The glorious slowly-building blues shuffle that closes 'Breaking Away' has to be up there. Brilliant blues harp from Bob.

I love the outro to Runaway
I think that's my favourite fade out. We could have a whole topic on songs that fade out that shouldn't. Take me away makes me feel cheated that they didn't leave the tape running!

'Caroline Live at the NEC' still nails it for me all these decades later...and 'Forty Five Hundred Times' at Milton Keynes Bowl '84 is what Quo (to me anyway) were and will always be about

Maybe i'm the only one but the very end of Mystery Song is just a bit daft - like circus music... "bring on the clowns!" The outro starts well and builds up nicely making you wonder what it's going to do, but then in come the clowns and sure, a bit of humour is good and very Quo, but just doesn't suit that particular song. I don't hear that at all, but the idea made me smile - I'll try to imagine it the next time I listen to it! I always thought, even when I first heard it, that it was Quo trying their hand at a bit of 70's funk. Which was a bit of a groove thang at time. It wasn't funk, of course, any more than their faux reggae was authentic in the middle of Falling In Falling Out but I do like that Mystery Song outro. |

- Don't Think It Matters (Like the Intro, but they pass from D to A and then to D again, which I love it)
- Rockers Rollin' (the unedited outro from the John Eden video mixes which doesn't fade out, just WOW)
- Runaway (I love Alan's part from the outro. I like more to play them rather than listening to it to be honest)
- Livin' on an Island
- Run to Mummy (Again, I think this is because Alan's part)
- The Wild Ones (Easy riders...Stuck in my mind and still is)
- Take Me Away (that solo...)
- Riverside (the never ending Riversides)
- Nothing Comes Easy (Even more faster)

Mystery Song still makes me smile to this day.
Love Bobs Harp ending on Breaking Away
Wish we got more of Rockers Rollin though.
