Status Quo - Rockin All Over The World (1977) (Remaster Edit 2005)

Image and video hosting by TinyPic

If we're honest Status Quo were mainly a singles band. But this is the one album of theirs which I return to time after time because not only does it contain several of their best songs but also because it is so consistent in its quality and has a continuity that their other albums did not have, at least from what I've heard..The opening track 'Hard Time' sets the tone. Great intro, not a single this one but it sounds like one. 'Can't Give You More' is another great album track. Not too often I can say that of a Status Quo track. And it continues from there. There is hardly a weak trackmore… on this set. And when it's good it is compulsive. Not just the great rockers here of which there are several, the two I have already mentioned, plus the rollicking 'Let's Ride' and 'Rockers Rolling' and the last track the chugging rocker that is 'Hold You Back'. And of course the title track. Which runs Abba's 'Thank You For The Music' pretty close as being The Happiest Song Ever. Certainly the Happiest Rocker! I played this one at a business conference once and the result was 200 managers standing on their seats, rocking like Crazy Monkeys! There are not many songs that could have done this. Period.The mid tempo rocker 'Dirty Water' which became a great concert favourite later. But the best version is the timeless one on this 1977 album. And then there is the ballad 'For You' which is probably second only to 'Living On An Island' (1981) as Quo's greatest in this oeuvre. Not just a three chord guitar band after all...Dichter Nebel
