The Clasch

The Lamb Lies Down on Broadway (50th Anniversary Super Deluxe Edition) will provide a deep dive into the music and visual elements around this seminal album and pivotal period of time for the band. The album was the pinnacle of the band’s early success and is regarded as one of the most important progressive rock records of all time.

Status Quo are one of Britain's longest-running bands, staying together for over six decades. During much of that time, the group was only successful in the U.K., where they racked up a string of Top Ten singles over the decades. In America, the Quo were ignored after they abandoned psychedelia for heavy boogie rock in the early '70s. Before that, the band managed to reach number 12 in the U.S. with the psychedelic classic "Pictures of Matchstick Men" (a Top Ten hit in the U.K.). Following that single, the group suffered a lean period for the next few years before the bandmembers decided to refashion themselves as a hard rock boogie band in 1970 with their Ma Kelly's Greasy Spoon album.
