Absolutely loved your journey through some, but only some, of the Quo classics over the past couple of months. Keep it going my friend, your enthusiasm for something so many of us who have loved Quo for decades is infectious and your discovery has been a joy to watch time after time.

[@jb-ox2ro]

In the 70s, the concert version was 20 + minutes long. The crowd was bouncing, sweating, and it was wonderful, but it was like that all throughout the whole gig. Wonderful times, and so lucky to have seen them live many, many times

[@ineedoff1]

You really wanna hear it “Live” But I fear you’ll have a heart attack 😂.

[@Signofevil_Smile4theCam]

@mr. Rocknroll @4:38 just for your info. This record and all from Piledriver - Blue for you have been recorded live in the studio. No multiple track recording. They carried the whole stage gear into the studio, rehearsed until the live sound was replicated and recorded it. Rocking all over the world was the first lp they used a producer. It was the beginning of the end!

[@paulrutson5405]

Lucky to have seen them many times and never disappointed. 4500 time's live is amasing! Next one the full version of Mystery Song!!!

[@alanstrom2221]

The "LIVE" Double album from 1977 LIVE at The Apollo Glasgow has the 4500 Times version that goes for 16 mins and 43 seconds. That would blow Mr.Rock n Roll's mind.

[@martynseed380]

Quo always came across as a happy band, enjoying what they were doing. Alan Lancaster was a sad loss, Rick Parfitt more so for Francis Rossi (heir to Rossi's ice cream company). Grown up with them and still love them at 68. My hair is now like Francis' ie no longer there 😂

[@andybrown8909]

Another great review of my all time favourite band. I am 63 and I've been into these guys since I was 11. You really need to check out the live version from the End of the Road tour, it still makes the hair on the back of my neck stand up and put a lump in my throat. Incredible playing by Rossi and Co.

[@guntis62]

Your videos pop up again and again, they are always fun to watch because you have the same enthusiasm that I had the first time I listened to StaytusKwo back when I was a teenager in the 70s. It's a shame that KZbin didn't exist, and that the way the music biz in the states was set up Quo didn't make it Stateside, they certainly put in the shows, which went down well, they supported the likes of Skynyrd and ZZTop. Keep the faith and spread the word brother.

Great review of a great song, the live version is so much better and so much longer too. Go for it 🤟 Can I suggest you have a listen to a track from the Quo album, a song called Slow Train. It’s quite long but you won’t regret it, raw heavy boogie all the way through.

@iangillon6981 if I'm correct Bon Scott and his band Fraternity supported them in the 70's. I got to see both DC and Quo. But Quo for me were the better live band.

[@hazeblue8366]

I am a self-confessed Quo fanatic, ever since I first heard Piledriver & On the Level in the mid-70’s when I was 14 (I am now a young 62). I have seen them perform live from the original Frantic Four to present line up, simply awesome. Mr Rock & Roll I just love your reviews of Quo’s work and your appreciation of how good they really are. It’s hard to pick a best album out of the classics Dog of Two Head, Quo, Piledriver, Hello, Blue for You & On the Level not forgetting the greatest live album ever Quo Live at the Apollo, Glasgow. You have a great channel. More Quo please, how about Mystery Song?

[@PurpleUnicorn212]

For me this is the Holy Grail of Quo, but live is 4500 times better. The End of the Road tour in 1984 at Milton Keynes is the best version. I was actually listening to this song today, live & loud. The only way to listen to Quo. I have been a fan since I was 12 & am approaching 63. Best concerts I have ever been to.

Saw Quo on their 84 farewell tour at Bingley Hall, Staffordshire. Buggers only did 3 hours😆 Love your enthusiasm and especially for Quo, a vastly underated band. Still got my original vinyls - Piledriver probably my fave tbh. They've been around since late 60s but you can't help but move to them - foot tapping, head shaking, going crazy or whatever (depending on age). My first "grown up" (ie 14yo) concert was Black Sabbath at the Birmingham Mayfair Ballroom in 1970😁

[@chrisnott6146]

Your reaction to this absolute Quo classic, is roughly the same as mine back in the 1970s when I first heard it!

Soooooo glad you like the Quo , seen them over 50 times . They were my childhood heroes, and still are 😊

[@LarsolofGustafsson-pd3tn]

This is a great quo specily live wow thank you mr rock and roll ❤❤❤❤❤

[@j0hnf_uk]

A long one? The studio version runs for approximately 9 minutes, (if memory serves me right), whereas there are live versions that last 20+ minutes! They did re-record this song in 1991 for their, 'rock til you drop', album, that was kind of a studio version of the live version, which was quite interesting! The 1973, 'Hello!', album is arguably one of their best and has some great deep-cuts including, 'Softer Ride', 'Reason For Living', 'Blue-eyed Lady', as well as, 'Roll Over Lay Down.' On the slightly softer side there's always, 'Claudie.' At this juncture, the band would have a lot of long instrumental parts to their songs. Especially the last track on the album, which 4500 times is. 'Slow train', from the 1974, 'Quo', album would be a great one to do. The lead guitarist is Francis Rossi. The rhythm guitarist is Rick Parfitt, who was also the vocalist in the main part of this song. Alan Lancaster is the bassist and John Coghlan is the drummer.

[@leo1314ok]

Brilliant track from a brilliant album. BUT, as many have told you, you have to hear the live versions, particularly from the live album and End of The Road tour. For a better (believe it or not) studio version, the Rock til you drop album version is magnificent. Simply awesome!

[@michaeltootill4151]

Don't waste my time

[@morp947]

Personally I think the 1991 studio version is the GOAT when it comes to ‘Forty-Five Hundred Times’. The energy and production on that version is outstanding and puts the classy original to shame to be honest. Some of the live versions extend to 23 minutes which are spectacular but, in my opinion, can start to drag a little bit, whereas the 91 version is just 12 minutes of bottled up explosive rock and roll with fantastic production. It’s all a game of opinions of course.

[@jonboy8951]

This comment is absolutely spot on

[@andrewabraham2287]

Exactly right. Everything is just louder and heavier on the 91 version.

[@al4904]

Yep! Mr R&R's brain will explode when he listens to the 1991 version. His whole body will explode when he listens to the original frantic four LIVE version!

[@alanstrom2221]

The 1991 version you speak of, is from the RTYDrop album. I think most QUO fans would agree it was their best album since 1981's NTLate. RTYDrop is produced by The Ant-Quo, Francis Rossi. It is a full-bodied sounding album. Can we get into a Time Machine and go back to 1977 and get Rossi to give the same Production treatment to the weak and timid RAOTWorld album.

[@hakanzackrisson6908]

I love forty-five hundred times version on bootlegs ”Live in Lyon” from ”Blue for yuo tour I think recording has miss end of the track

[@garystewart4793]

Dude if you want to do the live version, I recommend the 1984 Milton Keynes Bowl video, 17 minutes of rock n roll excellence

[@walkingtheboogie]

Great video. The live version of 4500 Times from the NEC 1982 gig is over 20 minutes long and is even better than this recording, and this is great. The solos in the live version borrow from two earlier paired Quo songs, Is It Really Me / Gotta Go Home. The Beat Club version of those is over 27 minutes long, and for 24 minutes of those, there is no let up in the tempo.

[@CarlRobinson-m1m]
