"It's absolutely crazy that I'm not in the Rock and Roll Hall of Fame. But I'm in good company," Suzi Quatro told The Guardian on the release of her new album Freedom, whose title track quotes The Girl Can't Help It. The Guardian ↗
Asked about retirement, she has an answer that has followed her throughout her career. At thirty-five, she told a journalist: "I'll quit when I turn my backside to the audience on stage, shake it, and there's silence." At sixty-five, she rephrased it: "I'll quit when I turn my backside around and it shakes on its own." At seventy-five, by her own account, she said it for the last time, and seriously: "I'll quit when I no longer deliver my standard on stage. When I feel that, it's over." The Guardian ↗
On 1960s Detroit, where she grew up alongside Motown, Alice Cooper and Iggy Pop alike, she says: "What a city! We had Motown, which we all bowed down to, which raised us. But all those white rock'n'roll bands had a danger in them, an edge, that foot on the gas pedal. We'll never shake that off." The Guardian ↗
On SuperMusic.cz, Quatro has eighty songs. The most searched are If You Can't Give Me Love, Stumblin' In and Can the Can — all three with chords included.
