Sorry, but I can't find anything good on this album, even the few listenable songs are rather weak and poor compared to the earlier era. So no songs at all gets my vote this time

I'm puzzled - how come Dreamin' gets as many votes as the title track and EOTL? I mean, surely there's a quality difference, eh?

God. I clearly remember getting this LP as a gift. I hate it with a vengeance because of what it represents. I have voted for four, but it is pointless saying which four. The Quo band made worse albums, but this is the one I'd burn and scatter at the crossroads. The sickening thing was it had multiple single success - 4 "hits" - which sent Frame entirely the wrong message for us Quo fans back then. It was even worse for me...I bought the damn thing blind back then without listening... Last time I ever bought an album without lstening to it !! |

I know we have a "original album only" policy when it comes to these polls but in this case the average quality of the bonus tracks is clearly higher than the average quality of the album. Lonely, Keep Me Guessing & Heartburn are really good IMO and the other three are still way better than dross like Dreamin' or Speechless. |

Dreadful album with some of their worst ever tracks on it (eg Speechless, Invitation and Dreamin'). Also left us with the horrible live legacy of the title track. Only been topped in recent years by the even more woeful and cringeworthy Oriental. A gruesome twosome in the CQ set list.
Only managed two votes, Red Sky, which I quite like, and Rollin' Home which is mediocre.
Sadly even worse was to come with the following three albums !

I've not voted as I honestly don't think I will ever listen to this album again, or any of the songs on there I don't think there any other albums from MKGS onwards that I feel that way about |
