Ik zag dat deze bazen nog geen topic hadden Heerlijke muziek om met een koud biertje snoeihard te draaien Ook erg fijn voor in de auto. Ik vind met name hun oude werk prachtig toen er nog echt gerockt werd. Deze albums zijn essentieel:

Piledriver (1972)
Hello! (1973)
Quo (1974)
On the Level (1975)
Blue for You (1976)
Rockin' All over the World (1977)

Verschrikkelijke kutband, maar ja... da's mijn mening!

Geweldige band !!! Helaas na 1982 opgehouden te bestaan.....

Ik vind die twee bluesy platen die hiervoor zitten ook heel goed:

Ma Kelly's Greasy Spoon (1970)
Dog Of Two Head (1971)

Fijn spul, dat ouwe werk, lekkere stampers hebben ze gemaakt, lijkt me duidelijk.

Dat you're in the army now, het zal best goed verkocht hebben, maar wat vond ik dat erg toen dat uitkwam, zeg.

Die titel van die plaat van een tijdje terug: In search of the fourth chord. Redelijk hilarisch, hehe.

Die is ook erg fijn ja

Gaaf spul!

Ik heb er alleen niets van. Toch even actiever opzoek naar 2e hands vinyl.

Ik vind zelfs die Picturesque messages from the matchstick man of iets dergelijks gaaf. Bolland en Bolland hebben de band flink vernacheld inderdaad, maar ik vond Rocking all over the world ook al knap oubollig eerlijk gezegd.

Die nummers doen het ook altijd goed in de feesttent met slechte coverbands als Bertus Staigerpaip of WC Experience. Een ellendige NL-tekst er overheen, bult drank in de botten en höken maar. En met een beetje mazzel nog zo'n lekkere blonde boerin met een dikke kont op de bek pakken.

Dit is echt zo'n vet nummer, wat een riffs!

Waarom kom ik er vandaag pas achter dat Quo begin volgend jaar in originele bezetting gaat touren en opnemen ? Hoe dan ook......

http://classicrockfestival.weblog.nl/status-quo/status-quo-terug-in-originele-bezetting/

Een oude en een nieuwe quo. Hehehe, net als normaal. Waarom ook niet.

We are delighted to announce that Francis Rossi, Rick Parfitt, Alan Lancaster and John Coghlan, the original band line-up, are reforming for a one-off, never to be repeated series of UK dates in March 2013.

Tickets will be on sale to fans from this site only on November 13th - and will go on general sale at 0900 on Friday 16th November 2012.

Status Quo manager Simon Porter said, “People have wanted this announcement to be made for years, and here it is. This is a real moment in the chequered history of Status Quo and it comes after almost 30 years of acrimony, and 10 years of law suits and court battles. Just 2 years ago the thought of the Frantic Four performing again was unthinkable. Now, 50 years on from when Francis and Alan first performed together as schoolboys, it is fitting that everything has come full circle for these unique one-off shows.

More details, including the likely contents of the set, will be announced by the band themselves at the Classic Rock Awards on 13th November 2012.

MARCH 2013
Sunday 10th - Glasgow 02 Academy
Tuesday 12th - Manchester 02 Apollo
Wednesday 13th - Wolverhampton Civic
Friday 15th - London, Hammersmith Apollo
Saturday 16th - London, Hammersmith Apollo

De gezondheid begint bij steeds meer oudjes op te spelen.

Het wordt er niet beter op.

RICK PARFITT OF STATUS QUO SUFFERS HEART ATTACK AFTER TURKEY GIG

In the early hours of Wednesday 15th June 2016, following the Status Quo gig at Expo 2016 in Antalya, Turkey, Rick Parfitt suffered a suspected heart attack.

He is being treated in a hospital in Turkey and whilst his condition is serious, he has already demanded his customary cup of tea with two sugars and a sweetener.

The band had already agreed to perform at the Rock On Windermere charity show on Saturday 18th June to raise funds for the Cumbria Flood Appeal. Rick and the band did not want to cancel this important show and so it will go ahead with Freddie Edwards, the son of Quo bassist John "Rhino" Edwards, stepping in for Rick.

It is likely that Freddie will stay with the band to allow them to honour their commitments and not let down the fans up to and including the show on Sunday 3rd July at Gröna Lund Tivoli, in Stockholm, Sweden.

Simon Porter, the band's manager said: "No further comment will be made at this stage until the completion of the next round of tests and assessments to be made over the next few days. We would ask you to respect the family's privacy at this difficult time."

Rick has a history of heart trouble and following a heart attack in 1997 he had a quadruple heart bypass, when he was told by doctors that he could die "at any time" unless he changed his lifestyle of smoking and drinking. He suffered another heart attack in December 2011 and underwent surgery on the following day. On 1st August 2014, while on a European tour with Status Quo, he was hospitalised in Pula, Croatia, forcing the cancellation of six shows on the tour.

This isn't the first time that Freddie Edwards has substituted for Parfitt having previously done so at the band's Clumber Park show in August 2014 after Rick was hospitalised in Croatia. This was the first ever Quo show that Rick had missed since joining the band in 1967.

Freddie Edwards later appeared alongside Rick Parfitt and the rest of Quo on their 'Aquostic' album, the band's first complexly acoustic album, and the subsequent tour.

Following a final high profile European tour, which will start in October and include UK dates in December 2016, Status Quo have announced an end to their electric tours. Named the "Last Night Of The Electrics Tour", the band will plug back in and bring their thunderous electric live show back to the nation's venues for the last time.

Packed with hits, both new and old, taken from that unbelievable back catalogue, if you love Status Quo, you need to be there; if you've never before seen this truly legendary act play a full full-throttle no-nonsense electric set, you need to be there!

These final electric tour dates will truly be the end of an era as Status Quo turn their back on constantly touring their fabled electric live set. Since first charting in 1967 the band have become a truly iconic and massively influential rock act.
