Status Quo Interview From 1974 (GREAT QUALITY!)

[1jackiea]

glad to see Alan married an Aussie woman .

[ih8tbush]

The real Nigel Tufnel and Derek St Hubbins?

[konked]

@ih8tbush LMHO! That crossed my mind also!!! :D

[1jackiea]

LOVE THE ORIGINAL QUO !

[HKJLHKLHLHKLJ]

This Is So Spinal Tap LOL GREAT!

[salmonfishandships]

they have an english accent.... from what town ?

[TheNewfairytale]

very good video

[honestjoe1000]

"there'll always be a future for heavy rock!" (until Marguerita Time!) ;-) i miss old Nuff.

[Freakster1970]

Many reasons - song writing royalties , touring too much , money, musical direction, he's singing too many songs in the set, women, drinking, drugs, smelly armpits..............

[richlovesParisH]

Is there a better way Allen?

[Fanofquo]

Interviewer: "Status Quo is a relatively old band..." This was 36 years ago!!!

Longevity.

[Nivek49]

that was the days of the old and best line up of Qou, the orininal 4.. shame they no more.. but all still going strong. Coghlan was obviously the quiet one!!

[kallhoneybun]

Francis Rossi

[GhostSpectreS]

its my daddy :D

[guitarman9202]

@GhostSpectreS

Who of them?? :D

[SamFisherCell]

@guitarman9202 he's obviously lying.

[hibeeOz]

" We've been together for 11 years " :-) so funny now

Keep on quoin ' lads

Shame the classic frantic 4 line up is no more but great to see them touring the world still in 2010

[Freakster1970]

Talk about cutting an atmosphere with a knife ) I can feel the tension even back in 74.

[egonspoonrace]

...these go to eleven

[ronnieneo]

You could see then that Alan was a heavy metal man, and if they started any of that pop band nonsense he was gonna get the shit out of there. I really miss these heavy status quo days. Rebels and renegades long before punk came along!

[bombsforyourdad]

Is the interviewer finnish?! What a bloody accent!

[fictionuk]

Great interview.......but I would like to say that the mighty QUO are no more. Cabaret nonsense and a pale reflection on what they were. So sad ! And what cc75frenchygirl said below is rather silly, obviously never the original band and hasn't bothered looking for the early/mid 70's live footage. I make no aplogies when I say that SQ are a pile of shite now.

[paulreno10]

The only pile of shite, is the shite that you're talkin. Quo are better live now than they've ever been. And I've seen them with EVERY line up.

[greenfuzzz16]

haha looks like he just thought of a new song at 3:56

[cc75frenchygirl]

they all look so fucking depressed! im glad alan isn't part of the group anymore. status quo is great the way it is now.

[iStu91]

i agree

[mistersmith6000]

No slur on SQ's members, but the way this guy talks with the mustache - I feel the makers of Spinal Tap saw this interview cause the guitarist from the movie talks the same way

[ebbarosa]

Ha,ha,ha...I can only "smile".

Nice to see a realy good video from that time:))

I love them:))

[zyxp]

Hehe, well is it a bit sad to see them so unsober. Still this is their best time... the 70s records is the best.

[lemonproject]

0:15 Rossi awkward moment and it says it all on his face..lol

[Cpttoxic]

yeh, you can see him being like "oooh shit" :P

[SamFisherCell]

Francis: "he's got it all!"

[ianandterri]

Watch Lancaster again and think, Spinal Tap ! LMFAO

[madnickb]

these reason francis is pissed he was given water instead of a margereta

[carolineJ4]

PRETTY!!

[lemonproject]

LMFAO! sad though, coz this is when they were inbeatable! the greatest rockers of all time.

[ozzierocker]

Fuck yeah! the only boogie blues band in the world.

[loverat50]

bcause alan was the main man ok

[loverat50]

ozzierocker wat the fuck would you no about the quo /i bet you never ever saw them live in your life you ploncker

[Freakster1970]

When the camera pans round them at 1:44 its a pure spinal tap moment;)

[GuitarGuy5000000000]

Great and interesting inerview. Francis looks a bit pissed off at something don't you think?

[Triumphrob]

[dimgwalltameiben]

[IheartRickparfitt]

Frames face he looks so pissed off! lol

[ozzierocker]

Yeah, he wants to have a chat but Alan is answering all the questions!

[rosiie124]

Rick sounds relli weird lol Why is alan taking control!:(

[ozzierocker]

Dunno but I think thats why frame is pissed off!

[leethal62]
