I have always liked these two albums a lot but in the last ten years or so that has even increased more. I absolutely love these two albums, personally even more then Piledriver. There is something about these two albums that is amazing to me. Favorite tracks are Spinning wheel blues, Daughter, April Spring Summer and Wednesdays, Need your love, Umleitung, Someone's learning, Railroad... only minor point is the pointless inclusion of the nanana versions on DOTH, just should have kept it at one complete version imo.

They are brilliant and easy to underestimate as they're based on blues.
I only ever had them as part of compilation cassettes about their early years before Piledriver. I recently bought DOTH to hear it as it was originally intended. Must get Ma Kelly too to complete the experience. Didn't realise Nanana was on both.

I see...I got a version of MKSG on vinyl back then which included Down the Dustpipe besides the original songs..

They added the Nanana "Extractions" to pad it out as it was a bit short - maybe they were waiting for Rick's song-writing contribution & it never materialised!
But nonetheless, 2 great albums at the start of incredible 7 year run through to the recording of Live!

Ma Kellys is an album I truly love. As you here them the transform from their former selves. Daughter is really great to my hear. The setpiece of Is it really me/Gotta go home is still one of my favourites.
The Dog is a short album but great songs. The Quo sound was being honed.
A point Id make is the first 6 albums are so diverse. It was later that predictable Quo stereotype sound imerged.

"It was later that predictable Quo" You mean the 'twiddle diddle' solo era or you could mean the "Oh no not that fucking intro riff thing again" time.

Bit off track but I reckon the board will get this.Coleridge the poet was writing the incredible poem Kubla Khan based on a dream he had.
'Upon waking, he set about writing lines of poetry that came to him from the dream until he was interrupted by a person from Porlock. The poem could not be completed according to its original 200–300 line plan as the interruption caused him to forget the lines.'
Someone from Porlock interrupted Status Quo after BFY.

Kubla Khan was completed by Neil Peart (and put to music by Geddy Lee and Alex Lifeson) in the late 1970s

Did they make the mistake of going back ... to Minehead?

I don't like them even more than Piledriver but the release of these excellent albums is one of the most exciting metamorphosis there has ever been in rock music
And that is based on the fact that I already liked the fiskadelic period just before it. It makes these two albums even more fascinating and enjoyable for it. What a journey these guys went on back in those days
