LISTEN: Massive Wagons unveil charity single in tribute to Status Quo’s Rick Parfitt
Lancashire rock n’ rollers Massive Wagons have unleashed their new single in tribute to their musical hero Rick Parfitt.
One of the dizzying zeniths of their phenomenal Saturday night set at Winter’s End last month, the track is aptly entitled ‘Back To The Stack’ and, musically and lyrically, it’s packed full of deft nods to the late Status Quo legend.
A truly fitting homage to Rick, two minutes in vocalist Baz Mills urges: “Why don’t you raise your glass for Rick, cos I’m raising mine!”
Released globally on Monday 24th April along with the accompanying video, all proceeds from sales of ‘Back To The Stack’ will go directly to the Teenage Cancer Trust. You'll be able to buy it from Massive Wagons site.
