17th November 2009

Rolf Harris & Status QuoChristmas is almost here and Rolf Harris and Rick Parfait of Status Quo have a treat in store for us with Rolf's festive number, “Christmas In The Sun”.

Benn Todd, in his article today for the Daily Mail, writes:

“It has been 40 years since Rolf Harris topped the Christmas charts. And in a market dominated by young acts he has chosen an unlikely partner to help repeat the 1969 success of Two Little Boys.

“The Australian entertainer has teamed up with Status Quo singer and guitarist Rick Parfitt - who is a relatively young 61 years old - to record Christmas In The Sun in a bid to score a lucrative festive hit.

“The song, due to be released on December 7, has been written by Harris, 79.

“Talking of the collaboration, due for release on December 7, Harris said: 'It’s a positive, hard-driving sound, lively and bouncing with good times, laughter and tons of fun. I couldn’t ask for more.'”
