Chronologie
Aquostic – Stripped Bare (2014)	Aquostic II – That’s a Fact!	Backbone (2019)

Aquostic II – That’s a Fact! ist das 2016 veröffentlichte 32. Studioalbum der britischen Rockband Status Quo. Es ist das letzte mit Rhythmusgitarrist Rick Parfitt.

Produktion

[Bearbeiten | Quelltext bearbeiten]

Das Album wurde mit Produzent Mike Paxman eingespielt. Das Album ist das zweite Akustikalbum der Band in Folge nach Aquostic – Stripped Bare (2014). Wie beim Vorgänger werden meist ältere Status-Quo-Songs akustisch gespielt, teils in speziellen (Re-)Arrangements. Dabei werden weiblicher Hintergrundgesang und teils klassische Instrumente verwendet. Hannah Rickard, mit der Francis Rossi 2019 dann auf ihrem Duettalbum We Talk Too Much zusammenarbeitete,^[1] ist als Geigerin und Hintergrundsängerin zu hören.

Rezension

[Bearbeiten | Quelltext bearbeiten]

David Quantick schrieb für das Magazin Classic Rock:

The Aquostic album saw them performing their back catalogue with a minimal line-up featuring accordions and backing vocals, and it worked brilliantly, highlighting Quo’s rootsier side (and Rossi’s odd knack of writing folky boogie songs).

Now they return with a very literal and almost chronological follow-up. The results are just as effective, and a continuity is established between newer songs like Jam Side Down with old chaps like Roll Over Lay Down. The results are never less than delightful to the ear.^[2]
