Youtube just selected this for me! Anyone missing the Talking tour, this is fun. And the Q&A at the end doesn't seem pre-selected. Francis in mellower mood and not interviewed by someone he knew.

Rick "wasn't very good at writing rock songs", apparently. He was good enough for you to include two of his own songs and six co-writes in your most recent setlist three years after his death though, eh Francis? Contrary old sod.

For anyone who hasn't watched this, he does say some very lovely things about Rick and how he misses him.

Yes, very odd thing to say really. I get the stuff about when Rick started to growl a bit and losing his more natural vocal style. Rick's later rock material could also be pomp and no substance but he also wrote some blinders or at least had a hand in some of Quo's most beloved rock tracks. Possibly comes down to this thing more recently where Francis is trying to tell us that he knew Rick better than almost anyone else did. One of Francis's better interviews though and quite relaxed.

The bit about paying her optician is the best bit

Sooooooooooooo According to Francis, they couldn't get a promotor in Australia for the FF but, they could get a promotor for the other line up with Rick, who couldn't sell out a venue and recently got a promotor for this line up, for a gig on a cruise ship? The man doesn't half talk bollocks
