Al Stewart: Year Of The Cat 
Huh? What is that? Don't think I've ever heard about it.
Love is the answer, "you heard it before".
And We will hear it again and again . . . when will We listen?
As I await my delivery, teed up Johnny Winter's delightful quad version of Lennon's Rock & Roll People. Side One, Track One, John Dawson Winter III, 1974.
Hidden track on the Mind Games box, per Uncut:
"Written in 1970 and eventually given to Johnny Winter, this was recorded during the Mind Games sessions, great guitar & piano..."

Now this is huge info Clement. I am a huge Johnny Winter and John Lennon fan and never new this.
I just added to my Apple library for a listen.
Can you also buy a digital version of this, CD I am sure, but DVD-A or anything?
This is such a great album! I like this a bit better than XXL that followed - mostly for the all instrumental playlist. Though tunes like Hunting Rabbits and Jazz Police make it hard to ignore XXL. Both a notable Silverline exceptions to the rule. Putting XXL on now…
Per discogs, only vinyl & quad 8-track.
I'm grateful for the smattering of quad that appeared on Apple Music in "Dolby Audio" quad, but seems it quickly became a dead end.

tbh i think maybe Apple's Dolby Audio thing pretty much ended when the labels who were on board with it and/or 360 Reality Audio felt they had exhausted their archives already?
which was far from the case, as we know.. although it does seem like Sony in particular chose to release "everything" they were potentially aware of on the streaming platforms in those formats, virtually in one fell swoop (well.. 2 or 3 swoops!
) or that was in Surround and they could readily lay their hands on!? 
Sony even unceremoniously dumped a number of previously unreleased RCA and CBS Quad mixes in the process, quite unbelievable really!
that these previously unreleased Quads have largely been overlooked, even on this fabulous forum is a shame but there's just been such a glut of new Surround music the last few years and a lot of the streaming fodder was issued with little to no fanfare as we know, so in a way it's forgivable/understandable!
also, i feel time (and/or timing?) and money may have played a big part, perhaps Sony had to re-release a number of the old Quads one way or another right there and then for copyright reasons etc., or there were cash incentives from Dolby at that moment in time?
sorry to be a quizzing pedant!
is it a proper pressed disc by any chance, as opposed to BD-R burnt offerings?

No U.S. release, so that's likely why it's unfamiliar. It's roughly equivalent to The Essential Video Collection:
