Not surprising to me, it is still my favorite Quo album Victor. I hold counselling sessions at The Piledriver clinic for this condition. don't worry, Piledriver is still amongst my most liked albums. But NTL always has been special to me, just the way it is

Go on I’ll ill give this a go buy some of it will be not picking for the sake of it. Worst of the best: Never been the biggest fan of Broken Man I really dislike the guitar sound on Live 77 Production of hello isn’t as full a sound as the other classic era albums. Best of the worst: I really like Who gets the love and I know you’re leaving 😬 First side of Perfect Remedy is good Obstruction day is a good b- side from a thin era of good songs. And another surprising thing: Never too late is probably my favourite quo album "Production of hello isn’t as full a sound as the other classic era albums." Like the bloke said in Educating Rita said " Saying anything negative about Hello, It's like pissing on Damon Lyon-Shaw's tomb.

I think Blue for You has the best sound, and is probably my favourite of the classic era albums.

The only negative I have to say about Piledriver is that the instrumental parts on "All the Reasons" (the over dubbed 12-string guitars) isn't tight enough. I like that song but It's so hard to listen to that part without thinking about how good it could have sounded if everyone was playing in time. They should have practiced that part a few more times before recording it.
I really like the lead guitar on Ol Rag Blues, but I prefer the version with Alan singing. Remember I loved No Contract, and I guess I still think it's OK but maybe it only stands out because of the low standard of the rest of the album.

Bottom of the heap will always be Back To Back. Certainly THE biggest disappointment. But it has Too Close To The Ground and No Contract on it as saviours. I know many see the latter song as a lame heavy metal attempt, but I like it. And the production on it seems different to the rest of the album. Which it probably isn't There is even an absence of irritating synths on it. It's a truly guitar driven song during a plinky-plonky keyboard driven era. There is actually a lot of synths and keyboards on that track. Maybe not just the most annoying ones.

Agreed, which is why I used the word 'irritating' I didn't express myself too well and sort of meant that the guitars are much more to the fore unlike on, say, Going Downtown Tonight (or the dreadful I Wonder Why a couple of years later).
