Couldn't really tell the difference gates, I bought all those on 8-track tapes. Too small to really notice the difference.

Have you still got them? A nice classic heirloom if so. I was hoping you didn't ask. They ended up being sold at my garage sale along with about another 100 8-tracks. Didn't realize 'til later that my Quo tapes were amongst them.  I can't even pin that one on the wife.  |

I'd never been interested in things like that. Or rather perhaps more accurately simply didn't think about it  I was more interested and concerned about the contents of the albums |

I loved the Blue for You font when I first saw it but I love it best of all in simple black and white form:  However, I hate the broken font type used during the CQ era, like a watered down Quo, which in many ways, it is. |

What about the really round font on the first three albums - prefer the change.

Worst thing about the RAOTW cover was {7.8 on the richter scale } or what ever it was , very misleading , more like a 3 on the richter scale .

I never was very interested in fonts. More concerned about logos (if any). If Traffic had ditched their roundabout logo, I would have been much miffed. ( Bad admission for someone who did a course in print design ) |

The fatter rounder font was the one I knew from 1979/1980 onwards.
I quite liked the 1+9+8+2 one because it felt like a 'posh' anniversary font.
But in 1983 when they went 'back' to the hard edged one - the original one from Hello! - I didn't like it.
It felt like they were trying to modernise it - same in 1988 & 1989 - not for me.
Give me big fatty everytime.

Can't say I've ever noticed the difference, apart from Hello! having a larger space between the words "Status" and "Quo"..
RAOTW was obviously trying to depict an earthquake but with the waveform spelling out the band name...

Why and how have I and a couple of others appeared to have de-registered at some stage in the not too distant past? 
Scary! |

Scary! The threads from last year. You left remember, and then came back due to public demand. |
