STATUS QUO 'Quo - End Of The Road '84' (Videoform Music)
AND TO think, yours truly turned down two tickets for this gig! 'End Of The Road' is a magnificent tribute to the much maligned Quo, filmed at their farewell shows at the Milton Keynes Bowl. If you like Quo, you'll love this, from the obvious likes of 'Caroline' and 'Bye Bye Johnny' to rarer offerings such as 'Mystery Song', 'Rail Road' and a beefy version of the Doors' 'Roadhouse Blues'.
Visually, 'End Of The Road' is also a winner. Starting off in daylight, the Quo look positively youthful as they gallop around the stage. Once darkness falls we're on familiar territory with an impressive light show.
Quo probably won't look or sound as good as this again and if you were there, you can have fun trying to spot yourself in the crowd sequence - good luck! (5 stars)
