*The Warning* has a bunch of new live videos released. I think that you will enjoy them more than their music videos. The song above is from my youth during school days. 😍
Nope not until you react to Sonata Arctica White Pearl Black Oceans Live. Heath I like you but no one cares about these old bands. I've sent you money and you don't do the reactions so why should people financially support you for doing not what they pay you to do. It's pointless. Idk why you do reactions anymore because you don't care what your audience wants so why should they care about you??
Being a very old man now, I am happy to say that I have been listening to The Quo since around 1964 or 5, and I still get a buzz. They are The Quo. Brilliant.
Caroline - One of the greatest show-openers of all time. Sets the tone for what follows from the opening chord and just gets better and better from then onwards. No pretentions. No airey-fairy solos. No nonsense. Just get on down, rock out and enjoy the party with totally honest good time 3 chord boogie. No-one does it better than The Quo!
I saw these guys in the mid 70’s in St. Louis. The band consisted of 3 guitarists and a drummer. The guys stood in a semi circle head banging the whole concert. To this day it’s still my favorite concert. 🤘🤘
I was at this show, headlining the second stage at the Download festival, opposite Linkin Park. I’m a huge fan, I first saw them in 1984 and have seen them about 40 times since. They were incredible that day.
They've been spreading joy like that here in the UK since the 60's. Many reactors cover the Queen set at the Wembley Stadium 'Live Aid' concert in 1985 - but what not many of them know is that Status Quo started that show in a memorable and thunderous way - setting up the day for all the wonderful bands that were to follow - (I'm a massive Nightwish, Babymetal, Lovebites etc fan) but I still find my way back to Status Quo - they don't get the love and respect they deserve. Take good care of yourself 😊
Agreed - any band could have went on first at Live Aid, but only one band could have opened the show and Quo did just that with the perfect song which, even though it was a was a John Fogerty cover Quo released in 1977, they made it their own and it seemed if it was written for just that occasion.
Also check out the Frantic 4 concert in which teh original 4 members reunited after 20 years to play a final tour together. Two of the band members are now dead (Rick Parfitt - rhythm guitar; Alan Lancaster - bass)
First up. The name of the band is Staytus Quo, but God bless America 😂 Francis Rossi is lead, and Rick Parfitt (the dude with the hair) is rhythm, and is sadly no more. The best thing about this is I saw them at the same venue in the late 70s and this is 36 years later and they still sound great. One of the best rock and roll bands of all time.
When you go to see Status Quo, you get 2-3 hours of exactly what it says on the tin. Fantastic live band. Sadly only one original member left in the band now but the original line up did get back to together 10 years ago, for what was for me, an emotional re-union. I was blessed to see it live. If you liked this, Try Blue Eyed Lady, Roll over Lay Down, Whatever you Want, Down Down, Roadhouse Blues, 45 Hundred Times, Big Fat Mama and so many more.
You mentioned it sounds like Can't Stop The Rock. There's a reason for that. They sampled that opening riff of Caroline and used it as the main rhythm of that song.
I've seen these guys live, it was an absolute blast though i was half deaf for a couple days after lol. They have so many bangers, "Down the dustpipe", "Paper plane", "Roll over lay down", "Whatever you want"..., not to mention "Roadhouse blues". RIP Rick Parfitt.
Caroline was Radio Caroline, at one time the only UK radio station giving them airplay. Then came the album Piledriver and the rest as they say, is history.
The 1977 to 84 setlists were simply amazing: Caroline Roll Over Lay Down Backwater Little Lady Whatever you want Hold You Back Rockin all over Over The Edge Dirty Water 4500 Times Big Fat Mama Don't Waste My Time Roadhouse Blues Rain Down Down Would have loved to see them then, but was born 30 years too late
Been a fan of Quo since I heard Pictures of Matchstick Men in 68 and one of my top 5 concerts was this band seen them right after Rick got out of hospital they played for 2 1/2 hours no opening act and I can honestly say is was a hell of a show. Also I remember a show where Slade opened for them that was a wild night, to say the least.
One of your best reactions kiddo. I haven't heard this song in almost 50 years... My band covered it in 1973..it's a really good song. Status Quo always make you feel great... I had forgotten this feeling until I discovered Band-Maid...but you already know about this. You have seen the girls live and I hate you...😂 I'm in the UK. I hope that I live long enough to share the JOY!! Interesting fact...as Status Quo come on stage the tune that is playing is "Pictures of matchstick men" their first hit. 1968. Don't forget...you've got to "Keep running, got to keep running..." Say.... Hello, Hello, Hello, Hello....
Best good time live band I ever saw and saw them many times. QUO LIVE was recorded at the Glasgow Apollo my hometown. They opened every show with this song and were relentless start to finish. Awesome ❤
One of my alltime favorite bands since the early 70´s. Happy band, pure rock songs. Such great music! You should definitely react to their best ones like "Down Down", "Rain", "Little Lady", "Roll Over Lay Down" and "Big Fat Mama". For me their early songs are the best ones :-) Thank you Mr.Rock´n Roll, keep on rockin´!
I have an abiding memory of Rick kicking off Caroline with the on off switches on the Marshalls glowing behind him. Any of use, of a certain vintage will remember a wall of Vox AC30s. That touch of feedback as Rick cranked the volume knob and hit that downstroke it cut like a lance!
Whatever you Want, Down Down.. Roll over lay Down.. and Rain! All Live-versions please.. In the Army, Rocking all Over the world, Again and again, and so on.. we have hundreds of Quo-songs to like.. 😆
Mr Rock n' Roll 11:0211:02 you might like to know that music Quo walk on to is a riff from their first UK hit in the 60's " Pictures of Matchstick men ". A catchy pop tune from before they reinvented themselves with a heavy sound .
Without disrespecting Quo fans, yes all the songs are like this. Status Quo, are the epitome of a rock and roll, 12 bar blues band. A formula that worked for them so well and as others have explained, 'the quo' have been performing live, for years and years. Years ago I bought a double LP of Status Quo live. It was released in 1977 but it was a few years after that when I bought it. It would be good if your band can listen to it and maybe get some ideas for songs in a similar vein?
Man, you felt the power of Quo.... 🤘 They are fun, upbeat and just make you happy with their music. They did a few slower songs ' In The Army Now ' for example but they are a fun band on the whole!!!
Rick was the most powerful 12 bar blues rhythm guitarist ever, the energy he puts in is incredible, the string choice on his strat are so hard on the guitar it needs reworking every gig, as Rick says in the documentary
To date, seen them 34 times in concert in the UK. Last time was before Rick died. Gig was in a small field at the back of a pub in East Yorkshire, a coupleof miles down the road from where I live. A surreal experience if ever there was one. But bloody brilliant as usual. RIP Rick - you're missed.
Who'd a' thunk it - Thrash was invented by a bunch of Brits in 1973... Also, Stop The Rock was originally built around a sample of Caroline, good ear!.
Hi, if ur looking for a different twist on (as we say in the uk) stay-tus quo not stat us quo, try their “naked” album (all acoustic session) u’ll see the diversity regards E
Whatever you hear that sounds like this....came from this. Theyve been doing this since the 70's ( when I first saw them!!😫). They went commercial after a while...sadly. but many of their older hits I still play to this day. Welcome to true headbanging🤣😁👍
What you are looking at here are master craftsmen, musicians and performers Quo can run any band out of town. They play with the energy of 21 year olds, they deliver everytime from beginning to end.
Nice to see my old favorite band back from the seventies when I was a teenager ❤. I had al their albums. Caroline is their traditional opener. Rick Parfit RIP, was the rythem guitar PLAYER. You name a song, I know all of them. Check out: Down down, or: Roll over lay down. Big fat mama Paperplane Backwater The started in the late sixties, it's an band from England. Francis Rossi is the bandleadsingerguitarplayer, from the beginning. I watched them some years ago in a live show in the Netherlands, near my home town. If you stay on this train it's no problem I have a giant list for you to share. And we share a new favorite, FLOOR???? 🤔🤫😉 Greetings from the Netherlands 🇳🇱🔥⚡
This is one of the best reactons I`ve seen . So funny , Quo are an institution here in the UK . Sadly we lost one of them (Rick) and he`ll be sadly missed !
