Francis Rossi & Hannah Rickard announce ‘We Talk Too Much’on May 3rd through earMUSIC. 

Francis Rossi, founder of the mighty Quo, has confirmed a very special vinyl edition of his collaborative album ‘We Talk Too Much’. Recorded with vocalist Hannah Rickard. ‘We Talk Too Much’ will be made available on 180g Black Vinyl, packed in a premium-quality gatefold jacket – the very first LP format release for this album. This LP edition will also include the previously unreleased Bonus Track ‘Broken Memory’.

This album, originally released in 2019, added another chapter to Francis’ incredibly successful career; ‘We Talk Too Much’ was his highest charting solo release so far and in fact in the UK landed at No.1 in the Country Album Charts, and also No.1 in the Independent Album Breakers Chart.

The pair met when Hannah Rickard worked with Status Quo on the hugely successful ‘Aquostic’ projects. Reconnecting with one of Rossi’s true loves, this is a collection of Country-flavoured duets, all of them exclusive to this release. “We Talk Too Much” boasts writing credits for Rossi and Rickard, as well as Quo stalwart Bob Young, this album has been a true labour of love.

Francis said of the impending release, “It is great that ‘We Talk Too Much’ is getting a vinyl release. It looks fantastic. This album is close to my heart, it’s a different kind of sound to what I do with Quo, but I love this music. ‘Broken Memory’ also deserves to see the light of day, so I am glad we’ve been able to include that as an extra”.

An important record within Francis Rossi’s catalogue, ‘We Talk Too Much’ shows not only his versatility, but also something of the man himself. By teaming up with Hannah Rickard, a truly special album was created, one that is suitably celebrated on this vinyl edition.
