Hot take but I like this better than Sell Out. Peak anything-goes swinging london mod-pop right here.
i never really got the aggressive praise for sell out. quick one, my generation, tommy, whos next, and quadrophenia for me. The title track to A Quick One is transcendental, iver the engine driver kills me
>so lets have a smile for an old engine driver
great delivery there, and the entire you are forgiven climax is beautiful
>>126801868 (OP)I really love this album, but I have to admit it's somewhat of a train wreck. The fact that the entire band contributed to the songwriting led to some disastrous moments like Cowbells and See My Way, they left out two great Pete songs= Happy Jack, i'm a Boy, but they included a crappy one= "dont look away" .Overall, it feels very unbalanced and amateurish compared to other 1966 albums.
>>126801868 (OP)Why hasn't this been reissued in 30 years? Are the master tapes lost/damaged?
