Quo II - Parfitt, Rossi and...Harris?

Rick Parfitt and Rolf Harris
Nov 18, 2009 Updated Nov 20, 2009

Veteran entertainer Rolf Harris is planning an assault on the Christmas charts...backed by Status Quo.

Rolf's last large-scale Christmas success was with Two little Boys, which dominated yuletide sales 40 years ago.

His new song, Christmas In The Sun, was inspired by memories of growing up in WA in the 1930s.

Speaking of Quo's contribution to the track, 79 year old Rolf said that the boys had given the song "A positive, hard-driving sound", while Quo's Rick Parfitt quipped "Forget Rock 'n' Roll, this is Rick 'n' Rolf."
