Status quo only announced a couple of weeks ago that Rick would no longer be touring with them and introduced there new guitarist, apparently Rick decided to listen to doctors orders and take it easy ,
such sad news I don't think anyone our age that didn't like them , especially to get a party going. Even the younger ages loved them at Glastonbury
R I P Rick , you left brilliant music and memories for us all

Yes, very sad at that age.
He died from 'complications' following a shoulder injury. Sounds rather odd, but he did live the rock'n' roll lifestyle to the full.
He announced last June that he was quitting, after having his third heart attack while performing in Tukey. He said it was time to pack up, before he dropped dead on stage in front of his fans.
Tight jeans and long hair.......the epitome of the rock star.
