So sad hes not here anymore, a true legend.
Great Rick ,he will always forever be in a lot of people's hearts Legend 👌
Thanks to you tube we can still hear Mr Parfitt.
No sides to Rick authentic, real, genuine and MISSED!
A down to earth bloke who didn't forget where he came from.
Handy that for getting home, especially after a few pints.
Also a bloke who was notoriously bad with money!
Really miss Rick RIP mate x
What man Rick was, an absolute gentleman and cool as 10 right until the very end. I’m certain Blue for You was advertised on billboards at every first division football ground when it was released. It doesn’t get any bigger than that, the most watched sport in the world and Quo were there! 🤘
Chelsea liked Blue For You more than most clubs.
Thank you for all these videos you post. Another great watch here with Rick 💖💖🤘🤘🤘🤘🤘
Legend
Such a shame he’s never longer with us.
What a bunch of bastards, and so cynical and deliberate
Ricks story there about being ripped off. Living on an Island is the clue to this I think.
Don't despair for him. They took the dosh everytime. No one in Australia will forgive them for "Down down prices are down" for a supermarket chain.
Met Rick a couple of times, he would talk all day lovely guy
It should have been a good amount of money, if not that raises questions over management
He's exactly right, Quarry productions in Wardour st had some shady people hanging about, Alan Lancaster always insisted they were being ripped off, certainly I knew of a couple of name's yet there was a naviety surrounding the band at the time
Good song by the jam about wardour street it's called A bomb 💣 in wardour street best wishes from Durham
Lived his life the way he wanted.
Rick was the best. Truth is, how many blacks did you ever see at a Quo concert. Besides that, they go out to play music and nothing more. Sad story it is.
Rick must have done well, that's a huge swimming pool he had at his house there.
If you lived in the UK in the 70s & 80s & didn’t know about the controversy of playing in South Africa, then you must have lived alone in a bunker. How on earth could he be surprised at the press & UN reaction? No one else was
They were never down in a politik, and they were true naive or just trust their "friends"!
What are your thoughts on the place now? Really taken off hasn't it?
That wasn't the point of the comment.
Not that it bothers you.
Great band. Take more than that to bury Quo. Sad story though.
Must be talking about Colin Johnson and Alan Crux (Cruxie).
❤
Rock god
Interesting promotion, don't recall it ever in the states ... wonder when it was.
What year was the South Africa story?
Tricky the Bristolian rapper got paid for the Levi's deal ? I'm not having that.
I think no one would want to be seen in Chinese Levi's now, mine went straight back to where they came from.
Who was Quo's manager in 1987?
Colin Johnson?
@@Nyquest most likely I guess.
Iain jones was the manager then I think , ex tour manager
One born every minute. Working class boys done good. Ignorant to how the world works. Seduced by Bling and professional images. Education..Education. Education..should have written a song about it
Guy sitting by his pool telling me he's still upset, after agreeing to play in Apartheid Sth Africa, about how his accountant told him he had no money for a 12th Porsche. Ffs.
Its a Wrangler denim jacket. Rossi is wearing?
Playing in apartheid S Africa, then moaning about being ripped off by sleaze-balls - not a good look.
Bullshit,of course he knew about South Africa.A dark side to Rick Parfitt.
Sorry but they would have known about apartheid in SA,but the money was too good to turn down..Greed makes you conveniently forget any principles
Not necessary. They’re musicians, they don’t know shit about the world that’s not in their neighbourhood. They may have seen that the blacks didn’t live the high life, but the deeper meaning behind that isn’t obvious to them.
@@kasperkjrsgaard1447 Nope..l seem to recall,at the time,the band being warned about playing there.They knew about apartheid but the Jewish owner of sun city was handing out gigantic sums of money to play at his resort,that they conveniently forgot about everything except the money..Rod Stewart did the same
@@davidglow3
And Dionne Warwick, Tina Turner, Ray Charles, Queen, Rod Steward, Black Sabbath, Dolly Parton, Elton John, Liza Minelli, Linda Ronstadt, Olivia Newton-John, Beach Boys - in total more than 300 artists or groups have played in Sun City.
@@kasperkjrsgaard1447 and if you would have asked them at the time,all of them claimed they knew nothing about apartheid and went there completely ignorant of South Africa..Some of the worst offenders were black musicians..Human selfishness knows no bounds..Let's not forget Rodders asked for and got £6m for performing a few songs at private birthday party for Green and his family.He flew from America to France for it,such was his love of money
I remember at the time that Sun City was marketed as a place in SA where apartheid did not apply. Whether true or not, that's how it was described, and that's why bands went.
