I've already tracked down a lot of them, such as 'Lonely' and a bunch more, but what are some great lesser tracks I might not have heard of? I either own or listen to virtually everything on the FF albums, excluding the first two who I don't like (Matchstick and Spare Parts). What's a little know song you love that I might not have heard? Whilst I appreciate your dislike of the Spare Parts era, have you heard this one?
Glad I could be of some help...

Honestly, it doesn't do much for me. I think it's the production. This is the kind of song Quo did once upon a time where they could elevate it from ho-hum to something more. And the keyboards here are horrific. But I do thank you for posting it in response to my request.

Glad I could be of some help... I had never listened to it before. It's interesting, because you can tell right away that Lancaster at least co-wrote it.

3 lesser known from the 70's. I spent years during the 80's tracking down Joanne! The other two I didn't know existed until the old message board started.
Joanne
Rearrange
Shifting Sand

They were the last non-album b-sides if I'm right??

Rossi - Thanks mate. Shifting sands and Rearrange were new to me, which was what I was hoping to get from this. Fascinating stuff.

Dublin - I'd heard Fighting With the Pack before, but for some reason didn't pay attention. Thanks for the reminder, it's #331 on the SQ playlist.

So has everybody here heard AL's demos, that I think are post SQ? They are surprisingly polished and much more like his later SQ stuff, but honestly I really like them. would love to have heard them with Quo backing him.
But you guys probably know far more about this than me.
