4500 Times, an excellent track to close an excellent album.

I'm amazed that all the tracks from the '70s have been whittled down to just 4 & yet there's still a cover on the list!

I'm not sure if people think about whether it is a cover or not, or just the quality (how much they like) the song. It wouldn't have surprised me if Roadhouse Blues was a favourite. 45 HT for me!

1 of these I'm quite tired of, 1 bores me, 1 I feel has been tarnished with all the tinkering of it over the years, the other one always sounds as magnificent and fresh as the day I first heard it. Big fatty gets my vote by a country mile.

I'd have to say Big Fat Mama...it was the song that got me hooked all those years ago.
The Best one though is another matter,the version of 4500 times from 1991 is the best song done ever by anybody...

Unlike Durango, I'm not a huge fan of the 4500x '91 version, and I really dislike the shortened versions which Quo have performed over the years. For me, the original track was a masterpiece, and need nothing doing to it; certainly not shortened! Consequently I now struggle to listen to the original without it annoying me a bit

Actually I don't like most of the songs in this final anymore and the result is disappointing for me. I too very much prefer the 91 version of 4500x and I can't stand BFM anymore - even PP is closing in on 'overplayed' status (although the acoustic live version is great). The only song that still has some freshness about it is the cover song WSOL, the song that made me take notice of the band. I know people don't like medleys - just when you get into a song it's over again and the beautiful instrumental parts are cut off - but with the Mystery Medley we got at least snippets of some great songs like MOTT and WSOL .. Thanks again for staging this poll, Rich - I know it's a lot of work putting it up in the first place with all those links added.
