I said put ure arms around meeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeee.
@Gyphia This is definately Junior's Wailing, however if you pause at 2.15 you will fine that Alan Lancaster is not even singing and this version is the version sung by him. If you watch the film carefully you will find it is a repeating process of the same piece film about one minute long which is repeated over and over!
@0nthelevel -it is Quo back about 1970 when they had moved from pop music of the 60's to rock under the PYE label, however they are not singing Junior's Wailing its more than likely a recording of Something's Going on in my head from Dog of Two Head. I know this is QUO as I have seen them on and off in concert since 1970.
@sargem06 And it IS definitely a version of Junior's Wailing. Not Something's going on in my head. That's a very different song than the one they are playing here.
Recorded for MIDNIGHT HOUR in Sweden in 1971. Terrible version compared to the original by STEAMHAMMER. Dark was supporting them but they didnt get a record-contract
there's a good version of this song by BIG BEAT 60 - they also do a good version of Big Fat Mamma
I like this as there's none of the Cartoonish Rossi / Parfitt pantomime act - Rossi just plays his simple but well played bluesy licks and it starts with the lead guitar not rhythm chuga - chuga
Yeah,that was the reason Nuff left..he wanted the band to stay with the Rock sound if you like,but Rossi,in his own words wanted to broaden the bands sound.Marguerita Time was the last straw as far as Nuff was concerned.
apparently Alan Lancaster wanted a heavier rock sound instead of the 12 bar chuga - chuga sound .
Some felt Quo's problem was they could sell out gigs easily enough but not necessarily albums , there was also the view of broadening the sound to sell in America .
I think the rot started with Rockin ' all over the World and the producer , it didn't just happen overnight !
The Yanks didn't know what to make of Quo before AND they've enough of their own bands that play types of boogie .
Agree with you.They had produced their own stuff up till then but the sound def changed by bringing a producer.Apart from the Whatever You Want album they never made a kick ass record again in my opinion.

Not too many camerashots of Alan Lancaster although he's singing this one. Bit weird to look at Francis and Rick playing while Alan is singing...

this WAS the line up as far as im concerned..top stuff.Only ever one Quo and this is it!

Coghlan suited the band's sound - problem was that they fell out .
Unfortunately these things happen .
It was felt that Rossi had too much influence in the band's sound , either it was the one idea stuff or poppy stuff like Marguerita Time .
Unfortunately trying to get people to gang up on Rossi didn't work .

best version I've heard of them doing that song - more interplay between Rossi & Parfitt - more of a bluesy sound from Rossi