So many great songs by one of the best ever live bands. Don’t think it matters, Drifting away, Riverside, Whatever you want, Roll over lay down, Don’t waste my time etc.etc. By the way, it is Status Quo as if you were saying Staytus.
Mr Rock N Roll you just got exposed to the relentless and extraordinary force of the greatest boogie rhythm guitarist, the late and great Rick Parfitt. He was one of a kind, a master.
Status Quo are the Absolute Definition of Rock ‘N’ Roll And Rick Parfitt stood in front of he’s stack ripping the Ass off he’s Guitar He Is The Absolute Definition Of A Rock Star
Dude I saw em live with their original line up and did the ‘74 live album! It was the most fun show I’ve ever seeen!! Everyone jumping and tossing beer in the air, it was great 😂😂
I was there and they were fantastic. Some context for you. This was at Download Festival UK 2014. This is the second stage where they headlined on the Saturday night. What you don't see here is that on the Main stage Linkin Park were about to headline. There's normally a crossover of times between the last act finishing on the second stage and the main headliner starting on the main stage. This crowd that you see here for the second stage is the largest I'd ever seen it as normally everyone wants to get a good vantage point for the main headliner but as you can see, people here wanted to get a load of the Quo.
I seen the mighty quo over 140 times and met them several times, Caroline is one of the best songs, and rick was amazing rip, the band will never be the same without rick
Yeah I like it, I like it, I like it, I like it, I li-li-like it … Rockin‘ all over the world! Saw these guys three times … happy about that! But best Opener ever is Comin‘ Atcha Live from Tesla! Listen to it!
I’m 65 right now. Status Quo were H U G E here in UK & Europe since I was a teenager at school. They were very successful for many many years, playing basic 3 chord rocknroll guitar riffs and had hit single after hit single for decades… I’m surprised they didn’t break into USA bigtime
@mr.rock n roll if u want more status quo u should do a reaction to this what ever u want that will get u head banging as to ive been a quo fan since i was 9 years old and i am 53 year old now and i still head bang to rock music its great to see u head banging your awesome Dude keep up the videos
I was so desperate to go and see Status Quo in concert, that nothing was going to stop me from going when I got tickets. Not even when my appendix burst on Sunday, had surgery the same day, and was at their concert on Friday.
A goosebump inducing start to the show and the way Rick tears into that riff is magnificent. Apollo 440 based Can't Stop the Rock on this track. Quo are still one of the greatest bands in rock.
Sorry to break up the party but this song was originally by John Fogerty of CCR fame. Saw Status Quo in Hammersmith Odeon on the Rocking all over the world tour. This was my first gig. It's never been played as well since the frantic four played it in the 70s.
Fogerty never wrote Caroline , he wrote rocking all over the world . Caroline was written by Francis Rossi and the rest of the band Parfitt added the tempo as it was supposed to be a country rock number
Another suggestion, Roll Over Lay Down . They mostly sound like this, with that driving rhythm, a departure from that was In The Army Now. But it's still great.
Age 14, one of the first rock bands I heard on the radio in an English boarding school, they still define rock and roll for me. RIP Rick Parfitt! Those old Dudes can still tear up the place, OMG!
Have seen them live here in Oz 6 times - very jealous of your 67 times mate. Would have been 7 but they cancelled one of their Oz tours when Rick's daughter passed away :(
@@aussierhino471 I actually went to see Francis Rossi doing his talk and acoustic tour a couple of nights ago in Stratford Upon Avon…… does that count as 68? Lol Quo are still touring so I hope you get another chance to experience them.
