Quad LP/Tape Poll Isley Brothers: The Heat Is On [SQ/Q8]

[fredblue]

definitely a remix of some sort and not an upmix, there's different vocal takes and parts etc going on and although the Surround effects maybe more subtle than most CBS Quads i'm convinced its the (seemingly so super scarce it may as well have been "previously unreleased"!) Quad.

oh and fwiw i reckon the side 2 tracks on Apple Music have the Fronts and Rears reversed

hmm.. can't easily rate it.. i've been longing to discover if the Quad even existed let alone hear it for soooo many years so when i finally did, was it everything i hoped for? no. am i happy to have finally heard it? yes. a placeholder "8" for now. maybe in a different form i may rate it higher.. the score's mainly for it even existing in Quad and that Quad being made available - with absolutely no fanfare! not even a footstep in the dark, i tell you! oops wrong album but you get me!
