Rock Box 1973 - 1979 The Complete Recordings

Description

Suzi Quatro is a legend and a feminist icon who broke down barriers in a music genre then dominated by men in the 1970s. In a career spanning fifty years, she has sold over 50 million records worldwide, with 18 studio albums and 63 singles. She made a sensational entry onto the rock scene in 1973 with the UK number one hit, "Can the Can", followed by a string of successes such as "48 Crash", "Daytona Demon", "Devil Gate Drive", "The Wild One" and "If You Can't Give Me Love", among many others. Throughout her career, she has inspired generations of female artists, notably Joan Jett, Tina Weymouth (Talking Heads/Tom Tom Club), Chrissie Hynde (The Pretenders) and The Go-Go's, and continues to influence contemporary artists like KT Tunstall. She has also led a diverse career as an actress and presenter, from her iconic role as Leather Tuscadero in the 1970s sitcom, Happy Days, to her stage appearances in Annie Get Your Gun, as well as hosting television and radio shows for the BBC, and her induction into the Michigan Rock and Roll Hall of Fame. Suzi continues to record and perform on tour and will return to the stage as a headliner at the London Palladium on April 15, 2026, before embarking on a full tour in the UK and internationally throughout 2026. She will also release a new album in April, titled "Freedom". This eight-disc clamshell box set brings together her six studio albums and one live album recorded between 1973 and 1979, and includes a DVD with a selection of promotional clips, performances on the show Top of the Pops and a concert recorded in Japan in 1975. A 56-page booklet completes the box set, containing exclusive personal memories from Suzi and guitarist Len Tuckey, as well as a biography written by Dave Simpson of the Guardian.