Some great Quo songs to check out: - Mystery Song (the 6+ Minute version, since it has a special intro they didn't really play live, and also a sort of epilogue to the song - I hope the name is enough to intrigue you 😉) - Paper Plane (Live at the Marquee 1972, one of the hardest rocking songs of the early 70s, no cap) - Backwater & Just Take Me (they always played these 2 songs together, and the first one leads right into the 2nd one) - When My Mind Is Not Live (if you wanna check out some of their early psychedelic stuff before they went Hard Rock, this song is a great example - one of their very best) - In The Army Now (absolutely iconic as well - this one they re-record every few years for some reason, maybe thats down to just how popular it is) - April Spring Summer and Wednesdays (back in the 70s, the TV show "Beat Club" was huge in Europe and served to introduce many a great band to their audience. April Spring Summer & Wednesdays is quite the iconic Status Quo song and released in the exact same episode as Black Sabbath's "Paranoid". I believe both bands even played the same Orange amps for their Beat Club performances. And if you want something more recent, I'd suggest their 2002 Heavy Traffic album. "The Oriental" is one of the strongest songs on that album. Or if you wanna go for their latest album "Backbone", the song "Better Take Care" is absolutely brilliant.

@@NeeceLoneWulf - A lot of people care about these bands.
It’s actually pronounced State/us Quo. Not stattus
They kicked off Live Aid in London.
That right there is what Quo Does to you ! It drags you in and shakes your very core... and it NEVER leaves...
Do more quo !
That’s how you open a show , and they go right into another as soon as one is done
Rick was definitely one of the best rhythm players ever. Sorely missed this brilliant man.
He could have fitted for malcom young , both brilliant rhythm players , but Rick had a better voice
Anyone want this dude to watch the backwater and just take me up live at Wembley first frantic four reunion concert? I mean he'd freak out lol
@@simoncampbell3144 Yeah, definitely more of a singer than Malcolm hehe
The best.
Heh heh 😊@@simoncampbell3144
The very best of British Rock that’s Status Quo , now go and have a blast with 45 hundred times .
Being a very old man now, I am happy to say that I have been listening to The Quo since around 1964 or 5, and I still get a buzz.
They are The Quo.
Brilliant.
Caroline - One of the greatest show-openers of all time. Sets the tone for what follows from the opening chord and just gets better and better from then onwards. No pretentions. No airey-fairy solos.

U need to learn the dance 😅
@@davidroberts6664 Learn it! I invented it back in the day!!!
Now THAT is how you start a show! Fkn amazing! Nobody but nobody beats this band live
Amen brother - they are the best live show ever
Can not agree more.
Kin right man , lessons to be learnt. Never write them off
AMEN.
Try....... live aid bro 😊
The good old days of live concerts for real. Status Quo awesome fucken awesome
There's a track called 4500 times. Listen to the 20min live version 🤘
One of my all time favourite tracks. Also Slow Train off the Quo album. In fact those two albums Quo and Hello are awesome.
More more more QUO please
I saw these guys in the mid 70’s in St. Louis. The band consisted of 3 guitarists and a drummer. The guys stood in a semi circle head banging the whole concert. To this day it’s still my favorite concert. 🤘🤘
Wrong....Two guitarists and one bass player
@@henrikloiske8572 Since when is a bass player not considered a guitarist?
@@henrikloiske8572erm...... Maths? 😊
Who were they opening for on that occasion?
If I remember correctly, it was Wishbone Ash. They paled in comparison!
I was at this show, headlining the second stage at the Download festival, opposite Linkin Park.
I’m a huge fan, I first saw them in 1984 and have seen them about 40 times since.
They were incredible that day.
I didn't go but from the reports they were the standout band of the festival..
They've been spreading joy like that here in the UK since the 60's. Many reactors cover the Queen set at the Wembley Stadium 'Live Aid' concert in 1985 - but what not many of them know is that Status Quo started that show in a memorable and thunderous way - setting up the day for all the wonderful bands that were to follow - (I'm a massive Nightwish, Babymetal, Lovebites etc fan) but I still find my way back to Status Quo - they don't get the love and respect they deserve.

Yes mate. Bang on
💯
Also check out the Frantic 4 concert in which teh original 4 members reunited after 20 years to play a final tour together. Two of the band members are now dead (Rick Parfitt - rhythm guitar; Alan Lancaster - bass)

The best thing about this is I saw them at the same venue in the late 70s and this is 36 years later and they still sound great. One of the best rock and roll bands of all time.
I still get goosebumps when I hear this, can't remember how many times I saw them live, but every time it was great.
