    What man Rick was, an absolute gentleman and cool as 10 right until the very end. I’m certain Blue for You was advertised on billboards at every first division football ground when it was released. It doesn’t get any bigger than that, the most watched sport in the world and Quo were there! 🤘

    Ricks story there about being ripped off. Living on an Island is the clue to this I think.

    He's exactly right, Quarry productions in Wardour st had some shady people hanging about, Alan Lancaster always insisted they were being ripped off, certainly I knew of a couple of name's yet there was a naviety surrounding the band at the time

    Rick was the best. Truth is, how many blacks did you ever see at a Quo concert. Besides that, they go out to play music and nothing more. Sad story it is.

      Not necessary. They’re musicians, they don’t know shit about the world that’s not in their neighbourhood. They may have seen that the blacks didn’t live the high life, but the deeper meaning behind that isn’t obvious to them.

      I remember at the time that Sun City was marketed as a place in SA where apartheid did not apply. Whether true or not, that's how it was described, and that's why bands went.
