just imagine the amount of rehearsal time that went into putting that together, then putting that performance on! This is a perfect example of why Quo are regarded as one the best live bands ever.
Status Quo..Rick Parfitt is singing. I knew him since 1978 personally and we had many parties in Amsterdam where i'm from. Also i was around 400 concerts with Access All Aereas passes since 1979 till 2014. He was a fantastic ritthem gitarplayer/singer and very humble. He passed away in 2016 Christmas Eve 😢 It hitted so hard and to know,i would never hear and see him anymore... He was only 66. I'm 63 now. And since i was 14,in 1974 became a fan,and 4 years later i met Rick. So i knew him also in privat life for almost 40 years ! Best regards from me, Amsterdam The Netherlands 🇳🇱
Yes, how can you not love Status quo? It´s basically Chuck Berry on steroids mixed with some Chicago blues and a bit of hard rock heaviness on top of it. Damn good recipe if you ask me! R.I.P Rick Parfitt.🎸
As a rabid Quo fan since I first bought Ma Kelly's Greasy Spoon sometime back in the Jurassic period (er...1970), I was blown away by the energy in this set., Quo were born to play live - this was truly magnificent. Really enjoyed your reaction, mate.
absolutely phenomenal! Their live version of Roadhouse Blues, especially from the End of the road tour, is unsurpassed. Not heard anybody else come close to them doing that, including the Doors
One of the greatest things I have ever seen. I do like Status Quo, but would not call myself a huge fan…but I am now. Just intoxicating to see a band so brilliant at what they do such an extended piece. Huge respect to the keyboard/harmonica player, what a fantastic musician he is. Rossi and Parfitt are so underrated, they are fantastic musicians and performers. Francis Rossi is always good fun…count me in as a fan now.
Jeff Rich was the drummer with Quo from 1986 til 2002. This live recording was from 1992. The bit after Jeff's solo is commonly referred to as the, 'Irish Washer Woman.' Not to mention the, 'Mexican Hat Dance!' Quo also had a hit that reached no.7 in the UK charts with their cover of, 'The Wanderer.' Then, there's, 'Marguerita Time', (reached no.3 in the UK charts), which is controversial among some fans, (and band members at the time of release), due to claims it didn't sound like Quo, (more pop/country sounding), despite it doing so well in the charts! 'Living On An Island', was another hit which reached a respectable, (but not as high a position), of no.16 in the charts. Another more gentle sounding song written and sung by Rick Parfitt. Then we go right back into their signature sound with, 'Break The Rules', another high-ranking no. 8 UK hit. A song you really ought to listen to the original version of! 'Something 'bout You Baby I Like', is another cover version which reached no. 9 in the UK. Then we get, 'The Price Of Love', which is a cover of an Everly Brothers song, before returning to, 'Roadhouse Blues.' The Chuga-Chuga-Chuga-Chuga is the infectious sound that sums up Quo's winning formula. Once you get the bug, you'll never forget it. You've got to do, 'forty-five hundred times!'
Jeff Rich is an English rock drummer, best known as a former drummer for the English rock band Status Quo. Born: 8 June 1953 (age 69 years), Hackney, London, United Kingdom Music groups: Stretch, Climax Blues Band (1983 - 1985), Status Quo (1986 - 2000)
Re 'Margarita Time' being criticised for not sounding like other Quo songs; it's kind if ironic when you remember that Quo were often ridiculed by pseudo-intellectual music snobs for their songs all apparently sounding the same! Can't win...still, given that they sold nearly120 million records, I'm sure they're crying all the way to the bank!
Always loved the Quo as I grew up during the seventies and eighties. My dad was into Beatles, Stones, Hendrix, etc. and had Quo's LP Hello! A lasting memory is when the family collectively swallowed our pride and *ALL* went to a Quo concert together for my dad's birthday (I think) when my sister and I were in our twenties. Such a great concert and such a diverse and lovely crowd (I'll never forget the big hairy biker dudes making a wall to keep the granny and her granddaughters safely bouncing up and down in front of the stage). Enjoyed it so much I bought a T-shirt which I wore with pride despite all my student friends taking the piss... hahaha! Don't think I've heard this medley before but know all of the tunes.