I first heard this tune in the 70s and I've never tired of hearing it. This is a stonking version,
Apollo 440 sampled Caroline for "stop the rock".
Instant dopamine release as Rick beats the first chord out of his Tele. Just fantastic.
When you go to see Status Quo, you get 2-3 hours of exactly what it says on the tin. Fantastic live band. Sadly only one original member left in the band now but the original line up did get back to together 10 years ago, for what was for me, an emotional re-union. I was blessed to see it live. If you liked this, Try Blue Eyed Lady, Roll over Lay Down, Whatever you Want, Down Down, Roadhouse Blues, 45 Hundred Times, Big Fat Mama and so many more.
Finaly mr. Rock and Roll finds Status Quo, the most perfect combination❤
You mentioned it sounds like Can't Stop The Rock. There's a reason for that. They sampled that opening riff of Caroline and used it as the main rhythm of that song.

I'm not a fan of Quo really but I've seen them live 5 times down the years, just a great live band.
Not forgetting the bassist, Alan Lancaster, who used to sing this song.
Bless you that was your first time- (snigger) lucky you!!
私は1978のAgain and Again からの日本のファンです。
1997に来日した時には日本の小さなライブハウスで彼らを体験出来、本当にラッキーでハッピーだった。
Caroline was Radio Caroline, at one time the only UK radio station giving them airplay. Then came the album Piledriver and the rest as they say, is history.
My parents took me to see the quo for my 14th birthday. My 1st live show. Blew my little mind they did...also my eardrums
now there's a couple of guys who aren't new to being on stage in front of a hundred thousand fans
Que bueno verte crazy man tienes una dulce locura rocanklorela saludos argentinos quo the best
Great live band. Seen them many times and always good to rock out too
This guy lives for rock and roll, love this reaction. Btw they start every show with Caroline.
quo 4500 times live miton keynes 1984. Very best Quo. Luv yer show.
This is how they've started every show since about 1977. A great opener that led straight into, 'Roll Over Lay Down.'
The 1977 to 84 setlists were simply amazing:
Caroline
Roll Over Lay Down
Backwater
Little Lady
Whatever you want
Hold You Back
Rockin all over
Over The Edge
Dirty Water
4500 Times
Big Fat Mama
Don't Waste My Time
Roadhouse Blues
Rain
Down Down
Would have loved to see them then, but was born 30 years too late

I had forgotten this feeling until I discovered Band-Maid...but you already know about this.
You have seen the girls live and I hate you...😂
I'm in the UK. I hope that I live long enough to
share the JOY!!
Interesting fact...as Status Quo come on stage the tune that is playing is "Pictures of matchstick men" their first hit. 1968.
Don't forget...you've got to
"Keep running, got to keep running..." Say....
Hello, Hello, Hello, Hello....
Best good time live band I ever saw and saw them many times. QUO LIVE was recorded at the Glasgow Apollo my hometown. They opened every show with this song and were relentless start to finish. Awesome ❤
One of my alltime favorite bands since the early 70´s. Happy band, pure rock songs. Such great music! You should definitely react to their best ones like "Down Down", "Rain", "Little Lady", "Roll Over Lay Down" and "Big Fat Mama". For me their early songs are the best ones :-) Thank you Mr.Rock´n Roll, keep on rockin´!

Status QUO roll over and lay down !!!! Classic it’s what Quo are all about !!
Hi man
Been watching quo since the 70s.
12 bar boogie blues ,that's the quo thing,love it
I never tire of listening to and watching this. I've seen The Quo a few times and Rick Parfitt is my 'guitar hero'. Glad you're enjoying it, too.

This band makes me rock hard...and yes I mean both meanings!!
I've seen the Quo countless times, at least 20....they never fail to leave me on a high.
Listen to: Slow train ( album: Quo ). It aint slow !!!
YES!!! I hoped you would do this!👍 More quo!!🤘🤘
You make me laugh. Thank you.
I’m 65 right now.
