"Again and Again" is a single released by the British rock band Status Quo in 1978.[1] The song was written by Rick Parfitt, Andy Bown and Jackie Lynton[2] and was issued to coincide with the band's headline appearance at the Reading Festival on 26 August 1978.

The song was reprised in 2014 for the band's thirty-first studio album Aquostic (Stripped Bare). It was featured in the ninety-minute launch performance of the album at London's Roundhouse on 22 October, a concert which was recorded and broadcast live by BBC Radio 2 as part of their In Concert series.[3][4]
