I missed out on the mini LP SHM-CDs that were released several years for this band, Status Quo. However, this collection helps make up for that loss! This MQA CD contains mostly the best of Status Quo's upbeat and fast-paced rock songs that I love, so this will definitely be my go to disc instead of the individual CD releases. Plus, the mastering here on this MQA CD sounds better than the US standard CDs I have in my collection. Overall, a fantastic release from a very underrated band.

Description
Reissue in Hi-Res CD format (UHQCD format x MQA technology). Features the DSD master in 2020, using UK original master tapes. The DSD master is available in 352.8kHz/24bit high resolution (perfect for MQA-enabled audio players / not digitally distributed up to this time). The mini LP faithfully replicates its UK first pressing LP design (gatefold). Comes with lyrics and a description. Green color label coating. Available as cardboard sleeve packaging for the first time. *The disc can also be played on regular CD players in UHQCD 44.1kHz/16bit resolution. However, MQA-enabled hardware/software is necessary to harness the full potential of this Hi-Res CD.

this is a great sounding UHQCD japan only remastered cd of this classic quo compilation from 1980, the sound on this disc is very tight but it still delivers, ive been a quo fan for many decades and im glad this release got this japan treatment along with the original japan lp replication, i wish the rest of those double cd deluxe editions got the japan treatment some years back when they did a few of them in japan in shm remastering but as of this date they stopped and did not do the rest of them, anyway im glad 12 gold bars came out in this format, very happy with this...
The essential compilation that covers all you need to know about the 'Quo' It is however straight ahead 'rock n roll' both in its musical style and recording quality with most tracks having very little in the way of hidden 'detail' that the MQA high resolution format can reveal(with the exception of 'Living on an island" which sounds glorious)....But none of that matters as its a fantastic album sounding the best I've ever heard it and I'm totally thrilled to have it back in my collection after long ago wearing out my old LP copy purchased in 1980...so yes MQA 'brings it' and R'n'R will never die!!!
