Greetings from germany. What a super cool video of this magic song. It must have been terrible cold that night....har har har! During the first years when i was listening to the "If you can't stand...." album "Accident Prone" wasn't among my favourite songs. In those days it wasn't heavy enough for me. Nowadays, that we have september of 2023, suddenly this tune came to my ears and i couldn't stop whisteling and singing this song. So i immediately had to come here to watch this iconic video. Greater than great!
***** But he's wearing "Wellie Boots" FFS - Hahahahaaa = So "Un-Rock n' Roll" Whilst I'm a hardcore Francis Rossi fan, I always admired Rick Parfitt's Telecaster Mostly White with a Black scratchplate (pickguard) - I like the colour combination Gotta laugh, as Fran' touched-up his Green Telecaster with "Fence Paint" ** ( it was either Green "Ronseal" or Green "Cuprinol" ) BTW ; I owned an American USA Telecaster for 23 years, from new (Olympic White)
@@hawnyfox3411 Ricky's Tele was also a refinish but done properly. It was originally a dark blue with white Scratchplate. The scratchplate was covered with a black flim which eventually wore away in places.
Didn't get on with the album or this track when it first was released ,but now must say over the past few years have come to appropriate both and play the album regularly ,its great .
Much underrated tune..
Not by me, for sure.

This is my top favourite tune of all time. Absolutely perfect.
Love this tune. One of many great tunes they haven't played live.
So true
Check the cover of Rick and Rossi
Great song. Andy Bown’s favourite Quo song if memory serves me well.
I remember seeing quo in the 90s at the bulldog bash, I wish I could go back to that time, I’m glad I got to see status quo live,
Ist und bleibt die beste Musik 😊
I’ve never seen this video before. Love it.
This was filmed on a car graveyard near Amsterdam
There’s still a 9 minute version of this song somewhere on an shelf
Where can I find it ?
Where is the 9 min version
In the Fake News-Shop 😉
Excellent, sublime,pure rocknroll!! Four thumbs up.❤
This was aired at TopPop on Dutch TV when I was a kid. TopPop used to shoot their own clips back then. It was aired in 1979
One of my favoryties songs
That geezer playing the white tele is the most rock n roll looking player ever 😉 😎 ❤

I like this song.
Ricky is well out of it 😆 Fantastic tune.
He looks zoned out !!
Could well have been a great tune in the 'live' set.
A rare find. Not on any compilation albums AFAIK.
It was on the "From the Makers of..." box set.
Ohhh Lush!!
Disco beat.
Very Underrated a great tune
Grandios...Status Quo forever 👍👍👍
💖💖💖💖🎶🎸🔝
They Should Have Put The Full Length Version Out as A Single
need to get that album
Pea souping 🥁
Cool wee tune…..
Fortunately this was as close to disco music as Quo got. Still liked it though 😊
Any idea where this was filmed? Car reg number are foreign and mainly French cars!
Didn’t the band live out of the uk in 1978 for tax reasons?
It was shot at a scrapyard in Holland
@@UnofficialStatusQuo oh right. Thanks.
@@UnofficialStatusQuo Awesome post, congrats!

Did they ever play it live in cocerts?
I've been to seen them about 30 times - never played it live.
Over three hundred live gigs and never heard them play it.
The Dutch Status Quotes are playing this live….blirriant
Brescia 15 -5-2024
Oldtimer crash
bubble gum music..
Why was Rick in rubber boots?
Maybe it was muddy.
..Maybe Rick didn`t like to slip on some wet mud as he was accident prone too?? ;))
@@oywee928 Ha ha! You could be right! He seemed a bit subdued in this video though.
