In My Chair - Francis Rossi - 2023

[@jonathanpardoe8722]

The great Francis Rossi is so much more than people give him credit for .

[@peteruk2]

Totally agree. A very under-rated player.

[@freqeist]

im almost 59 and you have been with me in my head ..all my life and I`m quite happy with that.

[@fredfox1764]

i cant belive this ,im 65 known about quo all my life and never liked them ,got rossi book from the libarary and now i think they are pretty cool ,checking out what i missed the last 50 years

[@RussellLawrence-y2n]

Just saw the Tunes and Chat show at Weston - I have been a fan since the 70s and saw Francis and Quo open at Live Aid in front of a massive worldwide audience. He still has it - in fact he makes the performance look effortless and he obviously still enjoys playing the old stuff with Andy Brook - who is probably younger than all of the songs. What you also get is a brilliant comedic performance - Francis is naturally funny and uplifiting. The audience loves him and he loves them right back!

[@philip2180parker]

Saw the same show, he came over as a tidy chap, very entertaining and his guitar playing wasn't too bad. Playhouse Rock.

[@stevepeters6381]

Hammersmith rolled to this in the 70s. THE greatest rock boogie band (no thrills) ever. RIP Nuff and Reg

[@junglejim99]

Forest Hill and Sedgehill School's finest... my manor. Love the Quo.

[@louiserawle8999]

I love him...he is hugely underrated ❤❤❤❤❤

[@mattb6329]

Absolutely brilliant version, nothing else to be said.

[@tonywright8294]

Shame about the white socks 😁

[@CB-xr1eg]

@@tonywright8294 Oh yes, white socks always spoil a great tune!🙄

[@aussierhino471]

What beautiful guitars - works of art in themselves!

[@paulturner7054]

Francis sounds real good on the acoustasonic telecaster, something new about the sound here. It's different love it.

[@ingeborgsteuer7261]

❤I sat in my chair and enjoyed it. Fantastic ❤

[@felinemad]

I sat on my bed but I still enjoyed it. 🤣

[@CB-xr1eg]

@@felinemad I'm sittin' on my ass and I enjoyed it.👍

[@kjellbenonisen4598]

I have liked Staus Quo since the seventies., that's a fact. My first bought LP was "Blue for You". Rock On, Francis!!!

[@BartNL-tx7ih]

First time since long, Rossi not on auto pilot😊

[@toycam88]

Still love the man and his music , Well done Francis... legend x

[@alanstrom2221]

After destroying The Frantic Four, I find it very hard to like Rossi.

[@fabriziocozzo4185]

We aspect you for a concert in Italy. Greetings from Palermo

[@iangillon6981]

Pure Class. And that Rug, really ties the room together. :)

[@michealgillman7418]

Outstanding version...always loved this one!! 👏

[@ManfredHemmersbach]

Er ist einer der besten. Authentisch und zum Anfassen. Sowas gibt es kaum noch.

[@sidscrote7570]

The first single I ever bought, correct me if I'm wrong, but on the B side was a tune called " umleitung", never knew what it meant of course! Not many years later, as an Army driver, in Germany , the roadsign "umleitung" was a familiar sight, meaning "diversion".

[@davesawyer497]

I went to the Shanklin event earlier in the year. I left after the end thinking "Hang on a minute, we've just all sang "Caroline" with the guy who wrote it. Not to mention "Rockin" which they used to open "Live Aid". Did that just happen?". Totally awesome chap and an amazing evening. Looking forward to the next one.

[@karenmiller319]

Really enjoyable, as usual

[@beatmueller5119]

Absolutely amazing performance, one can hear his passion . Brought real joy to my soul. Can’t wait for the next one👏👏👏👏👏👍👍👍🙏🏼🇨🇭

[@bibsteenson]

Amazing! I would never darken the door of a modern Quo gig but I will try to get a ticket to see Frances on this tour. He is an Icon and does not need to keep Quo alive with a rotation of new blood! HE is the main attraction, HE is NOW the only attraction!

[@murraydean2371]

Rotation of new blood?? Andy Bown and Rhino Edwards have both been part of the band for longer than both Nuff and Spud, Drummers in many bands change from time to time and Richie Malone joined with the full blessing of Rick when he was unwell. Bands evolve and Quo is mo different, they are still the best live band out there

[@michaelworse6034]

Andy Brook fits in just perfectly ! Congrats !

That you Francis that takes me back to my youth when i went to see quo a few time in glasgow. And i still have the albums to this day .

