Dog Of Two Head was Quo's fourth album, and the last on the Pye label, before Quo left for the newly formed Vertigo label.
Originally released as Pye NSPL18371 in December 1971, the "Dog" album (as it became known) marked Quo's change of direction and their familiar brand of 12-bar boogie is strongly evident on this one of their strongest early album efforts.
The original nine track album brought such Quo standards as "Mean Girl", "Railroad", "Gerdundula" and "Someone's Learning", all live favourites past and present. Kicking it all off, "Umleitung", an 8 minute epic, through "Something's Going On In My Head" and culminating in the complete version of "Nanana" after a couple of interspersed teasers of snippets of the song. Listening to these songs some 27 years on, they sound vibrant, original, fresh and exciting, laying the foundation upon which Quo would cement their loyal following. The quality of the offerings here needs no superlatives - a 1998 set still including three songs from this 1971 recording pays testament to both their popularity and ability to stand up alongside some of Quo's best tracks.
As an added bonus, this CD also boasts five previously unreleased versions of Quo tracks. "Tune To The Music" is presented via a different mix to the original and sounds exuberant with its very forward vocals and pacey guitar work, only spoiled by an incomplete finish. Another new mix follows, this time in the form of "Good Thinking (Batman)", notable as one of Quo's few instrumentals. Originally destined for the Dog album itself, this track took some time to surface, not being released by Pye until 1981. The mix here is much more keyboard heavy than that release, giving a more honky-tonk feel. Another track which lurked in the Pye vaults for far too long, "Time To Fly", is next up - originally seen on Pye's "Fresh Quota" in 1981 but seen here as an out-take of the Dog album. An alternate version of the ditty "Nanana" starts with a mistake from Francis (then being called "Mike"), then restarts and rewards with an ultimately relaxed version of the song, Francis' vocals are effortless and the guitar work is far less tight than the album version. To round things off, an alternate version of that Quo classic "Mean Girl" which features harmonising vocals from Rick. (statusquo. co. uk)
