Introduction

Our aim has been to produce, for the first time, a fully illustrated guide to the UK vinyl records released by Status Quo. Complemented by promotional copies, test pressings and acetates, contemporary adverts and reviews (not always too kind) we aim to cover each variation of the discs and sleeves available. You may well have something to add - if so, please send us a scan. We welcome any additions and feedback via the new contact page. See here for the latest updates and credits.

When we launched, our focus was on the 7" singles pages covering all UK releases. Since then, we have added the complete set of UK vinyl albums as well - a significant task as you will see. There are plans to add more sections so enjoy the pages that are here, but check back regularly for updates.

[Latest update - 28th November 2020]
