I overestimated this group. Quadrophenia all the way!

Queen really stepped up with II. Quadrophenia is a milestone in music.

I have to say I'm a bit surprised that Queen 2 is beating Quadrophenia.....Shocked

^ Now it's a draw. As much as I love Queen...

Well...I think Quad and Tommy for that matter are better than anything Queen ever did but I'm a Who fan and never thought that much of Queen.

I dig Queen II - in fact, their first five are all solid rock albums, but to put it up against an album like Quadrophenia?  
I like to feel the suspense when you're certain you know I am there.....

No Queen album can beat Quadrophenia (although this one and A Night at the Opera come rather close).

Queen II is probably my favourite album from them but Quadrophenia is an all-time great.

That's exactly the way I see it.

I can't even see this as being anything close to a legitimate contest.  
Nothing anywhere in the Queen catalog can touch even a middling Who album, let alone quad.
