One of my 3 all-time favorite Aerosmith Albums. The other two are Get Your Wings and Rocks. To me, the pinnacle of their catalog.

First Genesis album I bought as a kid. Still love listening to it end-to-end.
It's OK. You're not the only one.....
Never had those 2 Poco quads back in the day , can you ( or anyone for that matter) , enlighten me as to the music
and the quad mix ?
I blame "Deliverin " which I had( in quad ) and really did not enjoy......so any other quad Poco I just passed on.
I have the SQ LP of Deliverin' and yeah, it's a total mess sonically and quad-wise. I assume this probably had something to do with it being a live recording.
I haven't heard Cantamos, but Seven is an excellent album with an amazing quad mix. The music is sort of reminiscent of the early Eagles LPs or Buffalo Springfield...some really nice vocal harmonies.
The quad mix: varies per tune, but usually drums and bass upfront (tho there is this really cool drum solo in the first track where the drums are spread over all 4 channels), isolated rhythm guitars in each rear channel, isolated harmony vocals, etc.
Definitely worth checking out
well I'm surprised you missed my Poco Quad raving/ramblings, Fizzy!
I've been going on about Seven & Cantamos on here for the last couple of years. to me, they're both superb examples of Country Rock Quad and the surround mixes are top of the line. I expressed my disappointment on QQ at the result of decoding the Deliverin' SQ LP, to me it wasn't a patch on the Crazy Eyes DTS CD, or the Seven & Cantamos SQ LPs, mixwise or in terms of sound quality.. a tall order though perhaps, since all 3 of those are excellent!

Ok thanks for that .
I don’t mind an occasional Tom-Toms in the rear speakers but I much prefer a drum set up front in a surround mix.

Thanks Frederick's of London wood.
I am familiar with your raves as per Cantamos , but not Seven....so I apologize if I missed that review .
But that's partly due to my negative impression of Deliverin , not totally but if it said Poco I might not pay much attention.
Had that quad Deliverin early on and as far as all things quad that disc is the one and only turn off I encountered---and as a big quad collector back when..I was satisfied with dumping that disc very early on . May have been the very first quad title I tossed away with no regrets .
it would've been a crying shame if they'd only ever done Deliverin' in Quad.. however, unlike you who bought the Deliverin' SQ and it put you off getting the other Poco's, i came ass-backward to this hobby and got Crazy Eyes DTS first and was impressed! had the Deliverin' SQ been my first exposure to Poco in Quad, as it was yours, FW, I would've quite possibly abandoned them too! highest recommendation without reservation for Seven & Cantamos, they RAWK..!!
