Francis Rossi – King Of The Doghouse / Virgin Audio CD 1996
UPC 724384220129
King of the Doghouse is the first solo album by Francis Rossi, best known as the front man in the English rock band Status Quo, which was released in 1996. It was recorded between the release of the band's 1996 Don't Stop 30th anniversary covers album and the recording of their 1999 Under the Influence album. The album was commercially unsuccessful, but is now widely considered to have been overlooked at the time.
Francis Rossi later said that he likes the album but wishes he had kept control of the production process, since many of the versions and mixes that were eventually chosen were not the "right" ones, according to him.
Most of the songs have been written by Tony McAnaney, although some of Rossi's own songs were presented. McAnaney is renowned for his BBC soundtracks, e.g. for Crocodile Shoes.
