This video depicts what the day of a Quo gig was like. Work all day, pop into record shop, meet yer mates, head off to Wembley Arena for the show. My fav Quo video! Can't beat a bit of Quo!

Hi there!! Is ur uncle Paul Jones .. Rick's lookalike? Why i am asking, is because a member of a Quo Music group badly wonders why Rick's lookalike was used. Absolutely Super Vid . Love Quo with all my heart!! Quo Forever!!! I hope i will get a reply from you. Looking forward to hearing from you.
@pauljones90619 ай бұрын
I wasn't a look alike Godley and Creme decided he'll do. We were going to do Take me away as the next video but Phonogram realised Rock and roll instead. I was close to the girls at Quarry productions who were great, I had many great times with Rick, Alan and John.

@1BillHarding2 жыл бұрын
Quite possibly the most under-rated BAND, in my opinion. Why the United States market ignored this band ─ except for "Pictures of Matchstick Men" in 1968 ─ is beyond me. The band had well over twenty hit singles in Europe, consistently charting through the 1980s.

This evergreen Status Quo classic hit DID get in the UK Top Ten, reaching No9 in the the singles charts. So in the UK at least, it's not so underrated. Their baffling lack of success in the US is another matter, though. Perhaps, they just didn't tour there enough at the time.
