Where this album fits
- Career context
- Released on December 23, 2003, 'Riffs' was a compilation album marking a period of resurgence for Status Quo, following their successful tour in the early 2000s. This album came after their previous studio release, 'Heavy Traffic,' which had helped revitalize their presence in the rock scene. By this point, the band was celebrating over three decades of music and solidifying their legacy as stalwarts of boogie rock.
