Status Quo Piledriver
If anything tells the story of Status Quo’s rise to fame and becoming almost a national institution, these tracks reveal all. Two name changes and then, in 1968, the psychedelic-influenced ‘Pictures Of Matchstick Men’ made the UK Top Ten, also charting across Europe, and a Top 20 US hit. ‘Ice In The Sun’ was another UK Top Ten hit. However, the hits dried up and it wasn’t till a heavier-sounding Quo roared back into the UK charts in 1971 with ‘Down The Dustpipe’, followed up by the grungy ‘In My Chair’. Digitally remastered and slipcased.
‘On The Level’ is the eighth Status Quo studio album. It features Francis Rossi, Richard Parfitt, Alan Lancaster and John Coghlan. Released in February 1975, the album entered the chart at #1. All tracks were written or co-written by the group including Robert Keith Young, except ‘‘Bye Bye Johnny’’, written by Chuck Berry.
