I Talk Too Much
THE SUNDAY TIMES BESTSELLER
'THE ROCK 'N' ROLL AUTOBIOGRAPHY OF THE YEAR' MAIL ON SUNDAY
'Essential for fans and great reading for anyone else' Classic Rock
Break-ups, make-ups, groupies, band politics, court battles, the tragic death of Rick Parfitt . . . This is Francis Rossi as you have never seen him before.
Status Quo have sold over 100 million records worldwide, including 65 hit singles and 32 hit albums. The legendary band's career has mirrored the evolution of rock music. From the struggles of the flower-power '60s, the highs of the denim-clad '70s, the coke- and tequila-induced blur of the '80s, to fighting for musical integrity in the '90s and '00s and a fresh lease of life from new band members in recent years, Rossi has been there for the entirety of Quo's turbulent history.
In I Talk Too Much, Rossi will reveal the truth behind one of the biggest rock bands of all time, as well as the personal highs and lows of a career spanning over 50 years. He lifts the lid on the man behind the music - from humble beginnings in Forest Hill and being labelled a has-been by the press in his twenties to opening Live Aid in 1985 - and why he's still going strong at seventy. Along the way he has fathered eight children with three mothers and beaten both alcoholism and cocaine addiction. Rossi comes clean about the time he almost left the band, what he really thinks about the music industry today and the complexities of his fifty-year friendship with Rick Parfitt.
Painfully honest, riotously funny and frequently outrageous, I Talk Too Much covers the glory years, the dark days and the real stories behind the creation of some of the greatest rock music of all time.

Status Quo
Status Quo have undoubtedly earned their place in rock history. The band's record sales have exceeded 112 million units. They had 58 British hit singles - more than any other band, and more hit albums in the UK charts than any other group except the Rolling Stones. The list of achievements is quite stunning and 'the party ain't over yet'. Throughout 2005 and 2006 Francis Rossi and Rick Parfitt are celebrating their 40 years together in Quo with a further 200 concerts on their 'Continental World tour'. Recognized as one of the first 'bands of the people' their ultimate aim has always been to 'send an audience home happy' which they continue to do the world over. "Status Quo" is the authorized book of personal and professional photographs of the band taken between 1966 and 2005, plus hundreds of photos of rare memorabilia all compiled by Bob Young and edited by Rossi and Parfitt.
