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.🎸

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.

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.

Great choice my friend, I'm 61 been a Quo fan for 51 of em love this bad old school R&B

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

The difference between the Quo & most other bands is their sheer exuberance without the intensity.

This is the epitome of Status Quo live. Can't beat them.

They a legends I’ve seen them 54 times and always put on a brilliant show

I've seen Quo every year since 1986, I understand what you mean by your face hurting so much from smiling, they are awesome.

They NEVER really made in America for some unknown reason, But the REST OF THE WORLD enjoyed 'The Quo' 🎸😎☺

my friend Charlie Coyle is 82 and still listens to them with his hearing aids turned up full

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 🇳🇱

Watching this, oh god how i miss a quo concert. This is superb.

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!'

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.

Best live version is on the Quo Live album recorded in Glasgow 🏴󠁧󠁢󠁳󠁣󠁴󠁿🏴󠁧󠁢󠁳󠁣󠁴󠁿🏴󠁧󠁢󠁳󠁣󠁴󠁿

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.

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

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!!!

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

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.

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.

the crowd are singing Quo oh oh oh oh!

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.

Quo makes me so happy!

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'm surprised Status Quo weren't more popular in the States because they were pure rock just like AC/DC ! 👍🇬🇧👏👏👏👏👏👏

Hi Was there that day rocking away,love the mighty quo❤

No radio play and no album promotion. One of my favorite bands, and I never heard of them until about a year ago. Found them by accident on KZfaq.

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.

I’ve been a Quo fan since 72, that was sheer class, thanks for the memory

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 👍🎸

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)

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.

From Pictures of Matchstick Men as a teenager through their various iterations … great band.

the ultimate Rock Band..................period!

This gig has knocked twenty years off me, love it

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

Yeah!!! Thank you, I'm so happy listening to this, dancing in my sitting room ha ha

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.

thx to the requestor and thx for the reaction..... the Telecaster Brigade strikes again, shared it ofc. grts from a dutch Fender Nerd in Germany..... now i need a shower.......

Brilliant band live

They didn't really need to rehearse that is why they are great band just pure talent

Thnx bro for showing this masterpiece! My🤟🏻 🎵

Seen the Quo a few times been a fan since 1971

Superb the mighty Quo 👍🏻💚🏴󠁧󠁢󠁳󠁣󠁴󠁿

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).. ;)

Also please try there "4500 times", it's a 70s and 80s and 90s classic well over 15-20 minutes Live.. ;)

WHAT A GREAT BASS PLAYER ALAN WAS .

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.

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

Proposing medley is brilliant too

I love status Quo since 1971

... they have sold more than 118 million Records over the years.

Amazing stuff.

Son increíbles

The first riff I ever learned to play! Roadhouse Blues is great - It's a Doors cover, but I prefer the Quo version.

OMG Rick Parfitt is an awesome singer. R.I.P Rick and Alan xx

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

wow fantastic .😀😀😀😀😀🤟🤟🤟🤟🤟🤟

You have to react to 4500 times on Milton Keynes live!!

Quo were the greatest live act in the 90s

Hi friend. Have you checked out Quo, 4500 times, live at Milton keynes. A must. Luv yer channel.

Brilliant track!!! Fantastic reaction! You have to do Forty-Five Hundred Times Live Birmingham N.E.C sublime performance 👌🏻

Live- can't beat roadhouse!!

Roadhouse blues , was a Doors song originally I believe

This is one off the Best songs from Status Quo 🎸🎸🎸🇬🇧🇬🇧🎤 The Original is from The Doors ........Roadhouse Blues 🇺🇸

Status Quo are similar in a lot of ways to AC/DC. Like Chuck Berry but louder. A lot louder.

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!

You must of heard of the American band called the doors, well that was the original and where you probably heard it before.

The doors to start with 😊 and then.....😊

Awesome

God bless you sweetheart mate RIP Rick

get your headphones on, turn volume up and stomp out.

Danke super

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

Where can i see all Status Quo with you ??.m Seen them about 80 times live .

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!

Frantoc four reunion! Original line-,up! Lawdy mama!

Not the same without Alan Lancaster's bluesy voice.

Talking of Chuck Berry they do a mean version of Johnny B Good!

Quo-oooooh-oh-oh

They used to out on a great live show😅

❤

Where is this concert from and what year and is it officially released on DVD?🕺🎸🥁👌

RIP Ricky Boy Parfitt❤

RIP Rick Parfit,

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.

🔈🔉🔊🎸🎸🎸👍

Definitely speeding 😜

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.

You will luv 4500 times Wembley please play

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

And American's missed out on so many great bands and music

And Australia and Asia

Amerans missed out on so so many great English bands but they didn't give a shit as they had all of Europe to play in front of

check out good golly miss molly live you'll love it.

Originally done by The Doors
