The front cover of the magazine has the Hello cover on it with the background gold rather than black. Big article too. I haven't read it yet but it promises stories about how everything clicked but there were problems too.
Probably nothing new for most of us but good to see Quo getting some respect.

Just read it, as you said, nothing really new but a great article with some great photos. And very nice to have Quo on the cover as well  |

How could the mix be changed and still maintain the essence of 3 blokes sat in a circle in chairs not worried about spill, etc. Don't friggin' touch it!!!! It's perfect!!!!! Have I taken your comment too seriously  |

Had Francis said what Andy said, i can only imagine the flak which would have come his way from all directions.
It perhaps throws light on Francis thinking that 2016 should have been the last electric shows
“We carried Rick for a year. He was on a lot of medication and wasn’t in a good place “
Sounds to me that Francis was trying to look after both Rick and the future of the band.
Also shows what a trouper Rick was on stage that he could still give it his all despite not being 100 per cent

Not sure about those quotes from Andy on the reunion. There were a couple of us at the gigs as well(!) and I do remember hearing drums and bass, more or less where I'd expect them to be (it's live sonny) and don't think the words 'this is shit' entered into my head. Maybe Rhino and Andy prefer a more polished studio sound, I don't know, and Frame always seemed annoyed at the success of the gigs - critically and from the fans. Insecure about the past few decades? Who knows.
It's human nature I guess that there might have been a bit of resentment, no matter how much publicly you might be supportive. I'm sure we'd all be the same if we'd ever been lucky enough to be in the same position.

A really well put together interview collection by Dave Ling, and a fantastic selection of photos. I haven't come across many, if not all, of those quotes before so it seems fresh even though Rick and Alan are no longer with us.
I know Dave is probably coming at this as a stalwalt original Quo fan (like most of us), and hence Frame's quotes are often against the grain but its telling that even back in 1973, he was not really keen on Quo going the hard rock route with Alan and Rick leading the charge on that, despite Frame's incredible contribution to the music and image of the band.

Remaster - giving the audio a new lease of life for modern systems Remix - using the original multitrack stems from the recording sessions / album masters, giving you the ability to isolate sections and completely change the sound of the audio |

Just out of interest do the original tapes still exist for Hello
I’d make the beginning of 4500 times a bit louder !
