Artist: STATUS QUO
Album: "FAMOUS IN THE LAST CENTURY REMASTERED (CD)"

Year: 2000/ 2006
Media type: CD

Famous in the Last Century is an album by the British rock band Status Quo, released in 2000 to largely negative reviews. According to the band's autobiography, the idea to record it came from their manager David Walker, who said that they should celebrate the millennium with an album containing twenty of their favourite hits from the last century. To quote leader Francis Rossi, 'Or, put another way, another bloody covers album! We went along with it, as usual, but inside I felt like a fraud...for me it was the worst Quo album there had ever been - or ever will be!'

Ironically it still reached No. 19 in the UK Albums Chart, a better position than the previous Status Quo album of mainly original material, Under the Influence. Two singles from it, "Mony Mony" and "Old Time Rock and Roll", were minor hits.
