“12 Gold Bars” was my first Quo album …. Check it out … we used to ‘headbang’ to this at discos when I was a teen in the 80’s {love and respect from England} ! th-cam.com/video/mJGPtc21Stc/w-d-xo.htmlsi=13LXOZDzY6ix7C1t
The fact that this is blowing your mind makes me sooo god damm happy-a British rock institution and the starting point of so many of us here in the UK-keep going brother,your happiness is infectious 😊
Francis ,just like Clapton makes playing great lead guitar look effortless . Imagine what it was like for me as a teenager head banging to this ? , MY WIFE STILL SAYS IT IS WHY I HAVE NO SHORT TERM MEMORY
I really don't know why they didn't make it in the USA. Their rock n roll sound is pure Americana and they should have been as huge here as they were in most of the rest of the world.
They toured there a few times but just didn't take off, no idea why as I agree that they seem really suited to the USA. They were massive in England (although never fashionable). I saw them three times, fantastic gigs.
Your reaction is the best reaction to one of the best Quo songs,it’s my favourite along with their classic song “Forty Five Hundred times” .keep them coming. 😀🎸
This guy is so infectious I love him Mr rock n roll you have to please play 45 hundred times its great you will love it I'm so glad you found status quo they are brilliant, keep on rocking
LOVE your reactions to my favourite band! ROLD is a classic that kicks off my favourite album (and regarded as one of their best if not THE best) "Hello!" - 51 years old and still fresh and kickin'!
Hello mr rock and roll 🎸. I’ve seen the Quo 36 times and meet them loads of times. I’ve collected memorabilia, since the late 70s. Enjoy, the Best Rock & Roll band in the world 🌎
This is one of Quo's standards at every gig since '73. They could play this song in their sleep, having performed it in the 10's of 1000's of times over the years. This isn't the best live performance of this song, is has to be said. The best is probably the version they recorded and released as a live EP single, back in '75. The video for it is a mock live performance, (as they all were up to when they started making, 'proper', videos), but it was time specific for when it was recorded live, so it works really well. Then, there's always the, 'End of the Road', performance in '84, which is up there. Originally from the 1973, 'Hello!', album as the opening track. You've got to love the unmistakable Quo sound on this song. The relentless chugging of the rhythm that was their signature trademark. 'Little Lady/Most of the Time', 'Bye Bye Johnny', 'Forty-five Hundred Times', 'Slow Train', are only a few others worthy of reacting to.
So glad you are loving the Quo. I saw them many many times in the 70's and it has never been bettered. the gigs were always awesome sweatfests with an amazing fan base. Best rockers EVER!
I was at this gig,there full on rock rock and roll. Been my band for over 40 years ,I hope there'll be another 40years,I thank the the mighty quo for a tour and album every year. You guys will always be the best.
Absolutely love your enthusiasm for the Quo. Going to see them again in May and I can’t wait. I’ve lost track of how many times I’ve seen them. Always a good time!
One of my favorite Status Quo tracks, and I played it on stage a lot. Still have the live EP form 1975. I don't much like the post-'85 Status Quo (Lancaster and Coghlan were irreplaceable) but this version is decent.
Can you imagine the energy of this song in the 70s and early 80s when the band were in their 20s and 30s and the crowd were equally as young? And they could play a LOT louder! It was brilliant and unforgettable.
Status quo roll over lay down is soo great mr rock and roll oh my good ness this is rock and roll thank you soo much what a classicer classiker rhank thank you once again mr rock and roll how can i than thank you mr rock and roll have a creat great time mr rock and roll thank you soo nych much ❤❤❤❤❤❤
Thanks so much for covering Status Quo! I’ve been a fan since the 1970’s and no one in the U.S. knew about them. I got to see them in 1976 opening for Peter Frampton and they were incredible. Check out “Slow Train” from the Quo album - you will love it!
Apart from the drummer, these guys are in their SIXTIES here. Rossi is now in his seventies and I'm going to see them in a few months. Only hope I will have half that amount of energy when I eventually catch up to Rossi!!!
I remember growing up in the 1970s there were 2 bands where the UK was concerned. Status Quo & ABBA. The Beatles & Deep Purple were gone, Led Zeppelin were more about the U.S. Between 1973 & 1981 Status Quo released 9 studio albums, all of which ENTERED the UK charts at No. 1. Now you know why 👍
Loved those days!! If you lived them, you were very lucky! I think you're due for more The Angels! I Aint the One or Comin' Down! Love your work mate!!
You need to check out their albums!- from Dog of two Head- through the seventies- Piledriver Hello, Quo, Blue for you, Rockin' What ever you want- your brain will melt!
Saw these twice live. Sheffield city hall.and Birmingham exhibition centre. Most fun band to attend a.live concert, walked out drenched with sweat both times
Im sure you will love there albumperiod 1970 till 1976, their best hardrock period starting with the album in lineup,Ma Kellys Greasy Spoon, Dog of two head, Piled River, On the level, Hello, Quo and Blue for you. 7 fantastic albums packed with a lot of this kind of hardrock. A great candybox!!!
technically it's not hardrock but heavy boogie rock or blues rock. But no matter what tag you put on it it's great! Later periods and line-ups are great too!
Another great reaction Mr Rock n Roll. You’ve been struck by The Quo 👍. They have a massive back catalogue & various live performances from over the years. Check out Quo Milton Keynes bowl 1984. Roadhouse blues, Don’t waste my time, Backwater, Just take me & the incredible Forty five hundred times.
Also, fun fact: The lyrics are not about sex as everyone thinks the first time round. Francis (lead guitarist) explained it was about his ex-wife who'd lay across the bed when he came home tired from gigs and he just wanted to get in to sleep :D
Already looking forward to your reaction to Whatever You Want, the one after the next one when they do their famous guitar interaction during the end of the song
You should've heard them play this in the 70s. Audience participation was massive and they really rocked. The nearest we have of this is the live recording from Quo Live recorded at Glasgow Apollo in the 70s. It's not a great recording but the atmosphere was massive.
You have to give dirty water a listen you'll love it or the old country tune wild side of life .Try roadhouse blues by the doors it's epic . Give forty five hundred times a listen depending on the version you find it could last up to 15 mins or more. In 1982 at the NEC in Birmingham it clocked in at 20 mins !
The frantic 4 is the best Quo, try some spinning wheel blues,backwater, definitely roadhouse blues, rain, mystery song, just take me, it could be a deep dive, everything up to Blue for you is top notch, everything after not so good.

