I'm a clueless 58 year old yank who, until about a year ago, thought Quo was only known for Matchstick Men. Needless to say, I've found out that's what I get for thinkin. The first time in my life that I ever heard *anything* by them (with the exception of Matchstick Men), was when I checked out their reunion tour at Wembley, in 2013. I was what you folks say across the pond say...gobsmacked. Since then, I've tried my damnedest to catch up, lol. To say that I'm highly envious of you that grew up with them, is a gross understatement. RIP, Reg and rock on, Nuff, Spud and Frame. Thanks isn't enough :-)
Yes, that is correct Duncan. First World War the Americans came in very late April 6th 1917. Germany sank many American merchant ships around the British Isles which prompted the American entry into the war In early April 1917, with the toll in sunken U.S. merchant ships and civilian casualties rising, Wilson asked Congress for “a war to end all wars” that would “make the world safe for democracy.” on April 6, 1917, Congress thus voted to declare war on Germany, joining the bloody battle-then optimistically called the “Great War. Of course, if not for the attack on Pearl Harbour, 7th December 1941, the USA would've tried to avoid helping the Allies in World War Two. The Soviet Army were in Berlin 3 weeks before the USA and British Forces. There's nothing altruistic about their entry into either World War, only self-interest. The same with Korea and Vietnam and The Bay of Pigs in Cuba.
Carl Davis, I have been a massive Quo fan since I first heard Down The Dustpipe in 1969 as a 9 year old. Saw them in Sydney at the Horden Pavilion in Sydney Australia for the first time in 1975. Love their music up until the early 80's. So Mr Davis, go enjoy listening to one of the best bands to come out of the 60's and England
Still listening in 2024. This will never age. Still have my original vinyl copy which is played on a regular basis. I have had that copy for over 40 yrs. Best live album ever ! RIP Rick & Nuff.
Ich war 15 Jahre alt als dieses Album erschien.... Heute mit 57 erinnere ich mich gerne an meine tolle Jugendzeit und Status Quo gehörte damals definitiv dazu ;-) I was 15 years old when this album appeared .... Today at 57 I like to remember my great youth and Status Quo definitely belonged to it ;-)
This is number one for me. The song includes everything I think about when it come to the mighty Quo, and it is the Status Quo song I want to have in my funural (hope I still have many years to go) 🎸❤️
When my car stereo was stolen this album was in it. On my way to the police and insurance the first thing I did was stopping at the store and getting a new version of this album. Looking back it seems nuts, but back then it hurt more to have lost the album than the car stereo.
Called 4500 times... rick starts the song with his legendary black gibson...rossi layed in the sweet solo... than the song rocks away with an interlude from rossi/lancaster. The great instrumental til the end is an masterpiece, banging, pumping bass and drums, in combination with the two strong guitars.... the apollo 1976 was cooking, shakin from this great live gig. Frantic four rules
I saw Quo 3 times between 1975-77 and that will always stay with me - superb every time and I was knackered every time playing air guitar so hard with all the other fans, lol
Quo are in my blood and my soul for they are the epitome of hard rock boogie so tight I have prob heard this album 1000 time and I never tire of it or them they are my default band ...long live quo
For all those ignorant and sheltered people who've never heard this LIVE version, then they haven't heard ROCK n ROLL. there are so many successful bands such as the FOO FIGHTERS that have stolen riffs from THIS SONG AND THIS BAND.
This is one of the best live album from the 70's and to listen to it on vinyl never changes. Kiss Alive Deep Purple: Made in Japan Ritchie Blackmores Rainbow Neil Diamond: Hot August Night Peter Frampton,: Comes Alive Uriah Heep: Live Wings: Wings Over America ACDC: If You Want Blood You've Got It Queen; Queen Live Killers And best part if still have and still love listening to these vinyls albums. Long Live Rock 'no Roll.
David Dawson I was there mate, the first 30 rows in the stalls got destroyed, flattened to the ground, Quo were banned from The Empire Theatre for life 😂 when I got outside it felt like I had been swimming in the Mersey, saturated from head to foot, looked like a drowned rat on the last bus back to Kirkby 😂👍😎💪
When I was a teenager (back in the 80s) my mother put the headphones on and concentrated on this music (Hello version). Her surprise and enthusiasm were really sincere and she scored very high in her son's heart😏👍.
love the way this builds up! used to listen to this w headphones on full blast ...and the crowd chanting - almost like a holy sermon if u know what I mean , trancelike experience listening to this !
