OK, here starts the second round of the head to head polls and it'll remain in chronological order. So here goes - first pairing is PMM vs. Dog - psychedelic vs. early rock. Which of the two do you prefer ?
I'll start the poll in this section, but if not enough of you venture over here, I'll be forced to move it to the general chat section. Let's see ..

This one's mad! Dog Of Two Head is one of the greatest albums ever made. Picturesque Messages.... sort of, eh, isn't

Don't really think there is much of a doubt on this one.

Well, maybe if we had more yanks on here the result would be less depressing for PMM

Not really a fair fight! How many fans are Quo fans due to Pictures or Spare Parts or that style of music. Not slagging the poll, just commenting!

I'd actually be surprised if PMM gets a single vote. After all Quo never were a psychedelic band, they only dressed as one for a short while and it shows in the quality of songwriting (apart from POMM, obviously). On the other hand DOTH was what they really wanted.

Dog... absolutely love it. For me probably Quos best album. 🤔

As i said, the Everley Sisters was a cover version, as to whether it was blown or not I have no idea. But it sure blew me away

Yeah, The Andrews Sisters was the wartime original. I think the Beverley Sisters also covered it. I have no idea who the Everley Sisters are

Dawn and Philomena Everly You're both getting silly now It's an age thing. Regression back to juvenile humour No doubt I'll eventually revert back to total infancy at some stage, unable to speak and plagued with incontinence. And much as I'd like to climb back into the womb of some shapely geriatric nurse, I suspect that part of the cycle of life will be kept from me

After careful consideration, I’ve given my vote to the Dog album. I don’t actually hold it in as high esteem as many, think there is still a gulf between it and the albums which followed. But still some great stuff on there, Railroad, Someones Learning and Umleitung being the three that really spring to mind. On the other hand, Na Na Na is a bit of a throw-away and I’ve never liked Mean Girl.
As for Pictures, I can’t remember the last time I was tempted to listen to it, to be honest I don’t think I could claim with full confidence that I’ve ever listened to it all the way through. Just tried to remember off the top of my head what songs are actually on it, I only managed three – POMM, Ice in the Sun & Gentleman Joe.