Status Quo were H U G E here in UK & Europe since I was a teenager at school. They were very successful for many many years, playing basic 3 chord rocknroll guitar riffs and had hit single after hit single for decades…
I’m surprised they didn’t break into USA bigtime
@mr.rock n roll if u want more status quo u should do a reaction to this what ever u want that will get u head banging as to ive been a quo fan since i was 9 years old and i am 53 year old now and i still head bang to rock music its great to see u head banging your awesome Dude keep up the videos
I was so desperate to go and see Status Quo in concert, that nothing was going to stop me from going when I got tickets. Not even when my appendix burst on Sunday, had surgery the same day, and was at their concert on Friday.
A goosebump inducing start to the show and the way Rick tears into that riff is magnificent. Apollo 440 based Can't Stop the Rock on this track. Quo are still one of the greatest bands in rock.
‘Rocking all over the world’ is another good one. Yes the Quo are a happy high energy band from the 70’s.
SQ are iconic
Sorry to break up the party but this song was originally by John Fogerty of CCR fame. Saw Status Quo in Hammersmith Odeon on the Rocking all over the world tour. This was my first gig. It's never been played as well since the frantic four played it in the 70s.
Fogerty is my hero!!
@@MrRockNRollLive if you're going to have a hero, he's not a bad option. So many great songs exist because of Mr Fogerty.
Fogerty never wrote Caroline , he wrote rocking all over the world . Caroline was written by Francis Rossi and the rest of the band Parfitt added the tempo as it was supposed to be a country rock number
Another suggestion, Roll Over Lay Down . They mostly sound like this, with that driving rhythm, a departure from that was In The Army Now. But it's still great.
Wish they would start doing time to fly live, superb song.
Still going you come out off a gig with a great smile on your face.
Age 14, one of the first rock bands I heard on the radio in an English boarding school, they still define rock and roll for me. RIP Rick Parfitt! Those old Dudes can still tear up the place, OMG!
Love your reaction Cheers
Status Quo are legends in Europe and the UK for over 7 decades now. Unfortunately they lost Rick Parfitt (died 24.12.2016) but are still touring!!!
seen them maybe 7 or 8 times and got to hang out with them a few times too great band and great people rick will be missed R.I.P
Just seen Francis Rossi... still got the voice, in his 70s now... Caroline is on my Desert Island Discs list x
You must watch "Status Quo - Paper Plane (The Marquee 1972)". That live version kicks ass!
Nobody ever stopped smiling at a Quo concert.
Incredible live band , seen them 67 times (that’s nothing compared to some Quo fans).
Still going after 50+ years and still putting on a great show.
Thought I was pushing it at 3 times lol , I'll get back in my box , although have seen AC/DC 12 times
Have seen them live here in Oz 6 times - very jealous of your 67 times mate. Would have been 7 but they cancelled one of their Oz tours when Rick's daughter passed away :(
@@aussierhino471 I actually went to see Francis Rossi doing his talk and acoustic tour a couple of nights ago in Stratford Upon Avon…… does that count as 68? Lol
Quo are still touring so I hope you get another chance to experience them.
J'ai 15 ans pour toujours avec ces quatre là
Some great Quo songs to check out:
- Mystery Song (the 6+ Minute version, since it has a special intro they didn't really play live, and also a sort of epilogue to the song - I hope the name is enough to intrigue you 😉)
- Paper Plane (Live at the Marquee 1972, one of the hardest rocking songs of the early 70s, no cap)
- Backwater & Just Take Me (they always played these 2 songs together, and the first one leads right into the 2nd one)
- When My Mind Is Not Live (if you wanna check out some of their early psychedelic stuff before they went Hard Rock, this song is a great example - one of their very best)
- In The Army Now (absolutely iconic as well - this one they re-record every few years for some reason, maybe thats down to just how popular it is)
- April Spring Summer and Wednesdays (back in the 70s, the TV show "Beat Club" was huge in Europe and served to introduce many a great band to their audience. April Spring Summer & Wednesdays is quite the iconic Status Quo song and released in the exact same episode as Black Sabbath's "Paranoid". I believe both bands even played the same Orange amps for their Beat Club performances.
And if you want something more recent, I'd suggest their 2002 Heavy Traffic album. "The Oriental" is one of the strongest songs on that album.
Or if you wanna go for their latest album "Backbone", the song "Better Take Care" is absolutely brilliant.
