Well Hello!
An album for the ages.
Has any number of great songs on it.
Some I am less keen on but nothing that isn’t very good at least.
It has some of the best rock music you will hear anywhere.
Caroline, Rollover and 4500x are brilliant. Time hasn’t dimmed the pleasure of listening to them.
The work of Rossi and Parfitt on this album shows what two guitars can do that a single guitar just can’t. It in someways s defines the band.
I could go on for some time but for now I will leave it there.

A thing of Beauty. A work of Genius. Faultless, Real, Perfect.
The definitive 'Black Album' YEARS before others! It's got Forty Five Hundred Times ffs!! For me, the Absolute pinnacle of Quo [Oh btw, Yes, I really like the album!]

I can never decide which is my favorite album, Hello or Quo. One of the ten best rock albums ever recorded.

Quo Status quo At their pinnacle. End of. Stating this doesn’t make it correct. It’s a great album though.

Fantastic album, 3rd favorite for me. And It's Better Now is the only draw-back, but still fantastic.

Summer of '83, a long warm one as a young teenager, I'd inherited a music centre, one that looked exactly like the very beast below, and played Hello! to death. A hugely nostalgic* album for me. * Nostalgia isn't a dirty word. Crevice is a dirty word.

Less is more?!
The album didn't have gatefold sleeve status as the previous album but an excellent design nevertheless.
One of those albums that covered plenty of ground and variety in just a few tracks. Gives a real idea of how the band were working together to produce something of their own rather than borrowing, though no vocals from Alan this time.
