''Blue for You'' is the ninth studio album by English rock band Status Quo, released in March 1976 and is both the last album to feature the 'Frantic Four' lineup (due to Andy Bown officially joining the band as keyboardist following its release), and the last one they produced themselves, which resulted in subsequent albums having a noticeably lighter, more pop oriented sound. Parfitt's "Rain", the first single from the album, reached #7 in the UK charts after its release in February 1976. Its b-side was the non-album track "You Lost the Love", written by Rossi and Young. The album was released the following month. It entered the British album chart at #1 and stayed there for three weeks, making it one of their most successful long players. An edited version of Parfitt and Young's "Mystery Song" was the second single from the album and, released in July that year, peaked at #11 a few months later. Parfitt and Lancaster's "Drifting Away", from their 1974 album ''Quo'', served as the single's b-side. In December that year the band decided to release a cover of "Wild Side of Life", a song made famous by ''Hank Thompson and His Brazos Valley Boys'', and written by Arlie Carter and William Warren. Its b-side was a new Rossi/Lancaster composition - "All Through the Night". The single reached #9. == Track listing == # "Is There a Better Way" (Rossi, Lancaster) - 3:31 # "Mad About the Boy" (Francis Rossi, Young) - 3:31 # "Ring of a Change" (Francis Rossi, Bob Young) - 4:15 # "Blue for You" (Alan Lancaster) - 4:08 # "Rain" (Parfitt) - 4:24 # "Rolling Home" (Francis Rossi, Alan Lancaster) - 3:01 # "That's a Fact" (Francis Rossi, Bob Young) - 4:20 # "Ease Your Mind" (Alan Lancaster) - 3:12 # "Mystery Song" (Rick Parfitt, Bob Young) - 6:44 抄文引用元・出典: フリー百科事典『 ウィキペディア（Wikipedia）』 ■ウィキペディアで「Blue for You」の詳細全文を読む スポンサード リンク
