They will have to go some to be technically superior to Banks and Hackett mate.

For me they go some....and are out of sight ;)

It’s an age thing I think.
the music you fall in love with between the age of 13 - 20ish forms the soundtrack to the rest of your life. For me, the sweet spot was 1973 when I was 16. (Check out the albums released in 1973. It has an amazing list of classics). What was a young lad to like?
Zeppelin
The Who
Yes
Genesis
ELP

The Osmonds?

A 4 piece from Cambridge maybe?

The Osmonds?

That was a draft of the review I was about to compose. I don’t know how I posted it. Will delete.

Can I just point out that when I "like" a scoring post on here, it doesn't necessarily mean that I agree with what's been said, it just means I have recorded the score.

I felt ashamed liking a few of the above posts, but such is the lot of the scorer!

I know. All these 10/10s. Bloody hell.

I knew somebody would say that.

Maybe you'll just have to wait for my review to find out the truth.

Every Wednesday is the deadline right ?

No. They’ve been replaced.

Can I lower my rating on 10cc so that they don't go above The Replacements? :)

I would have given it a 10/10 but in my world there is no 10/10 as their is always some imperfection of music to the ear if not the soul.

In saying that Let it be IMO is by far my favourite listing to date on this thread and for me there is a world of difference between an 8 and a 9.5 as music can be so nuanced and have moments that touch the soul for a variety of valid and enigmatic reasoning that -5 can mean a difference and for me Let it Be is a 9.5.

On Let it Be there is not one track that you wouldn't want to listen to over and over again its that good.

Correct. Planning on squeezing 100 listens in?