I feel incredibly privileged to have seen the original line up perform this a few times. None less so than a couple of years before Ricks' passing. He rocked it that night and it was the last time i saw him alive. 4500 times for me, together with Ma Kelky"s and Piledrjver defined my formative years. All respect.
Did ROY LYNES play on this because he was in the 'original' QUO!! Oh no, that's right, ROY left in 1971!! Too many people call THE FRANTIC FOUR the original line -up.
Streching their songs to the limit, well rehearsed, i think i must been awesome for the crowd to see al, frame,rick in front of the stage standing together and rock their instruments to the limit, with a thoundering spud behind them. Great
I'm very serious when I say that this song and this version should be taught in all schools' music classes. There are a lot of recent bands who've plagiarised the 50 plus Riffs in this performance, created by 2 of the best Guitarists in Rock history. Do I love The QUO? WTF do you think? Even without Spud and Nuff they've produced some very good quality Rock. Quid Pro Quo is a thumping awesome Rock album. I love it. LET'S ROCK!!! Bula Quo is so diverse with Ska n Reggae, Jungle and great Rock songs. In Search of the 4th Chord is brilliant and oustanding!! Heavy Traffic is 11 out of 10. CREEPIN' UP ON YOU!! I recently played both UNDER THE INFLUENCE and PARTY AIN'T OVER YET and they are very good musically and lyrically. Anybody ( critics )who says that QUO's music is all ' the same ' are talking thru their hat. BLESSED ARE THE MEEK is one thing Frame and myself can agree on. It is one of my fave songs to sing. We all know that Frame loves Country music and the aforementioned is an example of that genre executed beautifully. My fave member is ALAN LANCASTER. I've had a few vey cool experiences with Alan at gigs in Australia. Go The QUO!!!
As a 9 year old, Watching the Ch5 videos, End of the road got me hooked on Quo, It's this song and Big Fat Mama that stood out at that time then everything else upto the early 80's.
I remember this album when it came out amazing so amazing I converted a non quo fan this song is by far there best and this is an unbelievably GR8 album luv quo E
Quo as it's BEST👏What a power💪what a great audience and powerful band👏hear Rossi's guitar,he was a great Rocker👏 Best live record ever ,cheers from Dortmund ♠️💛♠️FF💖
le meilleur Live du "QUO"! j'étais à l'armée lors de la sortie de ce Best et avec les potes on l'a usé sur la platine ce double live . le "QUO" était au sommet de son art et c'était la bonne époque ! R.I.P. ALAN LANCASTER & RITCHIE PARFITT. Par contre , arrête Francis , le vrai"QUO" est mort faut y faire ,alors n'insiste pas !
there are albums you may buy twice in your life. This could be one of those :) don't have the vinyl original anymore, so let's see, if will get an actual version, think it'll be worth it.🎸😉
The Current Rossi needs to listen to some of his old albums and learn something. My God, there is nothing to compete with the frantic four. Yes, Francis, that's YOU on this track and the rest of this fantastic album, but you just cannot replicate this sound matey, because the rest of the four are missing!
At a certain juncture in QUO's history their Guitar sound changed drastically. Why didn't they point this out to their Guitar techs and say " hey, that's not the sound we had previously" It is especially evident at the beginning of DOWN DOWN. I CAN'T BE THE ONLY PERSON TO NOTICE THIS,.
As soon as they finish playing they immediately start tuning their guitars. The music industry may not call them THE GREATEST ROCK BAND OF ALL TIME, however quietly and secretly, other bands do.
This was a great Status Quo era, no medley crap, songs treated with respect and played from start to finish with ripping and sometimes ad-libbed guitar solos. However I do feel that possibly what led to frantic four demise was their live set. They found a live set that worked and never changed it. Sometimes "if it aint broke dont fix it" doesn't work. You need to keep a fresh and different live set and give all compositions dignity and respect. As a result, they have some absolute gems from their early days which have never made the stage. They certainly ran compositions like Caroline and ROLD into the ground. Have they really ever given ROLD the respect and dignity it deserves on stage? I do think if they put effort into keeping their live set fresh and different, it would have made things more interesting for them and they would lasted, perhaps, into the '90s or beyond?
