STATUS QUO - Rufus Publications Announces "Portraits Of Status Quo" Book; Video Trailer
Rufus Publications has announced the release of the new book, Portraits Of Status Quo. A video trailer can be viewed below.
Portraits Of Status Quo is a photographic celebration of the glory years of Status Quo through the ’70s and into the mid-’80s. Starting life in the early 1960s, after a series of line-up and name changes, the band became Status Quo in 1969. It was in the early ’70s that the band moved away from their psychedelic 60s roots and became a full on hard rock/boogie machine with a stream of successful albums and singles. Along with a change to their sound, came a change in image, moving into faded denim and t-shirts, creating their iconic ’70s look. With more than 60 chart hits in the UK, Quo are one of the most successful hard rock bands of the ’70s and ’80s.
The book features hundreds of classic and unseen, carefully restored black and white images of Quo at play and playing live on a series of stunning, unforgettable tours. The book concentrates on the ’70s and finishes with the band at Live Aid in 1985. Contributing photographers include PG Brunelli, Chris Walter, Fin Costello, Barry Plummer, Michael Putland and more.
