This album is a MUST for every Quo fan. The best bootleg in town taken
from the
soundboards from our Quo. This album including Restless was released
before the officila
album with Restless on it. As far as I know this was the first and only
time that Quo played
live songs before the officail release.

> CDS, FBI
There ia new bootleg CD in town called "FBI". The first song on this on
is directly the nicest one. "FBI" is a instrumental song with Mr Brain
May from Queen on guitar. There is a nice Quo sound in this Shadow
cover, old Quo fans will like it. The following tracks are on it :

FBI
I'll never get over you
Gone thru the slips
Rockin' all over the world (live)
Roll over lay down (live)

The second song is the b - side of the CD single "All Around My Hat".
"Gone Thru The Slips" is on the b - side of the "Nott At All" CD single.
The first three songs are never released on any Quo album. The rumour is
that the first 25 (?) are released on a limited 3" CD single. On this
one there are four tracks, "Gone Thru the Slips" is missing.
