Rick Parfitt Biography | English Musician Singer & Songwriter - Rick Parfitt Life Story

Rick Parfitt was born on October 12, 1948 in Woking, Surrey, England as Richard Parfitt. He has been married to Lyndsay Whitburn since August 2006. They have two children. He was previously married to Patty Beedon and Marietta Boeker.Rick is one of Englands' greatest rhythm guitarists, his rock solid style has always been the core of the Quo sound. Also known as 'The Womorr' (The Wild Old Man Of Rock and Roll) , he has written some of Quo's most memorable songs including '"Whatever You Want", "Backwater" "Living on an Island"' and "Rain". If you've seen Quo live you'll know the rush you get when Rick steps up to the front of the stage and hammers out the intro to 'Caroline' or 'Paper Plane'. The enduring partnership of Rossi and Parfitt is the thing that keeps Quo rocking and even though they are very different characters, after more than 40 years together they are still the best of mates. Once known as the 'Wild Man' of rock, Rick insists that he has now learned to relax and now is a 'Mild Man' of rock. The white Fender Telecaster that is Rick's main guitar is a 1965 model with all the original Fender pickups and parts except for the bridge which has been changed to a Badass bridge, because he attacks the guitar and plays so hard he would tear his wrist on a normal Telecaster bridge.The gauge of the strings Rick uses are: .14 .17 .26w .36w 46w 56w. (these are heavy gauge strings!)e also uses an original Gibson SG which is tuned to an E chord. Both Rick and Francis use a number of open tunings and capos in the Quo set, between them they have 18 Guitars on the road.Apart from the famous two Telecasters, They also use a 1981 Zemaitus for 'Forty Five Hundred Times' tuned to a B tuning with a .60 gauge bottom E string, a Schecter, a Fender Esquire that Rick uses on the medley tuned to G,G,D,G, B, D with a capo on the second fret, a Giffin and a Chet Atkins Acoustic used for 'Gerdundula'. For 'Whatever you Want' Rick and Francis use a normal tuning but with the bottom E string tuned down to a D.As Francis, Rick uses two 4x12" 8 ohm Marshall cabinets, a 100 watt JCM 800 Lead Series amp and sometimes a JCM 900. For effects, Rick also uses a Roland GP8 signal processor, which has three different chorus/flange settings and three overdrive s ettings.Like Francis, Rick also uses a Vox AC30 which is fed out to the front system and mixed with the Marshalls.I'll never forget the day Heidi died. I sat on the lawn with her, having pulled her out of the pool. I sat on the lawn with Richard beside me and he said, "I'm sure I just saw her hand move, Dad." And I said, "You didn't." We were just waiting for the ambulance. Just sat with her in my arms. It was terrible, terrible. And that was that. I went off the rails and poor Marietta stayed at home and I was away. I buried myself in my work. Management at the time did say to me, "Look, do you want to tour?' and I said, "Yes, I do." I also remember Cliff Richard coming up to the house one day and saying to me, "She was too good for this world. God wanted her back," which was complete and utter bollocks. I didn't quite get what anybody was trying to say to me. I had priests come up the house. None of them made any sense to me at all. My little Heidi's gone and you're telling me God wanted her back. Well, I wanted her here. I ran out in the garden one night, going out of my mind, and I ripped my shirt open. I looked up and I said, "If you've got Heidi let me know, will you? Give me a sign."And of course, you don't get any. Life went on and you learn to live with it, but you never get over it. Never.