Saw these guys play this live as a 12yr old and you right their whole cadence and feel good never gets old. Am now 57 and it's just the same today as it was back then. Loving your reactions brother. 👍👌😎 MYSTERY SONG is one of many favourites and think you will love it. Just saying 👍
The song's about Francis coming home late from a gig and his wife was in a huff (mood). Trying to get into bed, he told her to...... You know the rest!

A Quo gig is like a force of nature, it comes at you and you just have to move with it
One of the greatest lead guitarist ever to grace a stage....Francis Rossi 🤘🤘🤘
Add Rick Parfitt into the mix and you had telepathic telecasters!
Brilliant!! :)@@FenderTele
Up there but......😊
Status Quo - the very definition of power stance rock.
I was blessed to hear all their music growing up in the 70’s , feckin’ awesome🎶🎶👊
The best Status Quo you will ever see is the "Live - Roadhouse Medley" Brilliant.
The Roadhouse medley is played way too fast, to many drugs being taken.
Your witnessing one of the wonders of the world.
Long live the mighty quo ❤
One of the most underrated groups of ALL time.
You have to listen to 45 hundred times best thing they ever did
I CAN SEE MYSELF IN THAT CROWD... quite literally, I was there at the barrier
Fuckin Brilliant!!
I haven't seen them live since Dusseldorf in 83 or 84 I think it was. They sounded awesome then as they still do in this concert.
The fact that this is blowing your mind makes me sooo god damm happy-a British rock institution and the starting point of so many of us here in the UK-keep going brother,your happiness is infectious 😊

The late great Rick Parfitt. One of the best Rhythm guitarists ever
No not one of the best the greatest
The guy was unreal , used telegraph pole wire for strings that would cut yours & my fingers to shreds but made the most incredible sound

Just got a hold of a used Quo Live 1974 vinyl for my daughter, who loves classic rock. one of the best live albums ever, the original frantic 4.
Absolutely love your enthusiasm for the Quo. Going to see them again in May and I can’t wait. I’ve lost track of how many times I’ve seen them. Always a good time!
Amazing band, at their peak they were an unstoppable force of relentless brilliance 🤘
Hey Mr Rock N Roll you've just found a British institution there back catalogue is amazing just so many songs for you to appreciate x

Quo concerts some of the best I've been to.
This was them headlining the second stage at Download. Awesome show.
The end of the road tour in 1984 glad they are still out there, not the original band but still playing the original tunes.
Wonderful ,wunderbar !👈🎸🎸🎸🎸🎸🎸
Loved those days!! If you lived them, you were very lucky! I think you're due for more The Angels! I Aint the One or Comin' Down! Love your work mate!!
You need to check out their albums!- from Dog of two Head- through the seventies- Piledriver Hello, Quo, Blue for you, Rockin' What ever you want- your brain will melt!
Status Quo, es el mejor grupo de rock de toda la historia , son los amos der rock
Quo started that two quitar shuffle!!
Classic Quo. Highly recommend April Spring Summer and Wednesdays.
Been to see Quo many times.
Saw these twice live. Sheffield city hall.and Birmingham exhibition centre. Most fun band to attend a.live concert, walked out drenched with sweat both times
This was in the early/mid 70's
Im sure you will love there albumperiod 1970 till 1976, their best hardrock period starting with the album in lineup,Ma Kellys Greasy Spoon, Dog of two head, Piled River, On the level, Hello, Quo and Blue for you. 7 fantastic albums packed with a lot of this kind of hardrock. A great candybox!!!

Hello this is Quo -rock 😃🤟🤟🎸🎸🇬🇧🇬🇧
Awesome band man 😊 awesome 👌
Listen to the studio album version called Hello from 1973. It’s absolutely classic from beginning to the end. Roll Over Lay Down is first track.
The very best of British heavy rock in the 1970s they were my Gods of Rock n Roll .
Already looking forward to your reaction to Whatever You Want, the one after the next one when they do their famous guitar interaction during the end of the song

How has America never heard of Quo???

The frantic 4 is the best Quo, try some spinning wheel blues,backwater, definitely roadhouse blues, rain, mystery song, just take me, it could be a deep dive, everything up to Blue for you is top notch, everything after not so good.
Love some status quo
Looks like your enjoying Grandpappy Metal.
It's something to behold.
