Who the hell clicks on a Quo channel about Rick’s sad demise and gives it a thumbs down?? Disgraceful 😖 he rocked he rocks on
❤
One of the most underrated true Rock and Roll bands
And a great singer!A lot of people forget that.Rick had a lot of power in his voice and it was original!
Status Quo, always the first band I think of when I think hard rock. Theres no fuzz, just jeans, tshirt or a shirt. Beer and 100% hard rock without experimentations or funny business. Rock on in the afterlife Rick Parfitt \m/
Descanse en paz, un grande, parte de la música que me acompaña durante mi vida. Rick Parfitt, gracias por tus acordes de guitarra, banda sonora de la vida de muchos de nosotros, tus notas seguirán resonando a lo largo del tiempo
Darryl souster1967 ,
best quote from Rick-I string my guitar very very tight and then basically thrash f**K out of it! what a rocker
oh yes!

Voilà ce que boogie, rock'n roll signifient . De la pure bombe qui swingue et qui vous explose en pleine face !!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! Rick parfait !!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! Status quo !! FOR EVER !!!!!J'adore !!!!!!
Thank You 👌 I am a "Quo" Fan since their first Single. This Christmas eve was a very, very sad day. He was the heart of the group. I am still very sad 😒R.I.P. Rick ❤
God bless carry on rockin in heaven, thanks for the 50 or so times i saw you live gone way to soon but your music will stay with us for ever.
Deeply admire this man, not for his lifestyle, but for his personality and musical talent. After having been thru 3 heart attacks, alcohol and drug problems, 2 divorces and the death of his daughter, he kept going. The cause of his death was ridiculous. A fucking infection. Miss you Ricky, rock on.
The alcohol and drug problems as well as the strokes of fate were surely also a reason for the later illness.
rip rick parfitt you and your fantastic band will and always give me great plesure in playing your music when i am down down down :-) deeper and down :-)xxx
A brilliant tribute to Rick & Quo there music has been part of my family since they started at Butlins Minehead
El mejor grupo de rock sin duda halguna de este planeta, gracias STATUS QUO, por existir 👏👏👏👏👏👏
An awesome tribute to Rick.
Status Quo ...freakin' legends.
Rest in Peace, Rick! Fantastic riffs and voice!
I saw the Quo live about 4 years ago, it was amazing and I'll never forget that experience!
The truth is that in 2016, we lost not only Rick Parfitt, but many other greats: Keith Emerson, Greg Lake, David Bowie just to name a few.
May they all Rock in heaven!
Saw Quo at the top of there game back in the day along with other rock giants like Slade the Who and Purple say no more. The best of live rock bands that will be no more or equalled. So sad at Ricks passing Quo and the rock world have lost one of the best ever never to be replaced. Life is sadly catching up with so many of our hero's but Eternal youth will never die. Rock on and God be with you Rick in eternity.✌
so right Buddy - raise a glass for this
Ditto Saw them MEmories London eat /TRUE EASTERNMOST BAND🐒🚀
It couldn't be said otherwise.
Met Rick a couple of times,absolute gent,he would talk all day and very honest about his addictions,🎸
How can anyone not like, respect and admire Rick?? A 'Rock Legend'. Great to see at the start of this video the original Telecasters, 'TRUE WORKHORSES!. We all miss Ricks unsurpassed contribution to pure and simple 'engine room' rhythm anthems. Met the guys on a number of occasions.
Very well put together. I'm very raw at the moment on the loss of Rick. In my opinion the best rhythm guitarist ever, a huge loss. I'm devestated. Thanks again for this tribute!
Myrmidon Nom I am in total agreement with you. I too am absolutely devastated at the loss of Rick. The greatest rhythm guitarist and a very funny, warm-hearted soul who will be forever missed. Rest peacefully, dear Rick. x
Rhythm guitarist and damn good songwriter. RIP Rick, rock on x
Good job Rick RIP u rocked all over the world as rock the world
I was honoured to have seen these guys live several times! You never left a Quo concert without a smile on your face! Heaven will be rocking now! RIP Rick!
That´s right: you never left a Quo Concert without a smile on your face ! ! !

I'have spent super moment with your music R.I.P my friend RICk!
Just found out an hour ago, what a drag. Saw them a few times in Detroit in mid-70's, always loved their sound. RIP Rick.
Dee Donner Ramone
Yeah, saw them when geez I was just kid and I'm old !, love in Canada too !!! RIP Rick 🇨🇦
Radio didn't and wouldn't play QUO.
However, they did Tour the USA a few times.
