Rick is one of Englands' greatest rhythm guitarists, his rock solid style has always been the core of the Quo sound. Also known as "The Womorr" (The Wild Old Man Of Rock and Roll), he has written some of Quo's most memorable songs including "Whatever You Want", "Backwater", "Living on an Island" and "Rain". If you've seen Quo live, you'll know the rush you get when Rick steps up to the front of the stage and hammers out the intro to "Caroline" or "Paper Plane".
The enduring partnership of Rossi and Parfitt is the thing that keeps Quo rocking and even though they are very different characters, after more than 30 years together, they are still the best of mates. Once known as the "Wild Man" of rock, Rick insists that he has learnt to relax and now is a "Mild Man" of rock. (If you believe that you'll believe anything!!)
