Nah, management definitely wrote that up. Loads would believe it though, Deepthroat. As you have proven

As you have proven I didn't actually think that Francis wrote it, but if management want the band to be taken seriously then they should at least try to be consistent with the views expressed. The fact that they aren't shows how amateurish their whole setup is. It's also strange seeing comments that were once only reserved for press releases appearing on product. I can't remember this happening before now.

Andy Bown's keyboard's sound like there's an ice cream van on stage. Well it seems I'll be keeping my money in my pocket again regarding any 'Status Quo' release Thats what i think Andy is playing on all the tracks during a concert

Well listened to this. At times its canny. But that's because the original songs are so strong. Others are poor especially when Rhino sings. All it did was make me miss Rick.
I imagine this will be the only Status Quo release ever, that has a female singing a lead vocal. Its canny to be honest but such a good song anyway.Hearing her voice on Rain, I would much rather have heard her singing it lead, maybe slowed down a little. Could have worked. Any way filed away, doubt I will listen to it again.

The most dignified thing that could be done here is stop releasing this garbage under the SQ name Cheers

John gave his up way back when because he was just fed up, Alan was robbed of his shares and Rick is no longer around but he will still have his share in the company that will go to his estate, so not much can be done to stop Rossi from keeping the Status Quo name

It's the name that's in the public's head and it's the name that makes money. Jeff Lynne has tried it with his new band but who actually calls them "Jeff Lynne's ELO"? They're still ELO and always will be. Jeff didn't do it for reasons of decency either, it was a mix of control freakery and giving the finger to Mik Kaminski and Louis Clarke.

RAH at #43 in album chart.
Wacken at #1 in Music Video chart. Seems impressive but this is in a Top 10 that includes Joseph and Cats - "videos" that have been out for years. It takes nothing to get a #1 nowadays.

Dignified - having or showing a composed or serious manner that is worthy of respect. Nothing dignified from any of the Quo camp over the last few years

The RAH album has not even made the Top 100. Wacken was never there to start with.
Looks like pre-orders gave a decent enough position to start with but there was no pick-up afterwards. Not surprising.
