"Get down deeper and down ..."

1975 was published "On The Level" and is certainly one of the best albums of Quo. After the great success of the albums previously and the single hits `Roll over lay down` and` Down down` could go wrong even eigendlich nothing.

With `Little lady`,` Most of the Time ', `Down down` and` Bye bye Johnny` are directly more of the classics of the band at the start. `Down down` is directly represented in 2 versions (the longer album version and the shorter single version). Alan Lancaster (bass), which for me has always been very important for the group, with 2 songs (`Over and done` and` Broken Man) doing. In addition, I still find `Nightride` of Rick Parfitt large class.
Really strong are the bonus songs and especially the brilliant live versions of `Roll over lay down` and` Roadhouse blues`. Status Quo in top form. Why the times when `Roadhouse blues` and` Juniors`s wailing` not agree, the secret of the record company will probably remain.

The bonus tracks are clear 5 star forgive. "On The Level" is with "Piledriver", "Hello", "Quo", "Blue For You" and "Quo Live" an absolute must-have.
