There was a place back in the mists of time when the release of a new Quo album and tour was met with euphoric excitement. It’s hard to explain just how good these guys were live. Yeah I know it’s only boogie, but when you get 3000 people doing the Quo jive then it’s a powerful thing.
There are three absolute bangers on this album: the big hit single Caroline, Forty Five Hundred Times, and my favourite Roll Over Lay Down. Even Softer Ride with its country blues boogie is killer. Man, I do miss these days. So much fun.
If you’re feeling down and you want to put a smile on your face, then give this one a spin.
9/10 from The Grooveman.