So tell me America, what didn't you like about these guys? You preferred the Ramones over this! Really? Huge all over the world, sold more records than the Who, had more hit singles in the UK charts than any other artist EVER, including Elvis and The Beatles!!! Yet America rejected them. Don't get it, you don't know what you missed out on. One of the best live acts ever. Very few come close to how good they are live.
As good as Quo were you don't have to make up fake facts about them. There are 37 artists that more chart hits in the UK and 3 others that had the same amount. I agree the US missed out but no need to just lie.
@@TheRagzzz Wow! you're a f*cking charmer. What's your job, customer service? away back under your rock. I stand corrected. Most hit singles for a rock band. no need to be a prick about it
@@TheRagzzz it is actually true more hits singles than any other band which surprised me which doesn't include solo artist's only one number 1 down down on bbc rock;in all over the world was number 1 in all the other charts new musical express melody maker etc same with anniversary waltz part one i have book case full fact and figures guinness book records on all sales albums they were number ten with 130 million sales some my favourite bands hardly sell anything
thanks for showing this its awesome, im a massive quo fan seen them many times live always amazing, i own everything they have ever released, do not get enough credit on the reaction scene, thanks again man
STATUS QUO make me happy!!! If I'm feeling a little down, I pick out one of their 33 studio albums, put it on the CD player and press play, then I feel a lot better. Long LIVE the QUO!!!
The Original singer was Alan Lancaster the Bass player of the original band line up. This song rocks. Quo were were heads down head banging bogie masters. No airs or graces just raw power.
Quo were brilliant. Loved them way back and still do. They are instantly recognisable whatever they're playing. Music to get you moving. If you keep still there's something wrong with you LOL And they are still playing I believe though with some changes in the lineup as people died. I mean this band first started in 1962, 60 years ago. the old rock n rock had life. Most of these songs weren't the hits that were most popular but still great.
Saw Quo in 1982 at Deeside leisure centre , since then seen AC/DC several times Maiden Anthrax, Metallica and many more bands , but there was no health and safety back then, so Status Quo remains the loudest band I've ever seen live
Of course there was 'Pictures Of Matchstick Men' that made waves on American radio... But it wasnt until Live Aid that I gotnmy first real taste of Status Quo. I was super impressed. A friend had an SQ best of sort of album, and made me a cassette copy. That got me by for a few years. Then I saw them again on an MTV broadcast of 1990s Knebworth Festival. I then became a serious fan and began collecting SQ material for real. Been a big fan ever since. Its crazy to me that, here in America, almost nobody knows them. My wife, who I was dating at the time of the 1990 festival, is just now catching on to their greatness. 34 years ago that was. Ive had albums, CDs, VHS, DVDs, books, posters, bumper stickers, etc... And she is just now catching on to how great they are. Its always been something in the background to her...and then it just hit her like freight train one day.
Is there anybody out there that wants to rock? Is there anybody out there that wants to roll? And is there anybody out there that wants to boogie? Tonight, live from the Apollo Glasgow, We have the number one rock'n' roll band in the land. Will you welcome, the magnificent, STATUS...QUOOOOOOOOOOOO. The best intro on a live album..... Ever.
This looks like Knebworth 1991, i was at this gig and the whole day was amazing. Quo is one of my favourite bands and they was great on the day, they should have headlined.
I can say the same,,! I 1st heard the quo back when I was a kid in the 70s,! Born 23rd May 1968, I liked the quo from then,! & if you don't mind me saying, my late gran liked the quo as well,! God Bless from northern Ireland UK 🤝🇬🇧
@@garyferrari1366 hi mate , dam I was a 8 year old in 1976,, 😁 , you was a 16 year old back then, so your 62 years young now ,! God Bless mate ,,! Just wish we could go back then too the 70s again,! Am just an old 54 year old guy, 😁 , again God Bless mate , have a whisky on me, as I drink on a Friday, God Bless mate ,,!
This was indeed a great memory. First heard Quo when Pictures of Matchstick men was released in early 1968, when I was just turned 10 and liked what I heard. My music consumption then was via Top Of The Pops and radio and it was a long time before I became totally hooked on buying records, going to gigs etc. Eventually saw Quo live around 50 times (lost count although I know many people have seen them many more times than I have!) When they announced the acoustic tour due to Rick's health I decided to skip seeing them and haven't seen them since. For me, Rick was the driving force, the heartbeat of the band and without him it just isn't the same. RIP Rick.