T H I was a big Quo fan, had all their albums but this was the last one I bought. Just love the 60s and early 70s stuff. I am 63 now but still listen to it.
Francis Rossi being a controlling dictator is the main reason for Spud and Nuff leaving the band. Rossi's cocaine addiction had an adverse affect on the band too. A terrible song called " Marguerita Time " was another major reason for Alan leaving the band. There was money being syphoned away from the band members, that's another good reason to walk away. There's a few more reasons.............
This was my 3rd Quo record I bought, and my 3rd record overall, as a 9yr old back in 1982. I doubt that I have to explain further, but this record raped and penetrated my brain. From that moment on I wanted to become a long-haired 'freak', and from there straight to Heavy Metal.
During their 'transition' period from their psychedelic pop of the 60's, they had two hit songs in 1970. Those songs were "In My Chair" and " Down the Dustpipe" During 1970 & 1971 QUO produced 2 of their best albums. They were "Ma Kelly's Greasy Spoon" & "Dog of Two Head" Those two albums managed to sell in some European countries & Scandinavia which kept the Band afloat financially until they exploded with "Piledriver" in December 1972. For the next 10 years QUO were the best Rock Band in the Universe. Sadly Francis Rossi's Cocaine addiction saw his behaviour cause an acrimonious division within the Band of Brothers. After 20 years in the Band, John 'Spud' Coghlan left QUO, he was replaced by Pete Kircher whose Drum Kit sounded very inadequate with hollow sounding Toms. Alan 'Nuff' Lancaster desperately hung on to the Band he formed and created in 1962. Lancaster was very embarrassed by the direction Rossi was taking his Band. Their "1982" album & "Back to Back" album in 1983 only had a couple of decent Rock songs on each. When Alan left the Band that should've been the end of the road. When the court case handed the name "Status Quo" in favour of Francis Rossi & Rick Parfitt, Alan Lancaster said it was "like having one of your children abducted and abused" Alan told Francis not to come within arms length of him. The demise of THE GREATEST & BEST ROCK BAND of all time is probably the saddest story in music history. I read an article by a music critic who called Francis Rossi "THE ANTI-QUO" After Alan & John left QUO, the music deteriorated atrociously. 1991's "Rock 'til you Drop" brought some respectability to their name. It wouldn't be until 2002's "Heavy Traffic" that another good album would wear the name of Status Quo. From then onwards they produced some very good Rock albums. I mean extremely good albums. RIP - Alan "Nuff" Lancaster RIP - Rick "Reg" Parfitt
Saw Quo live in Gloucester, UK, December '91. Not the classic line-up but still a great gig. Only really went as a bandmate who was a massive Quo fan was going and it was only about a fiver to get in. Queued up from about 3.30pm so we were right at the front, leaning on the rail, fist in the air and headbanging as appropriate - I had long hair then so it looked like I was actually headbanging, not just having a fit like it would if I was doing it now with my shaved head! Don't remember much else about it apart from the curtain got stuck at the start and didn't come down properly straight away and the programs were about 12 quid so I didn't buy one!
4500 TIMES - The holy grail of Quo songs.

I CAN'T BE THE ONLY PERSON TO NOTICE THIS,.
@@koekelmetperen have they ever had a better drummer or bassist since the split decade ago
I prefer the old stuff too but let people be who they want to be and do what they want to do we all evolve in different ways. Play the old stuff
As soon as they finish playing they immediately start tuning their guitars.
The music industry may not call them THE GREATEST ROCK BAND OF ALL TIME, however quietly and secretly, other bands do.

Rick Parfitt invented the tuning for it

Non c'è di meglio immortale qui Quo qua❤❤❤❤
Beautiful ❤❤❤
This was a great Status Quo era, no medley crap, songs treated with respect and played from start to finish with ripping and sometimes ad-libbed guitar solos. However I do feel that possibly what led to frantic four demise was their live set. They found a live set that worked and never changed it. Sometimes "if it aint broke dont fix it" doesn't work. You need to keep a fresh and different live set and give all compositions dignity and respect. As a result, they have some absolute gems from their early days which have never made the stage.
