Rick Parfitt “Long Distance Love“ Official Lyric Video

Leading up to the posthumous release of Rick Parfitt’s upcoming debut album ‘Over And Out’, earMUSIC launches the lyric video for the second single ‘Long Distance Love’. The song is now available as an instant gratification track as part of the album pre-order as well as on all streaming services: iTunes: Spotify: Chris Wolstenholme of Muse features on the track, which was written by John David who previously wrote a number of hits for Quo including the UK top 10 single ‘Rollin’ Home’, which the band performed on the ‘Aquostic: Live at The Roundhouse’ album . Chris Wolstenholme was asked to replicate one of Rick’s guitar lines and said, “Take it from me, it was harder than anyone would imagine. Rick’s strength as a player was his immediately recognisable style; very staccato, like his left hand was constantly bouncing off the strings. It’s very hard to do, and I’ve never seen anyone else do it quite like him. But then, there never was anyone quite like Rick.” The upcoming album ‘Over And Out’ is but the latest element of the incredible legacy and body of work that Rick Parfitt leaves. A testament to his talent, his winning way with words, an incredible joie de vivre and a spirit that never flagged. He’ll be missed but ‘Over And Out’, due for a release on March 23rd, 2018, is a great way to remember him. Gone but not forgotten. #statusquo #rickparfitt
