''From the Makers of...'' is a compilation album by British rock band Status Quo, released in 1982. In the era before CDs, the three-disc/double cassette album was the most comprehensive resume of the band's career at the time, containing all their top 20 hit singles up to that point and several selected album tracks. The third disc was a recording of a live concert at the National Exhibition Centre in Birmingham, England for the Prince's Trust charity: the disc was subsequently re-released as a stand-alone live album in 1984, titled ''Live at the N.E.C.'' The album's name comes from the caption that was placed on the back cover of each of the band's studio albums throughout the 1970s: ''"From the makers of..."'' followed by silhouette drawings of the covers of the albums immediately preceding that release. ''From the Makers of...'' was available in three formats: *a boxed set of three vinyl albums (catalogue number PRO LP 1) *a "Special Edition" circular metal container of the same three vinyl albums (catalogue number PRO BX 1) *a boxed set of two cassettes (catalogue number PRO MC 1) The 36 tracks are listed across four sheets (circular in the LP version), titled "HIT SINGLES AND STAGE CLASSICS in historical order", starting with "Pictures of Matchstick Men". Each title is accompanied by an appropriate picture. The final page chronicles the band's history year by year, from their beginnings in Peckham, South East London, in 1962 through to the set's release in 1982. The album reached number 4 in the UK Album Charts. ==Track Listing (LP set)== 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「From the Makers of...」の詳細全文を読む スポンサード リンク
