Featuring STATUS QUO'S CHRISTMAS PARTY GAME! Get in! That rings a vague bell!! Remember being really pleased to get a tour patch. I'd thought the days of anyone making them was long gone. Was this the last official one ? Mine is still sewn into my old denim jacket ,it never did look right !

The covers not bad. Which is not something I have thought often about the band since Whatever you want.

Given that I don't consider this to be a Status Quo album, but rather a different band masquerading under the same name, I don't judge it as being Quo. Even so, it's still dreadful. The song Perfect Remedy is a pleasant enough soft rock bopper, but most of it is simply appalling, even for a band not pretending to be Status Quo.

Obviously not Quo's finest hour. Very few of us would dispute that. But the review is along the same lines as most, although at least it mentions some tracks. He's certainly been proven completely wrong by his final paragraph but there are no comebacks on journalists or papers who come up with bollox; only bands. At least I don't think there's a message board dedicating all discussions to the rights and wrongs of past publications and long forgotten hacks. That would be preposterous

That would be preposterous I don’t think any one has read a review and thought, I’m disappointed with the quality of their writing. Their grammar was much better back in the day. They reflect a mindset or viewpoint. People buy into it or they don’t. Never understood why reviews any fans. Good or bad, I make my own decision.

I just don’t get the bitterness towards the reviewers. some could be very harsh. So what they didn’t get it. Also the band has released a lot of average albums.
