JustDave's Notes:
- I got this from another collector who gave me all the info he had on the show which was not much, it was given to him the same way. As 6 unedited flac files, 2 cue sheet scans, some cover art and an audio checker text which said it was lossless.
- I decoded the files and indexed the tracks. After that I re-encoded them to FLAC Level 8

Known Flaws:
- Original rip lineage unknown but the tracks were cut on sector boundaries when checked prior to indexing tracks.
- Vinyl noise can clearly be heard, it looks like Westwood One used the BBC Transcription Albums to make this Two CD set.

Quadraphonic Digitization of Pop Special - BBC Pop Spectacular Featuring Genesis In Concert 137492-SQ from a DVDA downloaded from a Russian Torrent Tracker. For those who prefer MP3 encodings I used DVD Audio Extractor to rip a dual wave instead of a quad wave rip. This gets the same mix but only in stereo since MP3 can not be encoded to SQ-Quadraphonic only Flac works in this situation, unless you want a DVD audio encoding.

Okay that info is out of the way. Of course this Pre-FM SQ-Quadraphonic DVDA comes from our friends at The Genesis Archive. They of course find the best sources of well known shows. The DVD had not only the Quad Pre-FM but the audience recording in stereo but it was not something I thought I would listen to more than once. I didn't even finish it.. You will definitely enjoy this BBC Special Broadcast in your collection...I know I was real happy when I found this.

The SQ-Quadraphonic Flac set is huge so it is broken into 4 parts ALL parts unzip separately. The Stereo Flac Is in 2 Parts and will unzip separately as well.

I haven't seen encodings of the DVDAs I have anywhere else yet. I have acquired quite a few so be ready for a Quadraphonic Summer from Rosebud & I to you. Names like Bebop Deluxe, Premiata Forneria Marconi, Robin Trower, Santana, Barclay James Harvest, Pink Floyd and more so stay tuned!

Phil Spalding died February 5, 2023, he was 65.

With Yes, Asia and solo albums you would think that Steve Howe had enough to keep him busy in the 1980s. Turns out he didn't, neither did Steve Hackett after leaving Genesis for a solo career. So what do you do, get a drummer, bassist and singer you already have 2 fantastic guitarists. I remember listening to an interview with the 2 Steves when they said they wanted to find a singer that could give the band an American sound. To do that they hire the British former lead vocalist of Bronz (the guy could hit some freakishly high notes in his day!). I guess they meant American sounding in the Styx, Journey kinda vibe. They tapped Marillion's former drummer Jonathan Mover and bassist Phil Spalding who's Prog-Rock cred was from playing with Mike Oldfield. Of course Steve Howe missed his Asia & Yes mates so Geoff Downes was brought in to produce. I bought the album after hearing "When the Heart Rules the Mind" and I love it, still play it am listening to it right now as I type this. The group failed to make a follow up album and the members went back to their other jobs.

The show is great performance wise but the tape suffers from his, radio background noise and simple age. Now that said do not be afraid to check this show out, it's still very listenable and enjoyable!!
