Aquostic II

Aquostic II – That's a Fact! is the thirty-second studio album by British rock band Status Quo, released on 21 October 2016. It is the last album to feature guitarist and vocalist Rick Parfitt, who died on 24 December 2016. Hannah Rickard, with whom Francis Rossi collaborated on their 2019 duet album We Talk Too Much, can be heard as violinist and background singer. Upon its initial announcement, Aquostic II was promoted with the subtitle "One More for the Road", taken from the title of the band's ongoing acoustic tour and one of the album's original compositions. The subtitle was changed shortly before release to the more recognisable "That's a Fact", using the name of a re-recorded track from the 1976 chart-topping album Blue For You, and reflecting the song's status as one of Aquostic II's lead songs and promotional singles. The album is the band's second - and second consecutive - acoustic record and is a direct sequel to 2014's commercially and critically successful Aquostic – Stripped Bare.