I am from New York and just got into Quo about a year ago. I was hooked instantly and can't get enough of them. I just got a Telecaster a few weeks ago because of how Rick Parfitt sounded. It's very sad that we've lost him, but great to know I can always watch him doing his thing here on UA-cam!
where ya been they been around for years lol
Doesn't matter, your here now. I am jealous of all the great rock n' roll your about to discover.
RIP Rick, thank you for a lifetime of great music......
WILL NEVER B THE SAME WITHOUT RICK!
Mientras exista su música , Rick seguirá viviendo....cuando nadie lo escuche , ahí el morirá....larga vida a tu Rock !!!
What a great band!!!❤❤❤
Another piece of my youth gone!!
RIP Rick Parfitt, thanks for the many memories of me playing a mean air guitar to Quo's music in my teens!
Never be in any doubt that Quo are one of the best rehearsed bands you will have ever seen. Top of their game and true pros....
What a fitting tribute to Rick, The best Rhythm guitarists we have ever seen and a lovely man. I was lucky enough to meet him. gone but never forgotten Rick R.I.P
THIS IS AWESOME! This is why i loved Status Quo my whole life and always will! RIP Ricky...you are deeply missed!
Oh so quo brilliant rip rick you will always be part of my life
Great band that I have seen live both at Oxford and at Reading in the 70ties. Always been a fan, have all their albums. This particular video is from Reading Festival in 1974.
R,I,P., Rick. You are not entirely dead, We'll be playing your music and keeping you in our minds!
Rick I´ll never forget you and your great guitarplay
EMOTIONAL WRECK,ANYONE ELSE?
Oh What a shame losing a talented guitarist i feel sorry for Rick Parffit fmily
"Be my friend" Always, Rick!!
Wow, Big Fat Mama...how tight is this for live.....just fantastic! Getting the Pile Driver vinyl out tonight, and cranking it!!! RIP Rick, gladly listen to you more than 45 Hundred Times....
Fantastic! Absolutely electric! The driving force behind 'the Quo'. Rick parfitt on fire! RIP Rick, denim wastecoat and plimsolls retired on honour.
so many memories. .the best rhythm guitarist ever to walk the earth! !! rip a true legend and true inspiration
RIP. 1 year after Lemmy , David Bowie and others, Mystery song is the most underated
Mystery Song is one of Rick's finest moments.
Sydney's ABC radio JJ 1540 am played it in 1976, because of the risque' lyrics and it's a great Rock song.
Weisst Du, wann Liebe beginnt? Wann sie endet? Sie beginnt, meist mit einem Blick-Kontakt.... Wann sie endet, Weiss niemand, man sollte sich aber alle Mühe geben, so etwas Wertvolles zu erhalten. Es ist ein Geschenk, kein Geschåft. Man zaht hinein, aber gerne. Was man hinein gibt, bekommt man, doppelt.. Und dreifach zurűck... Nicht an sich selbst denken, sondern den anderen.Das klingt unlogisch, ist aber total menschlich. .
Mystery song is brilliant
Somehow can't imagine Rick resting, definitely not in peace, anyway. Caroline, needless to say, was when I was hooked on SQ. Consequently bought Hello, what a selection of tracks. Quo soon followed, though never a huge fan of Break the Rules. Found myself falling out of love spinning through On the Level, Down Down & Little Lady being total exceptions. Went backwards and really enjoyed Dog of Two Head & Piledriver. Blue for You was a little bit & miss, when they hit, they really hit though. Is there a Better Way, Ring of a Change, Rain & Mystery Song, outstanding ! What an amazing era. 😎🎶
I met Rick in Dublin 79 80 gentleman met him again a few yrs later and he totally ignored me sad but I still luv Rick r.i.p
Quo and Rick at their best👍😀
People say,4 chords,they all sound the same,I say bullshit! And how many of today’s fabricated bands will still be performing at packed out arenas in forty years time😂😂
they were the greatest band that I was ever privileged enough to see live,and to the greatest rhythm guitarist there ever was,,
may you rest in peace Rick,you will be sadly missed.
legend, never forget my first concert Hammersmith Odeon 1980, Rick strumming out Caroline to start the show, awesome!
In all the live videos of Quo playing Caroline, here & elsewhere, Rick's Tele sounds kind of soft in the mix. Seeing them live was a whole different story - that guitar riff hit you like a sledgehammer. Rick was one almighty good guitarist, I think that gets overlooked sometimes. We miss you Rick. Cheers!
Utterly brilliant tribute to an utterly brilliant man
Mid 70’s Michigan palace theater! Three bands, five bucks! Rush, Kansas and Status Quo! Very next week, Heart, Kansas and Status Quo! These guys came out with no fanfare, almost completely unknown to Detroit , in front of a beat up wall of Sound City amps! Forever changed my life! Thank you fellas!
