Review
Still here. Still hungry. Still kicking out classics. Feast yourself on 40 years worth of the legend that is Status Quo in this feature-stuffed double disc that packs more rock than a mountain!

Enter the studio and find out what keeps the fire burning in the belly of the Quo. As the boys lay down their 27th studio album, a completely candid documentary follows the inspiration and perspiration behind each new swaggering lick and riff.

Go deep into the archives with fistful of epic performances from ultra-rare promos and blistering 70's live footage to the 1999 Proms backed by a full orchestra and a slew of other world-conquering performances.

"Кво" отменили британский тур, так как у Рика Парфитта обнаружили опухоль гортани. Зло- или доброкачественную - пока неизвестно, нужно пройти обследование.
Парфитт в группе со дня ее основания в 67 году. Восемь лет назад он перенес операцию по коронарному шунтированию.

* Interview - Rossi & Parfitt straight talking

29 мая 1949-го года в Лондоне родился Фрэнсис Росси (Francis Dominic Michael Nicholas Rossi), вокалист, гитарист и автор песен самой джинсовой в мире группы Status Quo.

Сегодня в день 57-летия Фрэнсиса Росси позвольте объявить о запуске скромной коммьюнити русских поклонников Статус Кво
http://community.livejournal.com/status_quo_ru/

"In The Army Now" была написала указанными братьями Болландами и выпущена в 1982 г. на сингле. Песня не имела особого успеха на родине в Голландии, но её услышал Ф.Росси и когда позволила ситуация, её записали сами Кво. Спета и сыграна песня была так, что сразу стала бессмертным хитом. Только благодаря С.Кво об этой песне знают миллионы людей, не входящих в узкий круг поклонников Болландов. Судились наверное из-за гонораров, хотя я никогда не видел упоминания об этом в их биографиях. Наверное, была какая-то мелочь, разрешённая менеджерами.

>Никто ни с кем не судился. Исполнять и записывать чужие песни -
>в этом нет никакого криминала. Слово менеджеров здесь последнее.

А с этим никто и не спорит, всё это жёстко регламентировано. Я вообще об этом процессе слышал только из русских источников. Если это правда, то не исключено, что авторы песни посчитали, что их гонорар за неё был слишком мал. Один знакомый немец-гитарист сказал мне, что за исполнение некоего хита 70-ых на альбоме своей группы он заплатил куда надо что-то вроде 200 евро. Я не знаю как это соотносится с количеством проданных дисков, т.к. он уплатил эту сумму ещё до выхода альбома. Конечно, 200 евро за "Армию" - это не деньги... Ну а как там было на самом деле, кто их знает.
