Advantages: Unpretensiously enjoyable.

Disadvantages: A lot of it does sound the same.

“Whatever You Want”: The Very Best of Status Quo.

I don't care what anyone thinks: I like Status Quo. Well, I like SOME of Status Quo. Probably nothing they’ve done for the last 15 years, but that still leaves 20 years of solid unpretentious music to choose from, even if (yes, I admit it) a lot of it does sound the same. True, “Down, Down” and “What You’re Proposing” probably wouldn't make it onto the list I took onto Desert Island Discs if by some mischance I ever appeared on it, but I’d be sorry if I never heard them again, or some of the other songs on disc one of this double-CD set. Disc two features songs from the last fifteen years, so I don't care much for any of it, even for their medleys of Chuck Berry and other greats. In fact, the medleys sound as if they recorded them in their sleep. Maybe they did, but I don't care: they weren't asleep a couple of decades back and that's the important thing.
