About Ma Kelly’s Greasy Spoon
Ma Kelly’s Greasy Spoon is the third album by Status Quo, first released in 1970 on the Pye label. It marked a turning point in the band’s musical style, as they ditched the Psychedelic Pop of the previous two albums, and went in the direction of Rock and Blues. As on the last two albums, Ma Kelly’s Greasy Spoon was produced by John Schroeder.
