This Is Rock 'n' Roll
This Is Rock 'n' Roll is the third studio album by The Quireboys, released on 16 July 2001 through Sanctuary Records. It was the first record the band made after getting back together, and it arrived eight years after Bitter Sweet & Twisted, their previous album, which was recorded in 1993.
Within the band's story, it marks the point where the Quireboys picked up again after their gap. It sits between that 1993 record and Well Oiled in 2004, and it opened a run of albums that has carried on well into the 2020s. For anyone who loved the band's early work, it is the place to hear how they came back.
