Product Description
Contents Introduction A new solo album from Francis Rossi, singer and guitarist of the legendary British band Status Quo, who have been active for half a century, is here! A driving 8-beat rhythm, undulating guitar, and a groove that makes your body move naturally. This must-listen rock album features members of Status Quo as well! Formed in the late 1960s, Status Quo went through a psychedelic period before establishing their unique boogie-rock style. Starting with "Pictures of Matchstick Men," they produced countless hit songs such as "Down Down," "Rockin' All Over The World," and "Whatever You Want," establishing themselves as a national rock band in Britain. One of the bands with the most entries on the UK Singles Chart, Status Quo is a unique presence in British rock history in terms of live performances, hit songs, and consistent style. Now, their singer and guitarist, Francis Rossi, is releasing a new solo album. Titled "The Accidental," this album differs from the acoustic lyricism and introspection seen in his previous solo works, instead exploding with an electric, live-performance-oriented sound. While mature, it's by no means a gentle album. Featuring John "Rhino" Edwards and Leon Cave, the backbone of Status Quo, this album starts off at full throttle. Stomping 8-beats, undulating guitars, and grooves that make your body react naturally. This energetic work contains many parts reminiscent of the golden age of Status Quo. A man who has carried the history of British rock on his shoulders has chosen to move forward again, and this is a must-listen for Status Quo fans and rock lovers alike!