[@patrickmckay307]

YEAH THAT WORKS

[@wend77]

I went to this concert in Plymouth as it was absolutely brilliant ❤❤❤😊😊😊 (as should read and. I got carried away. Francis is much underrated as a guitarist. Superb 😀😀🍷

[@1alsandy]

Had a meet and greet at same concert it was awesome 👍

[@matthewhigson1232]

Saw him in Blackburn the other night, was brilliant came on stage and absolutely ripped into the town and the venue 🤣

[@Vic-j9p]

For a song that doesn't make sense, it's a brilliant song. Always loved it. In fact, it's the first quo song I could play on my old electric guitar I had many years ago in the 80s. 😊😊😊😊

[@alancross2826]

Memories are made of this, took me back a a fair bit, thanks Francis, superb. Regards.

[@suzannahfindlay8078]

Lovely song brilliant ❤

[@Martini2540]

He's still got it! I would jump at the chance to see him if he ever comes to Australia although I doubt he would make the journey.

[@Martini2540]

@@corderoau lucky! My father saw them when they opened for Deep Purple. I'm grateful that I was at least able to see deep purple live.

[@DarrenPhillips001]

Classic!

[@peterwood2924]

I've got tickets for the gig in Burnley in November 😊 can't wait 🙌

[@danwild1175]

Absolutely superb

[@davecass9486]

nailed it, who said Francis cant play !

[@CB-xr1eg]

Not sure anyone has ever said that, not out loud anyway. He's a very good guitar player. Listen to the solo on the live version of Blue Eyed Lady for just one example.

[@quoman2232]

Wonderful..❤️❤️

[@normanfenton854]

I Love This Song First One I Played.🎼🎼🎶🎶🎵🎵🎤🎤🎸🎸

[@bobi2582]

Haven't heard this one for years. Took me back to age 15!

[@leiper72]

They used to play it live every now and then... Also included when they returned in 2013-14 with Alan and John for the Frantic Four.. kzbin.info/www/bejne/rITbh6FpmKqoedU

[@margreetanceaux3906]

This song is more special to me than I could ever attempt to explain in a few words here. My friend Stef and I, we had your music as an antidote to the effects of cancer treatment. This song was the last he sent me, when for the last time he returned home, in a wheelchair. Thank you, Francis.

[@platosocrates232]

Now that is for me the same kind of feeling. I always loved the blues songs and try to play them as a kid. In my Chair became a favorite song as I got an accident 22 years ago. Spinalcord injury, and became a wheelchair user. But still play and sing this song with a smile. Thanks Francis. I not only loved his playing style, but also his recognizable voice. And admit, in the later live shows his voice couldn't reach all the higher notes, but now he did a great job and was not on auto pilot.

[@RobertHarpin]

Hope your doing well, definitely the music see you through tough time and also makes great times extra memorable as you are transported back to a time and place , nothing like music for doing that, wishing you well and sending Love Love

[@RobertHarpin]

Only meant to put Love once doh

[@billybobkingston5604]

Love this song, I play it on my acoustic and a man in a helmet said what's that your using

Great stuff. I've got a scrap book from the 70s, with cut outs from the NME and sounds etc. of interviews and pics. I was 17 ,1974 I wrote in my scrap book " Status ques the greatest, the biggest and the best, they're fabulous, magnificent , and better than the rest. !! I still have that scrap book.

[@wisi59]

I like Status Quo since 1976. Live-concert at this time in Karlsruhe / Germany was great. I never will forget it. Rick Parfit was the sound of Status Quo. I miss this times

[@gj55223]

Good to hear him play the Acoustasonic Telecaster, I came close to buying one but now I wish I’d got closer! And Francis is a master after all these years. We’re privileged to hear people like him who have been treading the boards for 50 years or more.

[@tomwatson283]

Fantastic.

I remember back when, buying the Golden Hour Status Quo cutouts for 99cents. I hour of all the old Quo songs, best bargain ever. Good to see Fran still going strong. Rock on!

[@chrisdakin142]

Some lovely chords....

[@mathill6869]

Yes l can honestly say l enjoyed that as much as listening to the original 45 which was the first single of theirs l purchased even though l was following their progression since Matchsticks Peter Greens Fleetwood mac took most of my available spending money on vinyl. Incidentally Quos version of Peters Lazy Poker Blues is an all time favourite still play it regularly when l need a lift in the old spirits.
