STATUS QUO - STATUS QUO - Live At The BBC 1968-1970 - UK Maida Vale / Verne Press - LISTEN - VERY RARE - OSTATNIE SZTUKIprice: 150,00 PLN / 37,50 EUR
OUT OF PRINT! LAST COPIES! Superb, 60-minute material released on vinyl for the first time - in a very attractive, laminated sleeve with great photos of the band. Recorded live in the studio (with minor overdubs), the band sounded better than on the early records. The first side is a slab of underrated, exquisite, melodic soft-psychedelic rock, while the second side is much heavier material close to the aesthetics of hard rock. It goes down in one breath, but you have to like the music of the late 60s... All the recordings sound perfect. Please check the YouTube links, although some great tracks were unfortunately unavailable... A must! NEW, SEALED. (JL) -

STATUS QUO - STATUS QUO - Live At The BBC (1966-2005) (2CD) - LISTENprice: 75,00 PLN / 18,75 EUR
Excellent two-disc CD containing 32 recordings by the band made in studios or on stage for BBC stations in 1966-2005. 2 tracks were made still under the name The Spectres, while among the compositions recorded in the pop-psychedelic period (1967-1969) there are many that did not make it onto the main albums. For me the hard-progressive tracks from 1970-73 came off spectacularly - including an excellent concert from March 1973 promoting the LP Piledriver released at the time. Recommended! -
STATUS QUO - Status Quo - Pictures Of Matchstick Men (2CD) - Expanded BMG Editionprice: 50,00 PLN / 12,50 EUR
A great, two-disc compilation of 28 recordings concentrating on the band's very early period (1968-1971) — before it became a symbol of boogie rock and hard rock of the 70s. The material presented here will surprise people who know Status Quo only from later hits such as 'Roll Over Lay Down', 'Rockin’ All Over The World' or 'Whatever You Want'. The hit 'Pictures Of Matchstick Men' is classic, almost Beatles-like psych-pop-rock — fuzzy guitars, psychedelic effects and a very catchy melody. In "Ice In The Sun" or "Technicolor Dreams" you can again hear the influence of British psychedelia of the The Move kind or early Pink Floyd. At the same time, in the recordings after 1969 more raw, riff-driven playing was already beginning to appear, which later became the band's trademark. It is a great document of Status Quo's transformation from a psychedelic beat band into a full-blooded boogie-rock group (inspired by The Doors from the period of the LP 'Morrison Hotel' and the forgotten Steamhammer) - still penniless. A two-disc BMG edition in a digipak.
