Right folks - who won't say that when we saw there was a song called "R'n'R" on a Quo release, you thought 'YES, it's gonna be a stormer!'. And who wasn't disappointed when we got what we eventually got? I know I was fairly p***ed-off! Haha. Exactly... Closing the album as well I thought “ere we go” final track R&R get the tennis racket ready !! Then ? What was that !

It's good but, could be a lot better.
Don't think Francis' voice suits it. Rick would have been the better choice. The backing vocals are horrendous.
I like the sound, the vibe, solo is brilliant.

A bit like the album RTYD. What's to rock about it?

It has all the things a song should not have. No real drive. Fairground keyboards. Somnolent pace. I love it. I suppose I was a Radio Caroline fan too.

I adore it. Fantastic vocal from Francis and a glorious outro solo.

The worms are beginning to turn Never my favourite Quo song but, strangely, it is on one of my favourite Quo albums. A mate of mine, who was anything but a Quo fan, liked it; which proves some sort of point. I think. If we're in the car and this comes on the radio Mrs Railroad always turns this one up.

Closing the album as well I thought “ere we go” final track R&R get the tennis racket ready !! Then ? What was that ! Yeah...Fender Winfield Rod Laver was plugged in and ready to go. That conjures up an image, a whole bank of AC30's, dry ice, spotlights and a plugged in tennis racket. I could play both guitar parts of Caroline on one one racket..but it did have 20 odd strings.
