Status Quo – Riffs

Released in 2003, Riffs finds Status Quo celebrating the music that influenced their career while revisiting some of their own best-known songs. Blending energetic cover versions with fresh recordings of classic Quo favourites, the album delivers the band's trademark boogie-rock sound with plenty of enthusiasm and guitar-driven power.

The covers selection pays tribute to artists and songs that helped shape the band's musical identity, including spirited takes on I Fought The Law, Born To Be Wild, Takin' Care Of Business, On The Road Again and All Day And All Of The Night. Alongside these are newly recorded versions of classic Status Quo tracks such as Caroline, Down The Dustpipe, Junior's Wailing, Whatever You Want and Rockin' All Over The World.

The accompanying bonus DVD captures the band in concert, showcasing their reputation as one of Britain's most enduring live acts with performances of fan favourites spanning their long career.
