....and remixed with different drum sounds, extra reverb etc... They sounded shit. Naw not them, they were feckin' dire!! A few years back they released a 1970-1990 Complete Studio Albums set and it was the original mixes remastered. There's a torrent somewhere. That's what I meant. I'm going t that torrent and downloading! Don't tell anyone. Doh!

Why didn't Quo do stuff like this when they were doing the covers albums? Love a bit of ZZ. They really need their early stuff remastering.

Great song. One of the best lyrics Quo have ever done. I prefer the RTYD version, actually! <Ducks the flak>

That's correct, that is Brian Robertson. This must be 1982 - Robbo was in Motorhead at the time.
The others are Denny Lane (Hollies & Wings), Kenney Jones (Small Faces, Faces, Who - at the time), John Entwhistle (Who). {Just popping back to have another look 'cos I can't remember who the last one was. Back soon}
This was 1984, EOTR tour. Here's a better quality version of the pic: Of course you're right - Pete is there. Doh! Maybe Robbo was with Motorhead at that time?

You must set your comedy standards very low - it was utter shite. Even if you put aside the racist crap (and no, it didn't fly over my head that the white guy always lost) it wasn't just not funny, it was embarrassingly unfunny.

It's Rick Wakeman, of course.
No Nick Kershaw, no Jim Lea (Slade bassist)
Oh, and Roger Taylor is there too, of course.

On stage at Wembley with Pip Williams for Bye Bye Johnny. I was at that one too!
Quo very rarely have people on stage with them, and I've been at a couple of those occasions!

Fairly sure the guy that Lemmy is doing the 'bunny ears' to is Brian Robertson. That's correct, that is Brian Robertson. This must be 1982 - Robbo was in Motorhead at the time.

Picture on the inside of the gatefold , ahhhh if only they could do that now. Mind you I read somewhere it was a staged photo.Still class ! Wotcha DTIM.There was a post about this and apparently the band borrowed instruments because their's never turned up..someone will know. That explains why Rick has a Les Paul and Francis a Strat, then! Didn't know that. Mystery Song is the greatest rock song ever written (probably!)

I've allways blamed HIM for the demise of the band
[ Yep! The man that ruined Status Quo! Pip was chosen based on his record, he worked to a brief, all of the band and management agreed to the change in approach and they all signed it off as job done and ready to release. Quo were trying to get even bigger - they chose the wrong route (though they ave survived when so many others didn't). It was a mistake all round, not just the producer.
