Recognized as one of the first 'bands of the people' their ultimate aim has always been to 'send an audience home happy' which they continue to do the world over. "Status Quo" is the authorized book of personal and professional photographs of the band taken between 1966 and 2012, plus hundreds of photos of rare memorabilia all compiled by Bob Young and edited by Rossi and Parfitt. As yet another long and gruelling world tour kicks off, these two very different and individual characters, who have shared the pleasures and pains of rocking all over the world together for over four decades, now look back on their unique and outstanding careers and forward to whatever challenges the future brings. Their story has been told in many different ways and this special new book, compiled by Bob Young, their friend and associate for 38 years, is a colourful and often humorous insight into the world of Status Quo and many of the characters associated with Rossi and Parfitt, as they continue to bring their own unique brand of rock 'n' roll to millions of loyal fans around the world.
