1990 single by Status Quo
"The Anniversary Waltz" is the title of two medley singles released in 1990 by English rock band Status Quo.[1] The medleys consist of hit songs from the 1950s, 1960s, and 1970s. One of the songs performed, Dion`s "The Wanderer" had previously been covered by Status Quo in 1984. "The Anniversary Waltz" was divided into two parts for release as a single. Part One was the bigger hit, reaching number two on the UK Singles Chart, and was included on their 1990 compilation album Rocking All Over the Years.
The sleeves for all formats feature the legend `It`s Live Sonny` which was included (together with a small sketch of a rabbit) in answer to critics who had likened the Anniversary Waltz to previous releases by Jive Bunny.[citation needed] The first batch contained two photos of Rick Parfitt instead of one of Parfitt and one of Jeff Rich.[citation needed] Due to a pressing error, some 12 inch copies included live versions of "Little Lady" and "Paper Plane"; these were intended to be B-sides of the cancelled release of the re-mixed version of "The Power of Rock".[citation needed]