They certainly ran compositions like Caroline and ROLD into the ground. Have they really ever given ROLD the respect and dignity it deserves on stage? I do think if they put effort into keeping their live set fresh and different, it would have made things more interesting for them and they would lasted, perhaps, into the '90s or beyond?
T H Probably right and the main reason for JC walking away.
T H I was a big Quo fan, had all their albums but this was the last one I bought. Just love the 60s and early 70s stuff. I am 63 now but still listen to it.
Francis Rossi being a controlling dictator is the main reason for Spud and Nuff leaving the band.
Rossi's cocaine addiction had an adverse affect on the band too.
A terrible song called " Marguerita Time " was another major reason for Alan leaving the band.
There was money being syphoned away from the band members, that's another good reason to walk away.
There's a few more reasons.............
@@kenbaird6282 Blue for You was probably the last proper quo album, after that it was down hill.
@@kossfan I disagree with your ridiculous ignorant comment.
Still cool ❤😊😊 ..memories ❤❤❤
Btw, this album spent a record breaking 62 weeks in the german charts!
What a band
Rock roll foda vlw banda
This was my 3rd Quo record I bought, and my 3rd record overall, as a 9yr old back in 1982. I doubt that I have to explain further, but this record raped and penetrated my brain. From that moment on I wanted to become a long-haired 'freak', and from there straight to Heavy Metal.
During their 'transition' period from their psychedelic pop of the 60's, they had two hit songs in 1970.
Those songs were "In My Chair" and " Down the Dustpipe"
During 1970 & 1971 QUO produced 2 of their best albums.
They were "Ma Kelly's Greasy Spoon" & "Dog of Two Head"
Those two albums managed to sell in some European countries & Scandinavia which kept the Band afloat financially until they exploded with "Piledriver" in December 1972.
For the next 10 years QUO were the best Rock Band in the Universe.
Sadly Francis Rossi's Cocaine addiction saw his behaviour cause an acrimonious division within the Band of Brothers.
After 20 years in the Band, John 'Spud' Coghlan left QUO, he was replaced by Pete Kircher whose Drum Kit sounded very inadequate with hollow sounding Toms.
Alan 'Nuff' Lancaster desperately hung on to the Band he formed and created in 1962.
Lancaster was very embarrassed by the direction Rossi was taking his Band.
Their "1982" album & "Back to Back" album in 1983 only had a couple of decent Rock songs on each.
When Alan left the Band that should've been the end of the road.
When the court case handed the name "Status Quo" in favour of Francis Rossi & Rick Parfitt, Alan Lancaster said it was "like having one of your children abducted and abused"
Alan told Francis not to come within arms length of him.
The demise of THE GREATEST & BEST ROCK BAND of all time is probably the saddest story in music history.
I read an article by a music critic who called Francis Rossi "THE ANTI-QUO"
After Alan & John left QUO, the music deteriorated atrociously.
1991's "Rock 'til you Drop" brought some respectability to their name.
It wouldn't be until 2002's "Heavy Traffic" that another good album would wear the name of Status Quo.
From then onwards they produced some very good Rock albums.
I mean extremely good albums.
RIP - Alan "Nuff" Lancaster
RIP - Rick "Reg" Parfitt
The dogs bollox👌👌
Saw Quo live in Gloucester, UK, December '91. Not the classic line-up but still a great gig. Only really went as a bandmate who was a massive Quo fan was going and it was only about a fiver to get in. Queued up from about 3.30pm so we were right at the front, leaning on the rail, fist in the air and headbanging as appropriate - I had long hair then so it looked like I was actually headbanging, not just having a fit like it would if I was doing it now with my shaved head! Don't remember much else about it apart from the curtain got stuck at the start and didn't come down properly straight away and the programs were about 12 quid so I didn't buy one!
Status Quo at their very best, before they lost AC and AL, then the Plinky Plinky took over and all DOWN DOWN hill from there.
The máster 70s albums loyal rock army fans
