Slow Train for me. Remember hearing it for the first time on the Friday Rock Show in the early 80's and being blown away by it. Just started getting into Quo as a 14 yr old in 1980 with Just Supposin and 12 Gold Bars. Different times back then when the only way to check out the back catelogue was to actually buy it or catch the odd snippet on the radio. Used to record the Friday Rock Show religously every week to hear all the rock music at the time. Happy days!

I feel like I’ve heard them all so many times now that it’s more a case of best experience listening to a song.
That would be backwater and 4500 times at Hammersmith FF

I would agree it’s nigh on impossible to chose one song as a favourite but if I am sent to a desert island and only allowed to bring one with track I’m sticking with Caroline. Then again if I am on a desert island I will have plenty of time so I will go for the really long live version of Forty Five Hundred Times. Or maybe a medley would be allowed… I give up it’s impossible to choose,

Impossible to choose - I’ll always seriously love DWMT, but then there’s The Wild Ones, Who Asked You, 4500x, Slow Train, Umleitung, Someone’s Learning, ROLD, on and on and on - but then it stops around ‘81-‘82ish, but I’m ok with that cos from ‘70 to ‘81 they made me stupid-happy! 🥳

Definitely NO medleys, but all the longer ones to keep it interesting. Can I choose IIRM-GGH as 1 or would that be breaking the no medleys rule?

Can't be done. I couldn't even put a double album together of my favourite Quo tracks. Can't be done? You obviously mean you can't make a choice, if you mean the song...nurse, the screens.

Not a chance of this for me. I can name some favourite bits.
The pick up after the variation on BFM. The 2nd solo on DWMT that comes from under the music(I'm no musician but I know what I mean) The moment JC starts the drums and Lancaster comes in on All The Reasons The quiet start and mayhem on Oh Baby followed by the guitar solo and the other bits until the resumption of the vocals The 2nd solo on Unspoken Words The "We all make mistakes forgive me" and "Even so I really do care" and the guitar part when the music stops on Paper Plane The harmonies when they sing "How can I ever start to tell you " on a Year The dual guitar mix on the solo and Lancaster's vocal on Roadhouse Blues
Well that's Piledriver sorted.Only another 6 albums from Ma Kelly through to BFY to sort out.

Roll over lay down from the Live-EP. Listen to it, as loud as possible, on your headphones and you know why.

Don't even know. For sure it isn't Too Close to the Ground or Going Down for the First Time.
