First encountered the track on the 'Rest of Status Quo' vinyl album that I purchased in about '77. I loved that album with the cover photo and the tracks which were earthy and honest, possibly the best way to describe things. The album meant a lot to me as a teenager. Oh dear, getting a tad bit nostalgic. Repent repent etc...

A thing of beauty. So let's hear it  I first heard it on the Dog.... album which I'd bought in the summer of 1973. An album that blew me away and I still rate as one of the very best. By anyone. |

That sound, that slow tempo... brilliant
As the band got older, would have liked to have heard them playing this tempo more rather than trying to emulate frantic. On the reunions, this slower shuffle would have been better than the likes of Little lady and is there a better way
Altbough this is pure Quo, not that much in this vein followed it

I bought DOTH after I'd heard Piledriver. What a great album it is, I wish I'd heard DOTH first, Piledriver would have been even better, if that's possible. |

Umleitung has been slowly climbing my rankings since about 1990 when I first probably heard it as a kid
Top ten. For sure. Maybe top 5.
