Status Quo's Rick Parfitt Recuperating From Illness
. The veteran guitarist was flown home by air ambulance earlier this week and had tests at London's Royal Brompton Hospital, where it was discovered a graft from his quadruple heart bypass in 1997 had become furred. The 65-year-old underwent surgery to have a stent inserted which corrected the problem. Simon Porter, Quo's manager was delighted to hear Parfitt was on the mend and revealed the band would be announcing a new project soon: "We are all obviously delighted Rick has made such rapid progress," he said, "especially as the band is shortly to unveil another exciting and innovative new project - details of which will be announced in the next couple of weeks." more on this story Classic Rock Magazine is an official news provider for antiMusic.com.
