[ruenstones]

the best sound from the quo and the one and only telecaster you are looking at a group one of the best in the world using one of the best guitars in the world total legend i know its only my opinion .

[seawindify]

Hadn`t found this before. What a brilliant music!!!! And they look so young and cute:) Still love them all, since the 70`s.

[tonyiommirox]

awesome.. i love francis's sideburns :P

[cleveroonie]

did you know Rick punches holes in his pics -only know that coz he give me one along time ago at a gig - it probably gives him better grip

[jjwesley2525]

ah quo - what a fantastic band they were. look at them now. what the fuck happened?

[PeckhamExile]

@jjwesley2525 ..sadly I agree..a couple of decent album tracks over the last twenty years but nothing like the calibre of these gems..I love this one.

[streatleyred]

@jjwesley2525 i agree

[MrTrumptonriots]

Francis looks totally stoned - still a great song!

[jonemz]

This is one of my fav Quo tracks, its just the Nutz, I wish I had a copy of this clip, where can I get one ?????

Thanks for postin this............

[SYRUSBOO]

Wish it was 1971 again ....great stuff..

[willjay91]

Does anyone know about the telecaster Rick is using? Its been in all there early footage and later had the bridge changed to the tune-o-matic the same as Rossi's Greenie (like in this vid). Be cool to know what happened to it.

Long Live Quo!

[quercus1959]

The White Fender Telecaster...

that is Ricks main guitar is a 1965 model with all the original Fender pickups and parts except for the bridge which has been changed to a Badass bridge, because he attacks the guitar and plays so hard he would tear his wrist on a normal Telecaster bridge.

He also uses an original Gibson SG which is tuned to an E chord.

[willjay91]

I thought he didn't get the white telecaster til the mid 70s though? Plus it was a dark blue originally this one is like a grayish colour and has the tune o matic bridge not the badass :s. omg i sound like a geek! Haha

[LucysDadPlaysGtr]

don't know where you got that from, Rick uses a number of different tunings - mostly open G with capo to A or B, then there's his unique wierd B tuning - but as far as I know no open E.

[biddymagee]

He also uses 11 gauge strings.....bless his fingers!

[alfiesgirluk]

Wow I've not heard one his before........it's brilliant!!!!

[quercus1959]

Than your not a real Quo fan (I'm joking) My first Quo experiance was on radio Luxemborg, early 70. I have until 25 LP's

[alfiesgirluk]

I am not a real anybody fan in the sense that I am an avid follower, however I DO really like Quo and have seen them live once.

Thankyou for your kind reply you are very much appreciated :-)

[bryemycaz]

I can recommend to you then the 2003 remasterd version of Dog Of Two Head. Its on there.

[maisonsurladike]

Nice hat Spud!!!!

[ronohietlo]

he's really stoned! good song though.

[omega1956]

I actually bought this record in `71 had to trawl through every record shop to find it and I still have it,its on PYE and the b side was "Good thinking" (this track appeared on a 10"EP in the early 80`s with the full title Good thinking Batman)I never heard Tune to the music on the BBC at the time,I think I heard it first on either Radio Luxembourg or one of the last remaining pirate radio ships possibly radio veronica any one else remember Radio Veronica ! ?

[garethmarkwilliams]

Francis looks stoned - good vid though!

[Byggavdelningen]

[gilljoy]

[Tiddlytuddily]

Never seen this performance before, great to watch some 37 years later though, what a class Boogie band and just love Rossi's burners!

Cracking Tune....
