some jazz, so that feels like the most likely purchase, whatever the title is. I’ve got a fair amount of soft rock in my library, too, so that’s another that could be an easy buy. Singer/Songwriter probably falls into third place as far as interest with R&B behind that and I might be a little more discerning about those two.
While my excitement level of the genres is a bit lower than the first batch, I’m still looking forward to seeing what these will be and perhaps taking a chance on something I ignored when it originally came out.

Wow I do like that Def School clip I hear Sparks in that song. Would definitely take that quad....
Ha, that's what I thought also
ah well then a Quadio rendering would sell at least 3 copies!Ha, that's what I thought also
Wow! I've never heard of them before. Fun little tune and I definitely hear the Sparks influence.Ha, that's what I thought also
The Jefferson Airplane quads are my dream. I won't turn down Tuna, though, hot or otherwise 8').
Aretha, ZZ Top, and anything Jazz would make my day......But Iam always willing to listen to new (to me) music anytime.
So I will gladly buy all 4 of the new upcoming releases, mainly to make it profitable for Rhino, so they will continue with new Quadio releases

If I already have a title on LP, I'll probably acquire the blu-ray.
If I don't already have a title on LP, I'll probably acquire the blu-ray.
If I don't already have a title on LP, I'll probably acquire the blu-ray.
Again, there is just no scenario I can think of that will stop me from buying all 4 October releases.
I’m in for all four regardless… keep ‘em coming!
