Best Place To Spend Your Cash On Early "Quo"
"The Woj" | Downers Grove, IL | 07/31/2004
(5 out of 5 stars)

"There must be nearly a dozen Status Quo cd albums featuring these songs from the earliest incarnation of the band ( there's "Early Years", "Psychedelic Years", "Singles Collection", "Down The Dustpipe", "Technicolor Dreams" to name only a few). However, none of the previously mentioned sets are as complete and sound as good as this digitally remastered 60 plus song set. The sonic pleasure of hearing Status Quo morph from a psychedelic, "flower power" band on the beginning of disc one into a kick-@ss, rock n' roll, boogie monster by the end of disc three can not be understated.

This 3 disc set is essential for any Status Quo fan, even if you have similar releases on cd (like me). Sure many of the tracks are already on "Ma Kelly's" & "Dog Of Two Head", but for 20 bucks and three cds so what! Again, to here the transformation of the band over these 3 discs is well worth the cash.

For anyone who has yet to add any Status Quo cds to their collection (shame on you), this is the set to purchase for a retrospective of their early years. If you can afford it, add "Piledriver" & "Hello" to your shopping cart too.

You'll be hooked and end up working your way down the Status Quo Discography on future purchases.
