Rhino Quadios - Batch 7 - Speculation

[gvl_guy]

AFAIK, QL foraging rhino said that Gord’s Gold was never remixed

He also said they don't have the rights to Bark.

Only a dog could possibly have the rights to bark.

Trees dispute that (and are not fond of dogs).

This is my favorite post from you ever!

Awesome photo Jon, I have all that you have except 1 and mine are all open with hype sticker gone .

The one is CTA stand alone Quadio, I never knew that was a release, tell us the story on that one. I know I could look on Discogs but funner to hear from you.

If you're interested, I have a NM CTA up for grabs. PM me.

Sorry that will probably never happen, but... You are lucky that most classical music can be bought in near perfect condition. Generally for pretty reasonable prices, if you can locate them. I have a friend who is a big jazz connoisseur, and he buys near mint vinyl all the time in all of the quad formats.

Those Nonesuch quads are best heard on R2R tapes that rarely surface at reasonable prices. 'Tis a pity.

Maybe a Super Quadio - all of the Nonesuch quad albums (no need for the stereo mixes) on one music Blu-ray (for ~$60 since, IIRC, the Nonesuch quads were priced lower than the typical popular music quad album).

Or maybe four albums per disc anyway. Do two BluRay discs and cover eight albums. Like way down the line when all of the best pop and rock has been done.

Wondering if the two Souther, Hillman, Furay albums could be issed as a 2 fer. The first one reached #11, went gold and spawned a Top 30 single with Furay's "Falling In Love". The follow-up album broke the Top 40, but was not as successful. (Both did end up being mainstays of the cut-out bins). I have never heard the quad mix of either, so have no idea about how they sound. Being a fan of Buffalo Springfield and Poco, I was a big fan of Furay's vocals. (Oddly enough, my favorite Poco era is the 'fab four' era, after Richie left, and before Tim departed for the Eagles.)

I was told that two-fers can be done but it alters the current pricing structure of an individual Quadio disc. Additional publishing costs per song adds to the price. Mastering costs might also be a factor.

After 28 excellent pop and rock (and jazz) releases already, I don't see why classical fans should be asked to keep stepping to the back of the line. Not sure about raw numbers, but I'd be willing to bet that pound for pound, classical listeners already buy more physical product than devotees of other genres.

I’d like The MJQ - The Last Concert, but not if it is just audience and hall ambience back there in rear channels.

Herbie Mann - Push, Push, this needs to come out soon too.

Randy Newman - Sail Away, must be on the fast track to arrive huh.

Gordon Lightfoot and Seals and Crofts must both be under consideration now that we have a few repeat artists in the series.

And I’ll take another “previously unissued” quad like Rod Stewart.

So four out of these six would start the year out right, and satisfy me for at least 60 days.

Yes I’m afraid classical sales are and have been in a deep slump for the last decade. I didn’t ask for that reality. I’d like to see and have already stated as much - Darrius Mulhaud’s “La création du monde“, and Edgard Varese from Nonsuch. We would be lucky to get them anytime at all.

My (classical) Super Quadio proposal - easier packaging, easier promotion, easier shipping.

If there's too much album info for a SJB booklet, make a pdf available with extensive "liner" notes for each album (on Rhino.com).


Although I'm not a classical music fan, I'd buy a multi-album Quadio single disc to get both Percussion Music and the William Bolcom Piano Music QuadraDisc mixes (the only classical quad albums I have) at the highest fidelity, especially the Percussion Music album.
