Ten infectious tracks from the Brit glam rock group Quireboys, otherwise known as Guy and Spike.
This is an excellent hard rock album, it came out the same time as the Black Crows début, and was 10 times better, but after this album, they pretty much dropped off of the face of the earth. The best song is a rock classic, 7 o’clock.

5.0 out of 5 stars Like opening a time capsule to good old Rock ‘n’ Roll.
Any fan of The Quireboys will love this album as the recording actually predates their debut album A Bit of What You Fancy. Showcasing some of the classic Quireboys hits, kicking off with 7 O’Clock, Hey You, Man On The Loose, Mayfair, Where’ve You Been To, Whipping Boy, Devil of a Man, Hates to Please, I Don’t Love You Anymore, Roses and Rings. The recording is so raw that this adds to the charm, songs which would be developed for their outstanding debut and which remain staple concert favourites all these years later.
This is The Quireboys and this is Rock ‘n’ Roll.
