RIP Thread - December

Your right OLM, we've lost too many this year, it all started with Lemmy last Christmas.

 

Status Quo - back in the day they were ''probably'' the hardest working and entertaining band around, seen them five/six times and got full VFM every time, quite often better value than the headline act. They're not to everyone's taste but, only the music snobs do them down.

 

You're talking ****e.

 

Rip Status Quo man Rick P.

Not my style of music but I am a boring sod and only listen to Reggae or Ska.

 

So sorry to hear the passing of Rick Parfitt, not my type of band, but nevertheless a great rock musician.RIP

 

Well I don't mind admitting to being a Quo fan and saw them many times. Never disappointed. Saw them for the last time 2015 at The Blue Bell Burton Agnes. RIP Rick Parfitt.

 

not my thing ... Quo was my dads thing , i hope Rick can bang out a few chords for my old man up there - RIP

 

Quo were at their peak in the early 70s. By the late 70s they were on the wain and I agree a whole lot less relevent. They could still knock out the odd good tune even then.

 

A man talented in music and most certainly on how to party.

Party on up above Rick.

 

I saw Quo in 1982 at Brid Spa. Cracking night. RIP RP.

 

I agree with OLM's request for decorum, but I must say, that for me, this is 'nail on the head' analysis.

 

"Freddie (Mercury) was good that night. Only that night, though!"

 

I understand What You're Proposing, but everyone has to sometimes Break The Rules

 

Tbh, a bit like Hot Chocolate, they had their own little niche or genre, with big crossover appeal into other markets.
They always exuded a goodtime infectious bonhomie on TOTP- a useful trick.

 

Do whatever you want.

 

you self-righteous, sneering, judgmental arsewipe.

 

1st time i saw them were at bardney festival in 1972.great boogie band.
r.i.p. kiddo.

 

Quo were alright if you don't try to take them seriously, it's just party stuff. RIP Rick

 

RIP to the Red Army Choir. Aeroplane crashed after take off from Sochi all 90 on board dead - 64 of which were the red army choir.

 

when its a tune u recognise you can really appreciate the harmonies , totally bang on !! - not at all what i was expecting - RIP