Roadhouse Blues was a big song for the Doors and later in the 80's Blue Oyster Cult did it. One of those songs just seems to rock no matter who plays it.
Hi there ' i was at that concert at sutton park west midlands uk a it was me that started off the chanting & also i got the eye glass look from rossi . ive seen quo every year since 1977 pure ROCK & ROLL.
Status Quo 130m record sales worldwide. Just a shame North America chose to ignore them. Mainly down to poor management & a serious lack of airplay. They were never given a chance. One of the best Live bands ever 👍🎸
I saw you smiling from ear to ear, wasnt it great. I am so glad that I almost was there from the beginning when the Rock and Roll started. stil my favo music allong with some balades and also some Gospel. we got almost al their cd's
So great to see an American into Status Quo, when they didn't make it over there. Why was that? Just straight forward head banging good time rock and roll, which doesn't take itself too seriously. Music to have a party with. Such a pity that some of them are no longer with us. But maybe you youngsters can learn a thing or two and get back to basics, if the suits will let you. It has been done before. Fight for your right to rock! (In Britain, we pronounce it, Stay tus Quo).
Yes Quo are the greatest band ever and the greatest live band ever to exist. I've been a fan for 50 years now and they're still going, maybe no for much longer but their music will live on forever.
I will like this video even before I watch it.. ;) This is an amazing medley and also video! Cheers from Sweden! And that "country-version" is their Top2 hit Marguerita Time from 1983 (followed by the beautiful "Living on an Island" from 1979).. ;)
Sadly Rick Parfit passed away a few years ago Rick was the blond guy. There are a few others in the band Alan Lancaster past away last year he was the original bass player was Alan Lancaster was the original base player and singer and John Coghlan was the drummer I seen the original line up in Dublin and the new line up in Antrim County Antrim
Do you have ears 😂 brilliant all i can say is some people dont really listen they only hear , awesome band and i think the longest touring band in the world
If you want to see status quo in America watch "young and moody Caroline" the young is Bob Young quo's manager Moody is Mick Moody I think out of White snake they toured around USA it's played how it was 1st written as a country blues song the video is all still pics of the tour. Also listen to Quo at their best "slow train" from their Quo, Quo album. Great Chanel keep posting
Can you believe the BBC announced they would no longer play Quo songs in 1996... Since when did ANY radio station do that... to any band... and if they did... to one with the status/history of Quo! I never understood that decision!
Roadhouse was originally written and recorded by The Doors, Jim Morrison ( Doors lead singer) apparently heard them doing this live at the Whisky and said that they were good but just too damn loud. Now whether that's true I don't know, but Quos's version Rocks more than the Doors!
They are technically average to good , at their best. However of all the great bands of our times, they are without a doubt the best entertainment you could possibly want. Especially live.
A friend of mine jammed with Francis when the band was touring in Australia in the late 70s. He said Francis was a much better guitarist than he ever showed playing with band
I am a status quo fan for over 50 years.(pronounced stay-tus quo) Roadhouse Blues was originally done by The Doors but Status Quo did a more rockier version
Seen Quo at Liverpool Racecourse, night before the Grand National,stage was infront of RED RUMS statue, it was a brilliant show,all their songs and some more, Brilliant guys brilliant band when you consider they were always put down as a 4 chord band, they made their own niche in the ROCK world and no one comes close, come a looooog way since "MATCHSTICKMEN", glad they dumped the glamPOPshit their management forced them into for DENIM+ROCK great vid H.C.R.
my friend Charlie Coyle is 82 and still listens to them with his hearing aids turned up full
Great choice my friend, I'm 61 been a Quo fan for 51 of em love this bad old school R&B
just imagine the amount of rehearsal time that went into putting that together, then putting that performance on! This is a perfect example of why Quo are regarded as one the best live bands ever.
They are that experiecend to do just this every day, since the 60s and growing more rocking in early 70s.. ;)
And a big bag of cocaine❤👌
The best band in The world ❤
Can't imagine actually being there to experience that mind blowing performance. Unforgettable......just WOW!!!

I've seen Quo every year since 1986, I understand what you mean by your face hurting so much from smiling, they are awesome.
Watching this, oh god how i miss a quo concert. This is superb.
