Simply random stuff

This thread is not "random" enough anymore, it's become a reminiscence of past shopping experiences and locations. In an effort to get back on topic here is a photo of Gnome Chomsky:

Which randomly made me think of Giorgio Gomelsky who produced Gong's 1973 album "Angel's Egg"

I was randomly wondering if pine trees hate my house, and if my big poplar secretly hated my shop and used the hurricane as an excuse to launch herself upon it.

Oddly, I suddenly have the urge to listen to this....

Guess this as good of a place as any, to ask a burning question I have......
Since I only have a 70's, 4 channel surround system. What am I missing with playing Atmos or even a 5.1 tracks? Or are the additional tracks blended into 4 with my Sansui? Am I wasting $$ buying bluray audio? Listening to my Rhino Chicago bluray now, and it sounds excellent, but I just keep wondering...

Iam like RIP Van Winkle, as I've missed the last 45yrs of surround music improvements and everything is confusing as......well you know

Thanks for the replies, but I should have been clearer with my question.
I have a refurbished Sansui 9001 being fed by an Oppo 105. Iam stuck with 4 channels.
So buying Dolby Atmos, 5.1 bluray discs, etc, am I missing music or is it just blended into my 4 channels? Iam sure 8, 9, or 10+ channels is awesome, but Iam happy with what I got with no plans for upgrading
Sitting on the sofa looking/listening at that Sansui takes me back to when I first bought it in the 70's
Sweet musical memories
