You know what's so great about this ! I'm now in my 60's and watching your reaction to so many of these Quo songs is exactly how I felt the first time listening as a youngster and believe me the feeling doesn't wain, it probably gets stronger and more appreciative of good music from a real tight band without the BS. Critics will come and go but it's stood the test of time over many more famous bands. Huzzah Quo

[@davidroberts6664]

Love this 58.and still love it best band ever

[@porkypile]

That entire album is fire.

[@leiper72]

And a great starter with Is There A Better Way? 😎

[@irishflink7324]

This is my favorite song by Status Quo

[@stephenjones1380]

And now, for something completely different: Railroad (album Dog of Two Head). Would love to see your reaction to that one.

[@FenderTele]

Could I also suggest Is it really me gotta go home from Ma Kelly

[@koekelmetperen]

Just a basic blues track

[@GeertDeLange-k5x]

From Ma Kelly to Blue for you, is a great journey

[@andrisbrieze4855]

Dog of two head is very early Quo boogie rock, fresh, authentic, like played in the garage with scuffed up jeans and broken plimsolls. Some of the songs like Umleitung snd Somethings going on in my head have a laid-back, transcendent, hypnotic feel and some are real rockers like Someone’s learning and Railroad. A brilliant and original album and great reflection of the atmosphere of the times. Love it.

[@petegreenfield3645]

Great song and reaction. i'd like to see you react to the tune 'Someone's Learning' from the 1971 Dog Of Two Head album, one of their heaviest tunes, lots of killer breakdowns and transitions!

[@rfashworth]

Mr. Rossi is such the showman my opinion is although they've retired from full on touring he won't be able to resist a handful of farewell sets somewhere as part of festivals... hope I'm right

Love Drifting away from the "Quo" album

[@nigelhill3436]

Heavy QUO

[@alanstrom2221]

DRIFTING AWAY is written by Parfitt/Lancaster. Lancaster on Vocals. It is very high on my list of favourite QUO songs. I have a lot of favourite QUO songs. LOL!!! I doubt whether Rossi likes it though. Anything good or cool by The Frantic Four, Rossi tends not to like. Rossi said that he doesn't like the Double LIVE album. Rossi is The Anti-QUO. Rossi is Cabaret QUO.

You've done Mystery Song from this album, well actually you haven't!! You've done the single edit at 4minutes, but not the full album version at 6m43. You have to do it and you will be so surprised!!!

[@j0hnf_uk]

A fantastic album track from the 1976, 'Blue For You', album, which was also the B-side for the, 'Rockin' All Over The World', single a year later. This really epitomises them on the top of their game, with the fast pace of the song, with just enough silence between the sections that make you beg for more. The middle build up and the solo leading out of the song are the cherries on this particular Quo cake. You have reacted to, 'Mystery Song', from this album, albeit the shortened single version. Which doesn't really do it justice, to be honest. 'Rain', is the obvious choice for another song to react to from this album. But, there's plenty of others from other albums that are waiting to be discovered, including:- Don't Waste My Time Break The Rules I Saw The Light Hold You Back Over The Edge Take Me Away

[@rossi12bar]

Reckon Mr Rock n Roll should do the "Proper" full length of mystery song

One of their fastest songs...in fact the whole album. Most of it was done with a whole lot of speed, literally :D

[@RogerRae-p6w]

@@nino910 yeah Mystery Song 😂🤣

[@RogerRae-p6w]

Although, Don't waste my time is my favourite Quo song, Ring of a change got me into Quo in the 1st place

[@alanstrom2221]

'Don't Waste My Time' opens their Piledriver album. It jumps out of your speakers and says "Hey listen to this, it'll change your life in a big positive way' I read an interview with The Anti-QUO where he said that after joining the Vertigo label they took all their Stage Equipment into the recording studio. I think they turned everything up to eleven and played LIVE in the studio on the Piledriver album and on most of their albums. Even on their IYCSTHeat album in 1978 you can hear them talking and calling out to each other. You can hear them talking and calling out to each other on most of their albums. 'Don't Waste My Time' puts a big grin on my face. It's a very sad, crying shame what Rossi did to destroy the best and greatest Band in history.

[@meb8707]

Check out DRIFTING AWAY form the Quo album. That's a track! Bassist Alan Lancaster takes Lead Vocals

[@chrismcdonagh688]

I first heard this when I turned Rockin All Over The World to the B side....after that I didn't play the A side anymore.

[@davidmarkham1812]

Quo should live on through your band.This whole album is a classic.Great reaction as always.This rabbit hole is endless.

[@markburleyemmerson1373]

Another classic from another UK no’1 Quo album. This track was also used as the B side on the multi million selling Quo single Rockin’all over the world.

