RHINO QUADIO batch #6 - Speculation Extravaganza!

[quicksrt]

I guess Rod Stewart was still a rocker at the time of Atlantic Crossing

While James Taylor never ever was!

I'm OK giving Rhino ( Foraging - Steve) a wide spectrum

And I’m OK if Spectrum is considered rock... even if “jazz-rock”.

Thanks for article, was wondering why no Blows Against The Empire, looked it up, was a RCA release not GRUNT, DAM.

Blows is a great album and would make a great surround release.

Hey, @ForagingRhino, some suggestions from the Department of Further Clues:

• What labels originally issued these quads?
• Have any been reissued?
• The catalog numbers added equal: "xxxxx"
• The total band members from the 4 releases equal: "xx"
• An unusual bit of trivia regarding one of the artists or releases?
• The letters of the band names (or album titles) can be used to make an anagram which says: "_________......."

yes, it BLOWS alright, but just not in the cards for Rhino AFAIK. I am definitely in that camp of wanting that one in surround though, as you can see what my Air Force barracks' wall looked like in black-light paint circa mid 1970's at SAC Headquarters Omaha. The barracks commander was not amused ... and we were doing Top Secret work for the CIA

I'm OK giving Rhino ( Foraging - Steve) a wide spectrum for the description of genre as "Rockers"; it's all good stuff IMO

These are all like little long lost diamonds that have washed up on a beach!

Yes, they are like the lost sea scrolls of popular music 1971 - 1976.
I've thought of these quad mixed masters as Sleeping Beauties waiting to be awoken from deep sleep.

A time killing exercise - anyone compared the actual colors of the Quadio packaging to the associated CD-4/QuadraDisc jacket colors?
