PR is outstanding in this competition. Far from their worst albums, even with terrible songs like Tommy and Addressbook. Years ago I hated this but now I would say it is in my top 5 CQ-albums somewhere after RTYD, UTI, HT.

This is the only poll you'll ever see PR horsing the opposition. I remember listening to it and couldn't believe how lightweight, bland and cringeworthy it sounded. A totally phoned in album, and that was me done with Quo for many years. Spot on, exactly my thoughts! I wouldn´t vote for PR in any competition ever, and not here either! Heard AQII for the first time today and it´s not that bad that I had expected. I have to listen a few times more before I decide which to vote for, but it will definetly NOT be PR! Never ever! |

Ha ha! Love it, Per!! And whilst I would normally agree with you, and PR is the worst album they've done, I have in fact, voted for it in this instance, because at least it has original material on it, which makes it more, erm, shall we use the word 'interesting' to listen to, rather than the covers albums.
Actually, when I say that PR is the worst album they've done, I should quantify that by adding, their worst album of original material.
Their worst album, by a country mile, is FITLC. But that's just covers, so it doesn't even count. It's not worthy of comparison.

AQ1 for me. Purely for the class of the songs on it and a few that I really like the arrangements.

I know, I know I nearly went for PR for POR, but look at all the other stuff on it ... I think I'll go for AQ2 as some of the arrangements are better than the ones on AQ1. Possibly. No chance of the covers album, I mean, just don't do that. Maybe I haven't listened to AQ2 enough to judge it fairly, but my immediate reaction was the opposite to yours. I felt that the AQ1 arrangements were far more interesting and professional sounding. But maybe I just liked the songs themselves more....? |

This is NOT about the US Presidential elections. |

I am truly stunned that anybody voted for Perfect Remedy at all..
Its sheer torture😧 Aquostic-1 is the only one barely listenable out of that lot.
Stunned.

Which as a standout track is better than TW's Rude Awakening Time. |

Yeah I'd much rather listen to TW over PR.

A totally phoned in album, and that was me done with Quo for many years. "that was me done with Quo for many years." Same here.Although I bought HT and QPQ I've only played either of them about 4 times and wondered "Am I missing something?".I've listened to the other albums on spotify and dismissed them instantly..fcuking fiddle diddle diddle Rossi intro's and the odd Parfitt track. |
