Nice wind up. I met Rick in a quiet little bar in Spain just round the corner from where he lived. Not a fancy place, just nice, reasonably priced food and drink. I summoned the nerve to speak to him and he was just fantastic and didn't ruin my life long love of him and the band. I treasure the photo that he was kind enough to have taken with me. RIP Rick.
@@CB-xr1eg I can never remember the name of the bar. It's owned by a nice blonde English lady and her Italian husband in a place called San Pedro. We always go there when we are staying in San Pedro. Right at the end of the sea front, just one other bar beyond it. Rick was with a blonde lady, presumably his wife and children.
Truly glad that happened for you. I'm a 57 year old yank who has only been acquainted with the Quo (other than Pictures of Matchstick Men) for the last couple months. It kills me that I've lived my whole life and had absolutely no clue. Sadly, my chance of ever hoping to see The Quo is no longer. What is it the Brits say? I'm well chuffed for ya, mate 😎
Rick had character, charisma and a very warm, human kind of guy. I had met Francis a couple of times in the late 60's, but only met Rick at a 'Meet and Greet' at a Christmas Gig in Brighton in December 2006. Rick doesn't disappoint and was as warm and charming as I thought he was. Francis and Bob Young have said for years that they 'Gave' Songs to both Rick and Nuff . Firstly, in my ignorance, why would you do this and potentially lose Royalties ? Ricks Songs were often quite different to a lot of R/Y Composition's. Are we, as loyal Quo fan's allowed to know WHAT Song's were given away Francis?
Love the bit where Francis looks across and clicks it's Noel Edmonds. Brilliant entertainment,,,, thanks to all involved.

Brilliant, good quality clip too- thanks for posting it, as I'd not seen this since it was shown live. Cheers!
Thank you so much, absolutely hilarious!
Thank you very much!
Rick Parfitt the Legend of Status Quo!
The best rhythm guitarist ever and boogie king!

Zero chance he's in heaven.

7:54 - it made me laughing! 😂😂😂😂
I was there & brought one of the over life sized cutouts of Francis & Rick home on the tube!!
JPT. nice memory you got of a great gotcha.
Never realised how much Francis looks like Leonard rossiter !! 😁
Вы класнные Ребята!!!и очень веселые! 👍👍
you're lovely you are Colin - lol
Legends... pity we all have to go sometime!!!
7:26 Rick says "I thought it was Spud for a minute" meaning John Coghlan!
yeh i rewound upped my vol n caught that n he did look a bit like john
Brilliant
Fucking classic
Love the way MIKE Rossi became FRANCIS overnight !
5 years later and I revisited this and was about to write the same thing that I did in 2019!
See you all again in another 5 years in 2029:)
The tribute guitarist sounded just like Quo.
VERY FUNER TAR
that was an interesting interview...but that was only 2 of the quo.....don´t forget the other 3 guys
2.06 That has to be Davina McCall
Nice blokes by look of it. Not that funny though as they caught on that it was a windup early.
3 chord band that never made it outside the uk.
Big worldwide ,even in the states they pull in big numbers it's just the commercial side of the business they never did any good
andtastic1 my brother lives in Toronto, has don for over 50yrs .. he said they did nothing in North America
@@andtastic1 All over Europe , Scandanavia, Mexico over 120 million albums sold............big money. They're all millionaires many times over.
As soon as you said 3 chords, I knew you didn't know what you were talking about, jog on.
An ignorant comment from someone who never made it anywhere
The fuck was the point of that? To try and get them to flip out?
MetalPersonJ joke dude chill
