Concerning Keith really wanting to bring that album on the road it might have been an interesting setlist...lots of undercover? which songs of the album?
another warhorse section, we´re still BEFORE the Vegas years...

what do you think?

Back Ta Zero mighta got dirtier & funkier ....



ROCKMAN

lots of really bad fashion choices, that's for sure.

Would have been very interesting.

Maybe something like this?

Start Me Up
She Was Hot
Harlem Shuffle
Dirty Work
Gimme Shelter
Too Much Blood
Hang Fire
Worried About You
Slave
Sleep Tonight
Little T + A
Tops
Fight
Tumbling Dice
Miss You
Sympathy For The Devil
Street Fighting Man
Honky Tonk Women
Brown Sugar
Jumping Jack Flash
Satisfaction

That could have been it - quite convincing!

Was there ever a more annoying drum track?





It's not Charlie is it.

Embarrassing.

Got the last 8 right.

1985/86 Dirty Work Tour?

Dirty Work was released in 1986.

No doubt "Had It With You" would have been interesting to watch.

I think "One Hit to the body "would certainly be there.

Never thought about it before I saw the promo video, but if they made the cover so colorful so that it would pop out on the shelves, why did they cover it with red cellophane to render it black and white? ha ha

Oversized pastel suits, large hair, a lot of makeup. Mick with a growling but intact voice, Keith with his chops intact. A lot of coke. No Vegas concept, still rock and roll! I kind of miss it!

it was a great, albeit short tour. last time both ronnie and keith both had their full complement of chops. end of an era. sorry it seems most of you missed it.

Dunno about the tour, but Mick's hair would have probably looked like this:

One gig, but the circumstances could have been more joyous...

I think a tour would have looked ridiculous without Mick.

what's love got to do with it?

I have always wondered about this and I believe there have been multiple posts over the years speculating about the same thing. I suspect it would have been DW songs and rough versions of warhorses, as they were not happy with the response they got from Undercover and might have ignored those tunes. I think the Stones not touring after those two albums kept them from a sad sort of embarrassing ending. We got the Vegas era maybe, but at least we got an era.

Wasn't Undercover mostly praised by the reviewers round the world at the time?

This is what Mick would have looked like.

Mick and members of Status Quo together! Didn't happen again

Dandelion, I seem to recall mixed reviews. I loved Undercover, but remember reading some criticism... and then Mick dismissed it later on as "ok". It did not sell poorly, but it didn't do nearly as well as Tattoo You, so I think the band, or Mick anyway, did not see it as much of a success. Of course, we're talking 30 years ago, so my memory could be slightly off about this!

A quick search yields mostly positive reviews indeed of Undercover. Well. Forget what I said about that in relation to a DW tour then.
