STATUS QUO ~ 1969
SPARE PARTS
Коллекция LP


За синглом «Are you Growing Tired of My Love» (поднявшимся лишь до 46 места в Британии) последовал второй альбом "Spare Parts", возможно, самый слабый в истории группы (музыканты не раз впоследствии говорили, что стыдятся его). Во многом провал был предопределён политикой лейбла Pye Records, который потребовал от Status Quo немедленного повторения того успеха, который имели в чартах два сингла из первой пластинки. Альбом оказался во всех отношениях неудачным и участники группы предприняли радикальный шаг к ужесточению звука. Заодно они избавились от психоделических фасонов с оборочками, отрастили длинные волосы и облачились в джинсы, создав закрепившийся за ними на долгие годы имидж простых парней с добродушными ухмылками. В 1969 году гастрольным менеджером Status Quo стал Боб Янг: вскоре он и в качестве соавтора приступил к работе над материалом для третьего альбома, а впоследствии стал важным творческим элементом в коллективе.

"Spare Parts" is the second album by the English rock band Status Quo, and the final one in the psychedelic vein. It is also the first in which the group's roadie Bob Young began writing and co-writing songs for and with the band.

The album covers a number of songs by Carole King, including "You're Just What I Was Looking for Today", and "Velvet Curtains".

Only one song was slated for a single release. This was a cover of the Carole King song "Are You Growing Tired of My Love", backed with the Alan Lancaster composition "So Ends Another Life". Released in April 1969, only two months after their previous single "Make Me Stay a Bit Longer", the single was a failure, only reaching #46.

The album was released in September 1969 and, like its single, flopped.

Following the disappointment of the album, the band released a non-album single - the Everly Brothers' "The Price of Love", also released in September 1969, with the Francis Rossi & Rick Parfitt composition "Little Miss Nothing" as the b-side - which was also a commercial failure.


Status Quo's second album, "Spare Parts", was released in August 1969, hot off the back of "Picturesque Matchstickable Messages" (originally on Pye NSPL18301). Spare Parts was the second album released by Quo and is now re-issued on Castle Communications.
