@Long_live_rock_n_roll Great range of styles on this album, despite what people say about Quo. I’d say if you took the branding off it and let a music snob listen to it without saying who the artist is, you’d get a very different reaction than you’d normally get by saying “you should check out this Quo album”. Such a shame that 2 of the original members have now passed away without getting the recognition they deserved. I don’t think Rossi is doing anything to help the legacy
@TheWayneGibbons many folk have just listened to the chart material without giving the albums a second thought,,,, the late 60s 70s stuff is massively underatted, Yep, Rossi and his ego took its toll on the band 👍🥁🎸🎸🎸
