Super impressed by Quo's spirited rendition of this great song and, judging by her enthusiasm for it, so is Maddy Prior. Brilliant.

[@timshaw390]

Don't think I have ever seen anyone as happy as Maddy is to be on the stage, in front of a crowd. What enthusiasm she has.

[@TrevorWhitehead-b6w]

Maddie Prior is a very nice lady. We met her once after a gig. Steeleye span got me out of trouble. When I used to play my music loud the neighbors got a petition against me but when I played Steeleye span records the local children danced around the gardens which saved my bacon.

[@davidamos1387]

Love this, Maddy Prior is a legend and Quo also did it justice. Awesome rendition.

[@peterblake3104]

You know what this is? Absolute sheer fun. Thata what this is. Like only Quo can do. Maddy Prior is having the time of her life.

[@bjtild]

One of Status Quo's best covers. I have always thought Francis Rossi and Maddy Prior should do an album together! This is friggin' brilliant!

[@joannagodfrey5111]

there is actually a Steeleye Span & Francis Rossi album

[@davidsnowdon7328]

​@joannagodfrey5111 what do they call it

[@wirelessboogie]

Francis and Maddy did a song together last year, Hard Times of Old England. To be fair I didn't quite like it, even though being a Quo fan. I think Steely Span's original version is more Quoing than this new one.

[@jonathanlewis453]

Status Quo are part of my furniture and I was pleased to hear this but Maddy’s clarion voice was the benchmark for this song and I should like to have heard more of it.

[@kevinbennett7615]

What a fabulous pairing. Well done Quo and well done as ever Maddy Prior!

[@TimXJ]

One of the most joyful songs ever recorded. I've listened to it dozens of times for 40 years!

[@thoughtful_criticiser]

I remember this on Top of The Pops when I was in high school.

[@BeasleyStreet]

In complete agreement...Maddy looks in the zone...

There couldn't have two more different bands, Quo and span but this is pure class.

[@garylove5475]

Don’t care what anyone says about SQ they have always stuck to their formula and always a huge fun band. This song was out around Christmas 1975 and has been indelibly printed in my memory as a great joyful song. Maddy is of course tremendous.

[@Scaleyback317]

Have been a fan of Steeleye Span and Maddy for as long as they've been around. Why have I never heard this version before. Respect to quo for making such a great arrangement of this.

[@MrJonnerrs]

The Maddy rocking out with the Quo. What's not to like!!

[@cliveraybritton9005]

Just found this today. Thank you KZbin, this is AWESOME!!!

[@joannagodfrey5111]

I love the joyful fun of this video, they are having a great time and I'd guess the audience did too

What a fantastic performance! A great song made famous by Span, and amazing performance by quo and maddy to mix up a delight! Maddy and Francis are Inch perfect with timing etc and they are loving performing together! Fantastic entertainment - loved it!

[@davidsuttie4192]

Wow. Never knew this existed! What a great mix of genres. Love it!

[@johnhenrick2298]

I remember Steeleye Span's original version, and I don't usually like remakes with other groups, but this was great!

[@williamking1766]

Loved it and this song is, to me ,the quintessential British folk song!

[@chrisnewman299]

Love both outfits both Quo & Span and seen them both “Live” of course. What a wonderful alternative version of this perennial fave. More than full marks. You could not have sat still in that concert hall. Yours in great rock & folk-rock:/ Chris 🎼

[@geraintjones5785]

Enjoyed that!

[@maxedison8259]

Lucky enough to have seen Status Quo at Wembley, with INXS and The Alarm, supporting Queen, but have also been to some great Steeleye Span concerts. They took time after each concert to chat with fans, so I took the chance to meet Maddy Prior as well, and we had a quick chat. My girlfriend was already a massive fan, but she was too shy go and say hello, so I dragged her over and, after some initial trepidation, she managed to say how much she enjoyed the show. It was lovely to have met Maddy Prior and, as we shook hands, I promised to go along to one of their future concerts, which turned out to be publicised as their last show, in Letchworth. Great folk music from a really tight band, who had a close bond with their fans, but they were so much more than, 'All Around My Hat'. As for Status Quo, they rocked your socks off, and I love this cover!

[@euancameron2608]

that wembley gig was awesome.....apart from the rain..

[@daemon1143]

Maddy Prior, voice of an angel from before talent meant prancing about in knickers to a studio backing track, and she was mixed to the back; bloody criminal.

[@g8ymw]

Agreed, her voice should not have been buried. A rollicking song all the same

[@Payne2view]

I'm guessing that's a young Troy Donockley on the Pipes. He's done well for himself over the years. Lots of fun seeing Maddy Prior just have a really good dance & sing on stage, even if her vocals were not mixed very highly.

[@DavesGarden1714]

Pure magic from Status Quo

[@peterrear2864]

Met her several times ,great lady

[@grahamsyms4035]

So Joyous. Love Maddy, Love Quo

Love this cover and Maddy Prior is always excellent. Great to see Troy Donockley on the Uillean pipes. Now a full time member of Finnish symphonic metal band, Nightwish.

[@andrewflockhart7270]

You saved me questioning wether troy donockley was on pipes lol

[@michaelwisse9284]

Wat een mooi lied en Status Quo doet het lied eer aan. Heel goed en krachtig en beheerst gespeeld. Als je zo gitaar kan spelen en zingen tegelijkertijd dan ben je "blessed""

As your probably on lockdown now is your chance.......Lindisfarne and Jethro Tull are a good start......Status Quo in the day were the choice at most parties!

I am not a Status Quo fan but they did that song really fine!

[@megahedgehog8649]

I am a Status Quo fan but I'm a Steeleye Span fan as well, and the best singers of all were The Silly Sisters, Maddy Prior & June Tabor. Brilliant stuff. Apparently Robert Plant said they were the best, too. There's a lot of crossover in rock and folk and really cool rock dudes know when they're hearing something great !

[@relixization]

Don’t confuse this with a folk song. It’s an absolute riot and musicians having fun!

[@megahedgehog8649]

Most folk songs are an absolute riot with musicians having fun, it's not all po-faced purists.

[@eduardofontana859]

Hermosa version

[@sunnybeth858]

Wishing Maddy's mic had been turned up louder....and Francis should have let her take a verse on her own... Still, she looked like she was having a lot of fun!

[@michaelwisse9284]

You are right about Maddy's microphone. nevertheless , this version is full of energy perfectly performed by these excellent guitarist

[@Nefarioso]

If you have Maddy there, why sing at all? She should've been lead singer on this.

[@lennyhendricks4628]

@@Nefarioso hope this is wrong, but maybe she's no longer able to handle all the verses and wanted it this way.

[@pendragonU]

@@lennyhendricks4628 that happened even to Lennon singing with the band in the last times they were live. Maybe not enough rehearsals, since no live shows or tours were in the calendar, which Paul missed a lot the most. But oddly once in his solo career, John went into appearances and guest at others' shows and he did perform uncannily focused even with material not his he barely practiced together with them. All great artists go through such periods off focus performing whther vocalists or instrumentalists or both

Status Quo is one of the most laid - back bands of all times. Though they started as psychedelic group, history similar to Bee Gees.
