Publisher's Summary
In Francis Rossi's explosive new memoir, I Talk Too Much, the Status Quo main man reveals for the first time the true-life stories behind the life and times of one of the best-selling rock singers in the world.
With over 100 million records sold worldwide in a career that mirrors the evolution of rock music, from the flower power '60s, with hits like 'Pictures of Matchstick Men', through the denim-clad '70s and classic Quo-tastic anthems such as 'Down Down', 'Rocking All over the World' and 'Whatever You Want', through the turbulent '80s, when they famously opened Live Aid ('Quo and Queen are probably the only two acts everybody remembers from that,' said Bob Geldof), through breakups, makeups, and a total of 65 hit singles and 32 hit albums (not including compilations and live albums), up to the tragic death of Rossi's partner, Rick Parfitt, in December 2016.
Along the way, Rossi has fathered eight children with three mothers, been through alcoholism ('I would drink 12 double tequilas before I could relax and have a drink'), cocaine addiction ('I had to have coke just to get out of bed. Until the day my septum dropped out of my nose') and accumulated and spent untold millions.

Telling it like it is
A great book, must read for any Quo fan. Michael Fenton Stevens was the perfect choice to narrate.

Fascinating
A brutally frank and open account of the life and times of Quo and Francis Rossi. What a surreal life these guys had. The highs, the lows, the personality clashes, the dynamism of the Rossi / Parfitt duo, the die hard fan base...An incredibly hard work ethic sustained amidst the perpetual chugging of booze and clouds of coke. An honest insight - from Francis’ perspective at least. Superbly narrated. You would think it is Francis himself talking to you. Highly recommended.
