Favourite Quo Album: On The Level

Post by gav on Oct 2, 2020 20:26:00 GMT
These 'album of the month' threads (cheers Victor) have got me thinking there's a fair whack of Quo music i don't really like and rarely listen to. So i set about thinning out all of Quo's albums to suit my preference.
Some, like IYCSTH, have become EP's, so thin on the ground of decent material are they. Good fun though if you've too much time on your hands of a weekend. Trying to get a flow in the order of tracks... Post your results here.
Hell, i even managed a half decent album 10-track album from combining both the Aquostics:
1. That's A Fact 2. Is Someone Rocking Your Heart? 3. Don't Drive My Car 4. A Mess Of The Blues 5. Dear John 6. Pictures Of Matchstick Men 7. in The Army Now 8. Mystery Song/Little Lady 9. Backwater 10. Rock 'N' Roll

Nice idea gav ! I will try that later on with some albums which are bad ones for me, see if I can make a decent one out of two or three bad ones |

I originally did it to make CD's for the car, so i wouldn't spend half my life pressing the skip button and crash into a wall.

I'll have a go when I get an hour or two spare...🤔😟 Yeah, exactly that. Quo and On The Level I thought about, and I could probably make "Just Too Late" but I thought I'd focus on the albums where I knew for sure I wouldn't end up merging them together and ending up with 15 tracks. And yes, definitely some interesting choices.  |

Really enjoying the album titles here folks! [God isn't it an indictment of much of Quo's output that we can all have a go at this and still end up discarding SO much]  G
