If you check the english oxford dic for the definition of the word Shit it says.....pop band Status Quo.

They are without doubt the biggest pile of shit ever to lift a guitar.

Quo.

They could have been the innovators that Floyd could have been. Experimental in the 60s before they sold their
soul to The Three-Chord Devil. I like a lot of their early stuff.

Let's.












Quo.

THE Quo.

Now shut up!

No.















QUO.

Can't knock the Quo. Basic stuff well done with rhythm and a tune.

Few people can write a tune these days but a good twelve bar blues writes them for you.

They could have been cunts. And were.

Re Alc, they were never innovators and their sixties stuff was derivative shite. They were nothing like Syd's genius.

Pictures of matchstick men could well have been a Pink Floyd number

Indeed, Mark.

The musical snobs may feign disdain of the Quo but like Noddy Holder's granny at Christmas, when the Quo comes on at a wedding or whatever passes for a disco these days, they are up there rock n' rollin' with the rest.

RIP Rick......a true legend and a truly legendary band

True.

So could Black Veils of Melancholy and Ice In The Sun.

Spot on Reg

I am a massive Pink Floyd fan but Pictures of Matchstick men brought out in 1968 at that stage was as innovative as See Emily Play by Floyd.They went a different route after that touring whereas Pink Floyd went into the studio
