Dutton are also releasing another Charles Gerhardt album on Hybrid Quadraphonic SACD: Casablanca: Classic Film Scores For Humphrey Bogart (1974), as well as the original cast recordings for Company (1970) and A Chorus Line (1975) amongst other August 2020 releases:
Thanks for the alert. I'm so glad they haven't stopped their Charles Gerhardt program. I was afraid the budget set of Gerhardt discs would have killed it.
To the best of my knowledge, this is the first of the Dutton Hybrid Quad SACD releases in the RCA series that was not originally released on a quadraphonic LP. It was instead released in quad on an 8-track tape (that's the quad catalog number shown in the listing in the first post).
