Seen by many as a massive return to form by Quo.
Don’t get me wrong, the songs are some of the best they had written for years
but as back then, I still feel that the production is very poor and let the album down massively.

I think, in retrospect, the album now sounds a bit dull. Sonically that is. Whether that's down to the production or other factors, I have no idea. At the time, I also thought it was a massive return to form. A renaissance almost. One of several watershed moments in their long career. And I still think it holds up against most things they've ever done. But I agree; it could do with a remaster; a bit of spit and polish or TLC. A deluxe edition maybe like so many recent releases.  |

My eyes won't move from it As FH said, watch this space. I've done the tracklistings and I'm hoping everyone will be really pleased when they get released  |

Nice! The tracklist I have for my digital collection has a total of 39 tracks on it, just for studio tracks. Lots of demos from this time. I also added the singles You'll Come Round and Thinking of You (and their related tracks) to this album, instead of, say, Riffs.

As long as The Oriental isn't on it... That's a shame! The bonus discs are jam packed with alt mixes and extended versions of The Oriental  |
