Status Quo Live at the BBC is series of releases by English rock band Status Quo, issued by Universal Music on 24 October 2010. The release was available on a range of formats: 2-CD 'best of' collection, 4-CD box set and a limited edition collectors' 8-disc (7 CDs + 1 DVD) complete set.

About[]

Representing the last set of unreleased recordings in the Status Quo catalogue, the collection was collated not just from all of the BBC-owned Status Quo recordings that still exist in the archive, but also by inviting contributions from fans. Fans contributed home recordings of broadcasts that were wiped by BBC.^[1]
