I was asked what I thought of this album after listening to it for the very first time. I'm not ready to give it a grade yet, by it's much better than I was led to believe. In fact, the defiance in the lyrics is very surprising, and the reference to IYCSTH was really awesome. The worst song on the album might be the title track, which is the worst version of that song I've ever heard, a song I otherwise love.

Maybe the best groovin' album. Still NTL is own fave. By the way: QPQ with harder mixing (drums..) , then it goes pretty near to Ntl. There are so many good tracks on both albums.

Though Quo also flows like a story. I hadn't thought of it that way, but I think you're right. I think they did IYCSTH, which I love, got some flak for being too 'pop', which is untrue, and said 'F you, we're a rock and roll band and that's all we want to be. If you don't like it, F off. If you do, then come rock with me.'

I am in a minority as I be never liked Living in an Island. For me its if its time and twee.
But other than that the most consistent album after OTL.

This is lovely. We know they all sounds the same, yet there are differences in the perceptions of the samey songs.....

What ruins Come Rock With Me / Rockin' On, & therefore taints the whole album, are the dreadful lyrics - it sounds like a guide vocal that was never superceded by an actual song! Otherwise, it was a huge return to form after the previous pair of releases.
