History

Parfitt had suffered a number of health issues throughout his life, including a number of heart attacks. On 14 June 2016, Parfitt suffered a fourth heart attack after performing with Status Quo in Antalya, Turkey. Following this, Parfitt retired from touring with the band for health reasons, and started to work on a number of projects, including his solo album. Prior to his death in December, Parfitt had completed vocal and guitar tracks for the album, and the rest was completed by producers and collaborators.[3][2]
