Status Quo - Live! Deluxe Edition *Pre-Order

Recorded over 3 nights at the legendary Glasgow Apollo, Live is regarded as
one of the most classic live rock albums of the seventies. It shows Status quo
at their loudest; noisiest; and at their peak.
Live! Was the first live album that Status Quo released commercially. The
album is an amalgam of performances at the Glasgow Apollo Theatre
between 27 and the 29th October 1976, with the band deciding on the best
takes from all three nights worth of concerts. It was recorded using the Rolling
Stones’ Mobile Studio (also known as the RSM), a recording studio that was
built inside a DAF F1600 turbo truck that was once owned by the Rolling
Stones.
This 8CD version contains the original album which has been newly mastered
but contains the original mixes, as well as the rest of the shows from the 27th
,
28th and 29th October 1976 which have never before been released in their
entirety. The audio has been mixed and mastered from newly discovered
multi-track tapes (one was in a mislabelled box marked Peters and Lee)
discovered after some forensic tape library work by Andy Gamble. The audio
has been approved by Francis Rossi, who wasn’t particularly happy with the
audio quality of the first album but has since given this project his personal
seal of approval. The audio has been newly mixed from the source 24 tracks
and remastered at AVP Productions Ltd.
The 7” boxset contains new sleeve notes by Classic Rock’s Dave Ling,
chronicling the making of the record and the impact that it had on release.
The booklet is crammed with biographical information, photography and
memorabilia from the show and rounded off with a bonus article from Andy
Gamble (AVP Studios) about the mastering processes sound engineering
behind the release.
