Rotten to the bone, is one of the more Quo like tracks recorded during the Perfect Remedy sessions.
I really like it, is it well recieved on here?

I really like verses not so much the chorus.
Would have lifted side 2 of perfect remedy though as either opener or closer

Bit average. I always preferred Doing It All For You.
As said, probably better than many other tracks on the album.

I like it. The best B-Side from Remedy. Should be in the album.

I like that one too, kinda reminds me of Your smiling face the way the chorus plays out. Took me ages to work out what Doing it all for you reminded me of, and then I recently played Your smiling face, and bingo I found it.

Mediocre.
But a lot better than most of the Perfect Remedy album.

Mediocre. But a lot better than most of the Perfect Remedy album. I respect that it almost sounds like they knocked it out as a bit of fun, bit like a jamming session, not to be taken seriously. Bit for me that's the attraction to it.

Decent riff but as with a lot of the post-86 stuff it's just too clean and polite with happy-clappy lyrics/melody to boot. There's a decent rock band in there somewhere though.

I like it the lyrics remind me of an ex girlfriend of mine (always looking in the mirror) it's a good song

It was a b-side for a reason.

It should've been on the album in place of Not At All, in my opinion.
