Suzi Quatro

It s got to be a very special release that has Suzi Quatro announce proudly: The Devil In Me is the best album in my career to date! After all, the American rock vocalist would hardly utter such superlatives lightly. Suzi s enthusiasm for her latest offering has many reasons, twelve of them to be precise. Because The Devil In Me consists of exactly a dozen songs, each of them from the opening track and title song to the final Motor City Riders a real highlight. The reasons for Suzi s remarkable creative explosion: on the one hand the lockdown, which kept her from her usual touring life in spring 2020, and on the other another collaboration with her son Richard Tuckey, which had already worked out extremely well on her predecessor album No Control.

Thorough retrospective with 32 of the best tracks she cut for the Bell, Big Tree and RSO labels, including all of her U.S. chart hits for these labels: her top five collaboration with Chris Norman, 'Stumblin' In', plus 'She's In Love With You', 'I've Never Been In Love', 'If You Can't Give Me Love', 'Can The Can' and 'All Shook Up'.

Suzi Quatro was hardly the first Tough Girl in rock & roll – there were plenty of precursors, from Wanda Jackson and the Shangri-Las to Grace Slick and Janis Joplin – but Quatro codified a type of rock & roll woman who didn't exist before she took the stage, one who looked as tough as the guys and wasn't merely a singer but also an instrumentalist, the leader of the band who made the noise right along with the rest of the group. With her trademark leather jumpsuit and big bass guitar (which seemed even bigger given her diminutive stature of just five feet), Quatro created a new and potent image for women in rock, one that spoke of both strength and sexiness, and she became a major international star in the '70s, though it would take a while before she was as readily recognized in the United States as in the United Kingdom.

Susan Kay Quatro (born June 3, 1950) is an American rock singer-songwriter, multi-instrumentalist and actress. She was the first female bass player to become a major rock star…

Oh Suzi Q. is the tenth solo studio album by the rock singer-songwriter and bass guitarist Suzi Quatro. It was originally released in 1990, by the record labels Generation Record, and Bellaphon. The album was her last recording of original material for five years, until she released What Goes Around - Greatest & Latest in 1995. It is also notably the first album not to feature her long-time guitarist and then-husband Len Tuckey, whom she would divorce in 1992.