They NEVER really made in America for some unknown reason, But the REST OF THE WORLD enjoyed 'The Quo' 🎸😎☺
Best live version is on the Quo Live album recorded in Glasgow 🏴🏴🏴

Brilliant band live
Son increíbles
Loved from the start, when I was foot loose and fancy free. Now with wrinkles ect have the first album, its my treasure. GO QUO
The first riff I ever learned to play! Roadhouse Blues is great - It's a Doors cover, but I prefer the Quo version.
Live- can't beat roadhouse!!
The best set ever.
Also please try there "4500 times", it's a 70s and 80s and 90s classic well over 15-20 minutes Live.. ;)

There are a few others in the band Alan Lancaster past away last year he was the original bass player was Alan Lancaster was the original base player and singer and John Coghlan was the drummer I seen the original line up in Dublin and the new line up in Antrim County Antrim
... they have sold more than 118 million Records over the years.
Hi friend. Have you checked out Quo, 4500 times, live at Milton keynes. A must. Luv yer channel.
This is one off the Best songs from Status Quo 🎸🎸🎸🇬🇧🇬🇧🎤 The Original is from The Doors ........Roadhouse Blues 🇺🇸
They didn't really need to rehearse that is why they are great band just pure talent
Did they ever have time to rehearse between all the shows?
OMG Rick Parfitt is an awesome singer. R.I.P Rick and Alan xx
Brilliant track!!! Fantastic reaction! You have to do Forty-Five Hundred Times Live Birmingham N.E.C sublime performance 👌🏻
The Apollo Glasgow was the better version, late 1976, on their QUO LIVE! album.
@@alanstrom2221 I prefer the 82 NEC to 76 Glasgow version.
Amazing stuff.
Do you have ears 😂 brilliant all i can say is some people dont really listen they only hear , awesome band and i think the longest touring band in the world
You have to react to 4500 times on Milton Keynes live!!
I also hope he wlil..!
Quo were the greatest live act in the 90s
Status Quo are similar in a lot of ways to AC/DC. Like Chuck Berry but louder. A lot louder.
God bless you sweetheart mate RIP Rick
You must of heard of the American band called the doors, well that was the original and where you probably heard it before.
Brilliant
The doors to start with 😊 and then.....😊
Roadhouse blues , was a Doors song originally I believe
If you want to see status quo in America watch "young and moody Caroline" the young is Bob Young quo's manager Moody is Mick Moody I think out of White snake they toured around USA it's played how it was 1st written as a country blues song the video is all still pics of the tour. Also listen to Quo at their best "slow train" from their Quo, Quo album. Great Chanel keep posting
Quo-oooooh-oh-oh
Danke
super
get your headphones on, turn volume up and stomp out.
Can you believe the BBC announced they would no longer play Quo songs in 1996... Since when did ANY radio station do that... to any band... and if they did... to one with the status/history of Quo! I never understood that decision!
BBB.......Philistines.
Roadhouse was originally written and recorded by The Doors, Jim Morrison ( Doors lead singer) apparently heard them doing this live at the Whisky and said that they were good but just too damn loud. Now whether that's true I don't know, but Quos's version Rocks more than the Doors!
RIP Ricky Boy Parfitt❤
Awesome
Definitely speeding 😜
They are technically average to good , at their best. However of all the great bands of our times, they are without a doubt the best entertainment you could possibly want. Especially live.
A friend of mine jammed with Francis when the band was touring in Australia in the late 70s. He said Francis was a much better guitarist than he ever showed playing with band
Frantoc four reunion! Original line-,up! Lawdy mama!
Where can i see all Status Quo with you ??.m Seen them about 80 times live .
Not the same without Alan Lancaster's bluesy voice.
I am a status quo fan for over 50 years.(pronounced stay-tus quo) Roadhouse Blues was originally done by The Doors but Status Quo did a more rockier version
Talking of Chuck Berry they do a mean version of Johnny B Good!
They used to out on a great live show😅
RIP Rick Parfit,
You will luv 4500 times Wembley please play
Where is this concert from and what year and is it officially released on DVD?🕺🎸🥁👌
Seen Quo at Liverpool Racecourse, night before the Grand National,stage was infront of RED RUMS statue, it was a brilliant show,all their songs and some more, Brilliant guys brilliant band when you consider they were always put down as a 4 chord band, they made their own niche in the ROCK world and no one comes close, come a looooog way since "MATCHSTICKMEN", glad they dumped the glamPOPshit their management forced them into for DENIM+ROCK great vid H.C.R.