Fantastic!!
My hero, a true legend, missing you rick.
Rick!!! Forever in our hearts! You will always rock in our lives! Never forget
you. Rest in peace. Condolences to Rick's family and the rest of the band! We
will miss you! 💔 Thanks for the music! LEGEND!!!=
I was at that gig. It was a fantastic day
A true legend
Saw them late nineties fab. Rip Rick
Yes, incredible. Rick survives 3 heart attack, but dies of an injured shoulder. Probably on hes left side. But, thanks to youtube, Rick will "live" forever. But, what a sad Christmas for his family. R.I.P:
Really good song 👌🍀👍
greatest rock band 70's and 80's sadly no more rip rick love from all the quo army🎸
Sorry stiil one of the best if not the best beleive me !
You were always my rock and roll hero Rick. Thank you for all those beautiful years, will never forget you. Status Quo was my favourite band and that will never change. RIP Rick

YOU LL LIVE ON IN OUR HEARTS / MINDS FOR EVER LAYING DOWN THOSE MAGIC SONGS ! cheers mate and we raise a glass to you , cheers ritchie .

Rick Parfitt is an essential member of the group that has given me and my husband the best rock moments. We still continue to enjoy his classic albums today from Spain we tell you, rest in peace man ..
Как же мы балдели от Статусов в 70-е ! Как по мне, свою вершину, альбом "Quo" с обложкой, на которой они изображены в виде то ли дерева, то ли переплетенного клубка змей, они так и не превзошли.
Рик, ты навеки останешься в нашей памяти.
Love it, Fran teaching 'new boy' Rhino the Quo stance 10:27
A very sad time, since the fact sinks in.
I was very fortunate to have met Rick in the mid 70's, on at least a dozen occasions.
Saw the Band, close and personal - from the 'wings' and in the pit.
To the band and through my association, I was just Joe Public. Rick went well out his way to keep me engaged. Thanks Mate, unbeknown to you, you gave me considerable inspiration...which subsequently accelerated and enriched many aspects of my life.
A Fitting Tribute To A Fitting Man RIP Rick You Will Be Greatly Missed But Your Music Will Live On In Our Hearts Forever :(
We are the Quo Armyo
We're not cool
We've never been cool
We'll never try to be cool
Just take three chords, twelve bars and PLAY IT LOUD
Goodbye Rick - you will be missed
Rip Rick that's how I'll always remember him great guy
αμεν!!!
RIP Rick , I‘ll always remember you!
I have always and will always love Status Quo!!! (thanks Dad!!)
I feel the exact same way my old man was gutted.
Love the Quo, not the same without Rick, R. I. P buddy. keep rocking Francis you're one of the greats
A great BIG wall of sound led by one of the greatest rhythm guitarists EVER. Always a pleasure to watch and his voice was seriously underrated. TOP class and sadly missed. Rock will never be the same without you Rick......
Just seems like yesterday!!!RIP Rick,thanks for 40 odd yrs of great music.
Try 50 !!!
James George Coke
54 I think.
Clive Bindley as Status Quo I think its 50. Stand for correction.
They became The Status Quo in 1967 then Status Quo in 1969.
So you're about right...you get a cuddly toy!
In this time, musicians give all of heartblood in their music. Today, they play only for money!
We made a tribute video to Rick on our channel. RIP from sweden
Bravo Les Quo : toujours aussi bons !
And better in live...
RIP Rick Parfitt 12/10/48 - 24/12/16
Had some the best times of my life listening and watching QUO . Rick was a great rhythm guitarist . RIP. Never forget you .
No nonsense Rock 'n Roll, the way I cut my teeth to music. R.I.P. Rick ...
Thank you very much, Rick, the best rhythm. guitarist ever and boogie king!
Herzliches Beileid an Rick`s Familie, Angehörige, Freunde und den Bandmitgliedern von Status Quo!
Rick Parfitt the Legend of Status Quo!
segiras tocando en el cielo maestro del rock
R.I.P Nick Parfitt.#StatusQuo
The End of the road tour medley in the middle is immense.
Jesus they could rock. Gonna be missed.
still in shock, can't believe it!
Seen Quo dozens of times and I am filling up watching this…Don't mean any disrespect to Richie Malone, but Francis should now call it a day. Quo are Parfitt & Rossi. Without one or the other it would be like the Beatles without Macca or John Lennon.
Stupendo 👑
Remember...
sin palabras uno de los mejores grupos de rok sin duda
6 years! What a voice, what a talent. RIP
Still seems impossible we won't see him again ..thanks for all those great songs & the brilliant gigs we went to .. sadly missed always ..x
I loved Quo from the beginning Rick was essential part of it like Keith Richards with the Stones
