Status Quo have released their wonderful performance of 'Caroline' from their upcoming live release 'The Last Night Of The Electrics' on earMUSIC and you can see the video first right here on MetalTalk right now.



The live audio recording of 'Caroline' will be available as an iTunes Instant Grat track with the digital pre-order and will also be available on all streaming platforms.

'The Last Night Of The Electrics' is due for release on July 14th 2017 on earMUSIC and is a sensational live set recorded at Quo's emotionally charged, barnstorming set at London's O2 last year.

Francis Rossi told us:

"This release captures Quo on incredible form, at a concert that will live long in my memory. It was a difficult time, but we knew what we needed to do and we delivered.

"This was by no means business as usual, nor should it have been, but the energy of the music, the band and the crowd coming together was palpable."

Originally envisaged as a swansong for Quo's legendary electric set, the 2016 winter tour turned into something very different as Rick Parfitt was forced to be absent having suffered the first of a series of health issues that would tragically end his life as the year closed.

With the band having been urged by both Rick himself and the fans to carry on and keep the music blasting, they found yet another gear, and the show captured in front of a the loyal O2 crowd turned out to be very special indeed.

This fantastic concert will be released on a series of formats: 2CD, DVD, Blu-ray, Limited Edition 180g Black Triple Vinyl with side 6 etched (double gatefold), earBOOK (coffee table book including 120 pages and 2 Audio-CDs, 1 DVD & 1 Blu-ray) and Digital. Also 180g Coloured Triple Vinyl with side 6 etched (triple gatefold), 2CD+DVD and 2CD+Blu-ray and various bundles will be available via an exclusive direct to consumer web shop.

The events of last year were unparalleled in Status Quo history but 'The Last Night Of The Electrics' release sees them meeting difficult times head on, doing justice to their legacy and that incredible back catalogue. It's the sound of Quo.
