If you include it in the “lazy/uninspired/tepid strum-along beige nonsense” section it should win easily

Who ever voted yes needs slapped. I did too. Its part of Quo's 2015 out put and should be considered. Let the vote decide.

They're all re-recordings. 2. They're all shite. If it had been just 2 guitars, a bass and drums, I would've reconsidered.

If it had been just 2 guitars, a bass and drums, I would've reconsidered. Yes, they're re-recordings but some have quite different arrangements. Whether or not you like it, they did try to do something different. Its not really to my taste either. But there are nearly 200 members on here now. And if we're to encourage all tastes in Quo to join in, I suggest it is included. And let others have a say. Your 2nd reason for opposing inclusion is simply your opinion. CBH put up a poll for members to vote on. So please lets not intimidate anyone who feels differently to you.

I'm not intimidating anyone, if they're gonna be included, other re-recordings should be included shouldn't they, like the POMM re-recording for instance??

Yes, I think that intimidating was a word too far. So apologies for that. However, your point was that they shouldn't be included because they are 'shite' in your eyes that I thought some members might find off-putting. That is your opinion and not a fact though. Which I think is a fair comment to make. And yes, other recordings should be. I don't know about POMM be rerecorded other than the Aquostic version. But if there is one, then yes.

I may of worded it wrong. My reason I felt they shouldn't of been included was that they're re-recordings, my opinion of them is that, well shite's a bit strong, hmm... they didn't live up to my expectations.

I share your pain too.

Include it - it is/was a product whether one likes it or not.
Irrespective of such opinion, there was no need to make a thread and ask the question really, though I understand why it was done
I welcomed it as a one-off, and enjoyed the gig as a one-off. However, the project, creatively, could have been more than a one dimensional strum-along and the knives will be very much out if they do a second one that is treated identically.

Yes - just as long as it doesn't mean I have to listen to any of the tracks again!

I actually thought this album might have been the only post '81 studio album worth getting - until I heard the arrangements. Of the current band, only Andy emerges with any credit for his contribution.
