Status Quo - Big Fat Mama live Wembley 1974

I believe this is the first footage of Rick's legendary white tele. He bought it around 10 days before this show, in Glasgow.
It still had the original bridge here btw. RIP Rick!

The Status Quo I loved - not that lightweight shadow of their former selves that they became!

Mein Gott, was war das eine geile Band

Born in 62, 11 years later found my first love in Status Quo musically fell out of love with them in 78 but were still my 1st love I still have the posters that adorned my bedroom walls as a kid thanks for the memories guys.

The first band I loved when I was a little kid - and early Quo are smoking and hot! I somewhat lost interest after the "If you can't stand the heat' album - but the earlier ones are still on my top play list ♥

Status Quo is the best Band of the World.I, ve always been a fan of this.I Like it

[KevinFish-bu]

brilliant, that;s how they use to play like, nobody would touch them live, imagine watching quo when they backed zztop in america, wow.

[rossriddell]

Saw them a bunch of times in the early/mid 70s. Their gigs weren’t just concerts, they were ‘happenings’, indescribable events that unified all in attendance. From Ma Kelly’s Greasy Spoon thru Rockin’ all over the World they were IT!! After that it all went to shite - thanks Francis for ruining the greatest rock & boogie band in the World. Hope ur happy with how it turned out

Just fantastic, Quo at the peak of their powers 🤘

[MrHammoreds]

I remember how in the 80s a fellow fan of heavy rock called Quo "the spinning bow tie of rock" due to their decent into lame pop music and laugh-along videos. To be fair, he had a point given the way in which the superb, raw, passionate band in this brilliant video seemed to turn their backs on the many thousands who made them famous during the 70s. More energy on show in this 5 minute clip than in the whole of the 80s.

Just effing brilliant. First ever proper gig this tour 1974 and 14 years old at De Montford Hall.

[marcfedak]

Wow, some hard hitting, high energy rock n roll.

[lukasmarzell]

These were the times they were heavy.... every amp was on. Nuff looks the real heavy rocker. Guess they were pormoting their quo album. Boogie rock at his very best.... natural live rock at his best.

A shame the sound is out of sync with the film footage, otherwise great!

[gesp]

Staggering only 675 views for this priceless piece of rock history! Fab. Full on

[richardhudson]

Remember hearing this At Leeds Town Hall for the pile Driver tour my Ears are still Ringing hahaha

[Signofevil_SmiletheCam]

This was the real deal back then. Inventors of Headbanging. A shame they turned into a total joke.

Rock the hell out! Status rules! R.ip Alan Lancaster (1949-2021)

[pinkponyofprey]

My favorite Quo song !!! I just wonder why they never played the little guitar intro from the Piledriver album in concerts?

[poplarjake]

Parfitt’s right hand! That’s IT. That’s ALL of it!!