@davidbarnes3232 yeah , good albums, for Mr not quite as good , we could also mention Whatever you Want, Just Supposin and Never too Late I guess, all good albums, but not quite as good 🤔

[@alanstrom2221]

@@davidbarnes3232 "Real" QUO fans regard 'Dog Of Two Head' and 'Ma Kelly's Greasy Spoon' to be two of their better "Rock" albums. QUO's rich tapestry of Psych Pop/Rock to Stoner Rock to Classic Rock to Disco Rock then back to Classic Rock then imploding into Country Rock then returning to form in 2002 with the magnificent "Heavy Traffic" and then continuing with several quality Rock albums up until 2019's "Backbone" which has some good Rock tracks. 2011's "Quid Pro Quo" is one of the best Rock albums ever made. "Let's Rock"

[@holgercraemer5598]

I love your reactions - exactly the same here when I listened to this song 48 years (or so) ago. Ring of a change is real masterpiece and it makes us ROCK - unfortunately it fades out... and was always wondering how the the song would proceed.... Please also check out from the Blue for you album: Is there a better way, Rain, Rolling home and Mystery Song - you would very likely like Little Lady from the album 'On the level' or Rocker's Rolling from the '77 album 'Rocking al over the world'. And also look who wrote the songs, there are 4 Rick Parfitt (R.I.P.) songs in the list and to be honest... he was the sounddriver of Quo: No Rick - No Gig

[@Andy-hb8kl]

Little Lady for an amazing breakdown......but it's another one that has to be paired. It's always played with Most Of The Time.

[@axelhagedorn01]

Yeah. Thats also a great but rarely known piece of Quo`s best songs. I am a fan since my youth ( bout 40 yrs) . But here is smth. i also can recomend to you- i know you also like THE HU. Listen to THE TROOPER their `s newest masterpiece .

[@yannickcaers1501]

You should listen the heavier Status Quo songs like Drifting Away, Big Fat Mama, Is There A Better Way and Is It Really Me/Gotta Go Home. I assure you you will love it.

We've got a few more bangers yet to line up for you!!!! Little Lady/Most Of The Time.....must be played together. Hold You Back. Break The Rules. I Saw The Light. Nightride. Mad About The Boy......etc etc!! And that is before we go back to pre Helllo!! Don't Waste My Time is stunning!!

[@stuartislay]

That’s a fact, Is There a Better Way, Rolling home and of course the extended version of Mystery song on this album are also great. Personally just start at the beginning with Pictures of matchstick album and keep going there are tracks on them all for you but def from Ma Kelly’s onwards you not be disappointed if you want the heavy Quo that we all love

[@JimS-j88]

You've now done Mystery Song and Ring Of A Change from this album but I can't believe that you still haven't listened to Rain from the same album! Mr Rock n Roll you will love it! The promo for the track is widely available on the net.

[@susanmccall736]

agree Dog of two head, mean girl then Piledriver from beginning to end- he's done Hello, he needs to go into Quo Blue for you is a start but he's picking and choosing tracks- he isn't getting a true picture of the magic of Quo- he has to go deep deeper and down. Im sure Francis does know- but he's a busy man and dad of eight kids so i don't suppose he's looking to adopt another one!

[@leo1314ok]

Im going to be a bit controversial here, you been listening mostly to pre 1977 quo which is fantastic, but there has been some more modern Quo classics for you to cover, Power of Rock from Perfect Remedy album and One man band from Rock til you drop. Give them a blast. ❤

Stoned Quo, try "In my chair". Slow heavy headbangers try "take me away" or "nightride". For fast you will love "little lady"

[@Ev3ntHorizon]

And sadly, every album after this documents their slow, terrible drift into schmaltz. First the drummer (Coghlan) was sacked, then the bassist (Lancaster) left and boom, their subsequent records became almost a vaudeville act. They were GREAT in their day though, no doubt about it, and great live too.

[@roypalfrey5694]

I know where you're coming from. In hindsight the rather "pop-ish" nature of Rocking all over the world" might have marked the beginning of the end. I still bought their albums for a few years and still have a drum stick from Hammersmith Odeon (the 1+9+8+2 tour so Pete's stick not John's). The band naturally changed with the departure of John and Alan but I also think the vibe also suffered when the keyboards featured more prominently and altered the "crunch" of the guitars. When a band has a rhythm guitarist like Rick Parfitt, it seems such a waste to smother him in the mix. This all seems like I'm having a bit of a dig but honestly I was a big fan, bought their records, wore their t-shirts, saw them live and learned their songs (not 3 chords if you do them properly) but now looking back as someone in their mid 60s, I feel they were fresher back in the 70s......as was I!

[@hermannluttmann1637]

Nice pick - what a great song. Too bad you'll neve get to see the original lineup anymore - I was lucky enough to see them live in New York City as the opening act for Peter Frampton in 1975. If you really want to hear them live from back then - raw and rocking like crazy - you have to listen to Status Quo Live 1977. kzbin.info/www/bejne/mpfNqpp7jbuCeck
