Status Quo is one of Britain’s most enduring and loved bands, staying together for over 40 years. After initial success with ‘Pictures Of Matchstick Men’ the band struggled to make an impact and they abandoned psychedelia for heavy boogie rock in the early ’70s. Throughout the 1970s, each album Status Quo released went into the Top Five, while their consistently hit the Top Ten and frequently went gold. Since they were experiencing a great deal of success, they didn’t change their sound at all, keeping faith with the same heavy boogie. By the mid-’90s, Status Quo had scored 50 British hit singles, which was a greater number than any other band in rock & roll’s history.

STATUS QUO Picturesque Matchstickable Messages From The Status Quo (Impossibly rare DEBUT album from one of the world's best known rock bands, here in their first psychedelic incarnation, which they were soon to discard in favour of their morefamiliar sound as the album failed to chart and the follow-up Spare Parts fared as badly. The acid-induced sound makes some good use of phasing and psychedelic whimsy vocals to give a very definite 1967-68 sound. The album includes covers ofSpicks And Specks and Green Tambourine as well as the original standout tracks Black Veils OF Melancholy and Technicolor Dreams as well as the well known Pictures Of Matchstick Men, front laminated flipback picture sleeve. The sleeve shows just a little light creasing to the laminate, whilst the unlaminated reverse still remains a nice off-white & the text on the spine is clear and legible. The labels shows just light spindlewear and the vinyl itself has a smattering of light marks leaving it EX/EX- and a knockout copy! NPL18220)
