Status Quo - In Concert, Paris Theatre, London, Britain, 3-1-1973

As I think I've mentioned previously, I'm not that much of a Statuo Quo fan. However, now that I'm being more generous in posting BBC albums from other artists, I figure I should be more generous to this band too. I know lots of people are fans, especially in Britain. So here's a BBC concert they did in 1973.

In the late 1960s, Status Quo had some success as with psychedelic music. Then musical tastes changed, and it took time for them to regain their footing. But in 1972, they released the studio album "Piledriver," cementing their new boogie shuffle sound. One song from it, "Paper Plane," was a Top Ten hit in Britain, their first one there since 1968. Although this concert took place in 1973, it was only a few months since the release of that album in late 1972.

This entire concert has been officially released on the huge box set "Live at the BBC." The sound quality is excellent.

Note that I have a new "Volume 4" to post as well. That means a 1988 BBC concert, previously "Volume 3," is now being renamed "Volume 5."

This album is 51 minutes long.

The cover photo shows band member Rick Parfitt, at some concert in 1973. I was looking for a photo of the entire band from that year, but I couldn't find much. However, I thought this one looked pretty neat, so I went with it.
