Status Quo - Gotta Go Home, live 1970

The mighty Quo live in 1970 on a TV show called Doing Their Thing.
An early live clip of the band looking like a bunch of bad-asses. Spud in particular looks like he's ready to punch somebody - presumably Rossi for noodling away endlessly. Great stuff.

The one and only Quo. Francis is a great lead, but in my opinion he has never had the same power behind than with Rick, Alan and John. Never the same without them three. Although thought Pete kircher done good job on drums. RIP Rick, Alan.

Kick ass performance by the lads. Ricks singing is so good here, and his crunchy rhythm tone has some balls, Johns really playing those drums, its hard to do that with that kind of intensity for nearly 10 minutes, awesome stuff, the early Quo is the real Quo, huge fan of 1970 to 79 era. Piledriver, Hello, Quo, On the Level, Blue for You and Live! are all solid and killer albums. R.i.p Rick Parfitt
