A is pretty great, naturally, but also a terribly unimaginative pick. Sorry, A. B is good fun, and reminds me why progressive rock around the turn of that decade really appeals to me.

Re: 70s KnockOut Cup- SS 5
That Stevie track is pretty damn good, but spoiled a bit by the drawn out ending.
'Babylon' isn't my favourite off of 666 (that would be 'Altamont', but that one would absolutely not go over well in a competition) and to be honest, I find it a bit hokey in its ham-handed Who-ness, but whatever...
A wins this one.

Brave not to pick The Four Horsemen off 666 but this is a logical choice if you want to get something from that album. SW is good but it's a

Re: 70s KnockOut Cup- SS 5
A has to be one of the most obvious picks we've had in the entire cup, let alone this knockout extension. It's not a very good tune either, mixing some of the more saccharine tendencies of McCartney-inspired songwriting with a choice of tones and production that would make Tony Banks blush in embarrassment. B's not only a more interesting choice, it's also the better track, and a most enjoyable one at that too.
