    omg, I just got the chills with the memory of her mom in the photo. I just love to hear her sign. Her, Janis Joplin, Stevie Nicks & Joan Jet are my most favorite rockers from the 70's & 80's.

    She's from Grosse Point, Michigan... Suburb on the Detroit border. She was in the band Pleasure Seekers in the 1960's, had a great song in 1966 called "What a way to die". Her brother Mike Quatro helped her get discovered by a big record label, where she gained her most success as an artist. Alot of people here in Detroit were jealous of Mike and tried to black-ball him from the radio and getting good gigs.... well it's all history now, bless you Suzi !

    hello suzi, been watching your interviews for hours today & have been collecting your records for decades(including the pleasure seekers 45 on hideout), & at the end of the day, never let anybody change who you are. you inspire me. CHEERS!!!!

    I didn't think I'd listen to this whole interview but it was so good. I remember watching Suzi Quatro on Top of The Pops. She is legendary, she is an icon for women and girls actually. Really inspiring woman.

  • @sambradley2975
    @sambradley2975 Před 5 lety +6

    I learned so much about Suzi. Very inspirational. So rare to hear a rock star who was pro family, very few setbacks, no drug problems. That's why she's still here, while many of her peers have passed away or faded away.

    • @tubester4567
      @tubester4567 Před 3 lety +1

      True, she really didnt live a rock n roll lifestyle.

    • @granthurlburt4062
      @granthurlburt4062 Před 3 lety

      Totally agree. Think of the "Then Play On" team of Fleetwood Mac. What INCREDIBLE MUSICIANS! Lost to drugs or the children of Jesus. Peter Green, Danny Kirwan, Jeremy Spencer. And the next few records featured Bob Welch who was an incredible composer of songs and guitarist. Died of heroin.

  • @scorpio7ize
    @scorpio7ize Před 11 lety +1

    My English friend introduced me to Suzie's amazing talent. I am ever so grateful because I have enjoyed her music and learning more about this unique artist...She is so wholesome and real! Suzie, you are an inspiration and look fantastic! Thank you for bringing so much joy into the world of music!

  • @dusysoonerable
    @dusysoonerable Před 10 lety +4

    I love you Suzi so much. You will always be my wild one. I was having major surgery when I was 8. Suzi you kept it all happening for me, on my mono ear phone. Suzi I love you. You will always rock.

    Suzi you're such a lovely down to earth lady, you're right up there with Dolly Parton. That's the best compliment I can offer. You're something else Suzi!

    This is great. Always loved Suzi Quatro's music and it's wonderful to see such an interview. Interesting to me how Suzi says early in the interview that she always took herself very seriously, and later on says the same thing about Henry Winkler/The Fonz, almost as if it was a bad thing. Suzi Q., if you ever think about touring New Zealand, then please DO.

    @symunir9022 Před 11 lety

    Thanks so much for this wonderful, informative video. Suzi is a wonderful performer, and her Stumblin' In, with Chris Norman, from my middle-school days, is still a charmer. Looks wise she reminds me of Lindsay Wagner a little, in this interview. Regards.

    I would sure like to hear her on movie soundtracks. Movie roles would be cool too. I read 'Unzipped', it was hilarious. I felt like she took me back to the 70's. Boone's Farm Strawberry Hills wine and the sweet scent of weed. Give me a break, I was a kid then!!

    Its funny but after all this time I wud say shes still best know in America for Happy Days & Stumblin In,her early hits like Can Can & 48 Crash were huge in the UK but I don't ever remember hearin 'em on the radio back in the 70s,which is a shame cuz that's her best stuff.

    Suzi Quatro, i remembr the day u turned up at the bbc in leathers, lol i was there, peter was the floer manager at the time, when he asked if u wanted a changing room, u said no am going on as i am, as they say the rest is history.

  • @bipblake
    @bipblake Před 11 lety +1

    Long before Joan Jett came along there was Suzi.She still to this day is gorgeous.Its just to bad her career wasn't as big here in the states.She is talented as hell.People here in the U.S. don't know what there missing.She is talented & God gave her a gift.Maybe someday she will hit the states by storm But I don't see it happening,though It would be nice if it did.

    Wow, Hi Suzi Quatro. I certainly saw you on Happy Days when I was young, but I never remembered that later on, until this CZcams thing. Professor Of Rock did a video about you, wow. You're no sex symbol to me, more like an inspiration for your courage to be you no matter what. I play more guitar than anything now, but bass was my main thing for many years. I dig your playing, truly. I'm from the MTV generation, it came into being while I was still a kid. Joan Jet and Pat Benetar were all over it, but I didn't hear about you until Professor of Rock. Thanks for being you. You rock.
