Re: Quo - Forty-Five Hundred Times

I think I have it figured out. I can find no record of Quo playing the Marquee in December 1972, but they did - apparently twice - earlier that year. One of the gigs can be heard here - https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=ES7vrpufHek - and it's most likely the track "Is It Really Me?/Gotta Go Home" from this gig that was referred to at the start of The Count's review, still too early to have evolved in name and nature into Forty-Five Hundred Times. Now, having heard it, I think there was some slight exaggeration from The Count, but it isn't that far from the mark, really, once they get going in the middle. Pretty good! The audio on that youtube clip gets a bit jittery in the last two tracks of the set, but no great loss, it's only Roadhouse Blues and Johnny B Goode in fairly pedestrian form!
