The "Official Archive Series" continues with 'Vol. 2 - Live In London'! This was a hometown show recorded on December 19, 2012, during the band's 'Quo Festive' tour, just before Christmas. The setlist at the O2 Arena featured the lineup of Francis Rossi, Rick Parfitt, Andrew Bown, John 'Rhino' Edwards, and Matt Letley [in his final UK performance as Quo's drummer] delivering a slew of classic songs and even included a Christmas Medley with "Walking In A Winter Wonderland," "Rockin' Around The Christmas Tree," and Quo's own "It's Christmas Time."
