Status Quo: Aquostic Stripped Bare versie op vinyl 2LP in standaard editie. Deze specifieke uitgave werd uitgebracht in Duitsland bij uitgeverij Ear Music op 17. oktober 2014.

With over 30 studio albums released worldwide and 118 million records sold, Status Quo are one of the most important English rock bands of all time. Since their formation in 1968, 22 of their hits have reached the top ten in the UK charts - more than any other group. Their last studio album "Bula Quo" (2013, ear-MUSIC) reached #17 in Germany and #13 in Switzerland. Their latest live album "The Frantic Four's Final Fling - Live At The Dublin O2 Arena" - the very last show of the original Frantic Four line-up - was released on 29.8.2014 by earMUSIC. And Status Quo are already preparing their next release - "Aquostic (Stripped Bare)" is Status Quo as no one has ever heard (or seen) them before. Hits like "Caroline", "Down Down", "Rain", "Rockin' All Over The World", "Again and Again", "Whatever You Want" and "What You're Proposing" were recorded completely new and acoustic for the album: this is Status Quo in Aquostic! And how does it all sound? Imagine Status Quo jamming with Johnny Cash and the Everly Brothers and Rick Rubin producing the whole thing... It's Status Quo, but with a twist. There's a whole new energy and verve to the recordings. Quo is a band that practices their craft much more than most, and that's why their virtuosity comes very clearly to the fore here. "Aquostic (Stripped Bare)" reflects the hours spent backstage or on the bus, going through sequences on old acoustic guitars while Telecasters waited on stage. Three chords? Whatever... just keep going! Recorded in Francis Rossi's studios, "Aquostic (Stripped Bare)" is the result of the band's quest to shed the years and evaluate everything that has happened since in a new light. "Aquostic (Stripped Bare)" is a triumphant collection of highlights from a truly influential rock band. A compilation that will change some people's minds. A compilation that will put a smile on some people's faces. A compilation to be cherished and treasured. Let Status Quo and their classics blow you away in a whole new guise - 22 hits - Aquostic - reworked and embellished with strings and choruses. Review: "'Aqoustic' delivers pleasant surprises with no real downtime - you just have to be open to accepting the new sound of old favorites." (Good Times, December 2014/January 2015)
