RIP Rick and Alan: They and this band are the reason I grew my hair, bought a Tele, learned to play guitar, joined a band, made lots of lovely noise, love rock music, still do so after after 40+ years, etc, etc....... Easily the best live band I've seen. Much better songwriters and musicians than they've ever been given credit for. Despite being predominantly a guitar player, I've also played bass in bands plenty of times, and when doing so have always concentrated on producing a thumping Lancaster approach. The only way.... No nonsense rock n roll.
I saw them in 2013/14 at Hammersmith Apollo, absolutely incredible atmosphere and music as well, watching Rick really hammering those chords out had to be seen to believe, just a shame Francis didn't want to do it again anymore....what concerts they were
Dad’s best mate growing up was Alan at school. I grew up in Southampton but travelling up to London to see family every year at Christmas, blasting Status Quo cassettes through the car speakers, singing my heart out was highlight of my childhood! 😂🤟🏽🎸 These two songs were my favourite Quo songs. Alan was a lovely man. Green tiles on the roof of his house! I will always remember that! 😂 Brings a tear to my eye every time I see videos. Good will and peace to everyone ✌🏽
ALAN CHARLES LANCASTER otherwise known as NUFF, has passed away in Sydney, his home for 45 years. The founding member and the backbone of STATUS QUO had been suffering from Multiple Sclerosis for many years. Alan battled on bravely, performing at QUO's Reunion gigs in 2013 and 2014. Even though he had MS, Alan's performance and his vocals were the strongest of the three. My favourite member of QUO is Alan Lancaster. I had the pleasure of having a beer and a smoke with Alan at a Sydney pub gig, in Five Dock, when he had The Lancaster Bombers and The Lancaster/Brewster Bands in the late 80's. We had a longer chat at The Lewisham Hotel as well. These were dirty, grungy hotels, though this didn't phase the great man of the people. Alan was the most beautifil man, very humble, down to earth and a great guy to talk with and have a laugh. Vale Alan ( Nuff ) Lancaster RIP mate, you were one of the greatest Rockers of all time.
quo at their finest....not just most of the time...all of the time.....still blows me away ten years later to listen to this.....how fcking good were a bunch of old men.....man they tame any group around....
From an American perspective, some of the best riffs ever. This is what rock is meant to be. Wish I'd gotten to see them live. This will have to suffice...
Judie was it the Music Bowl in Melbourne in 1976? I was there too and I was also 16. I bought Quo Live the day it came out in 1977 and in 1978 used to listen to it every night while studying for my HSC. It got so I couldn't study if it wasn't on (I passed BTW!). I still know the whole album note for note.
Nothing beat the anticipation of standing in the line up at the Glasgow Apollo waiting to see these absolute geniuses do their stuff. The Old Quo were the only Quo
Pretty cool to see 4 guys in their 60s (I guess) rocking so hard. Unfortunately, I'd never heard of the band, or the songs, and I don't even recognize any of their names (and I listen a lot to the "Deep Tracks" satellite channel and often learn of bands I'd never heard of before). Maybe they're one of those British bands who never hit it big in the USA (where I am). In any event, so awesome to see them still enjoying playing, and more so that so many people came to see them once again. EDIT: Wikipedia says that "They have had over 60 chart hits in the UK, more than any other rock band" and yet a fairly knowledgeable (and older) American like me didn't know of this band. I must check them out some more.
Nice that you’ve found the music. It’s a mystery to me why they never got famous in the USA. I’m from Holland. Born in 1970. Always loved the early frantic 4 Quo. I had myself a Little succes in Holland with the same kind of music. Played 3 times as support act of Quo. What a great band they are. Especially love their 70ties music.
A few extra pounds, a few less hair but still so much energy. The "real and original" Quo rocked my childhood (thanks Dad!), wagged my teenage years and now that I'm a "little" older (with few extra pounds too) still makes my feet stamp and my head shakes. Respect for this legendary band !
This is the real Quo,its what the true fan wants.not the wishy washy crap thats been churned out for the last 30 years with the odd exception, just imagine what great songs they could have written.

Nice to see Rossi actually trying for once, this is the real Quo.

Shepherd's Chapel Network !!!!!!! Chapter by Chapter / Verse by Verse !!!!!!!
Saw them in Melbourne Australia 2003
They are still touring. Have seen then last December for the 3rd time. They're still a blast!
there will never be another band like this , Heavy Rifffs
I've seen Quo loads of times in the 70's, but I envy everyone who saw this tour.
My husband as a 16 year old in Australia saw his first ever concert. Status quo.i have lost count of how many copies of quo live we've gone through

Saw them at Glasgow Apollo, 3 nights in a row in 1977. Totally and completely owned the place, the last night was fuckin mental.
I saw them at the Glasgow Apollo in the early 70's what a atmosphere and concert, never to be forgotton.
RIP and God bless you, Rick, for all the fun and enjoyment your talent has spread over the years'
Still can’t believe Rick and Alan are gone😢😢😢😢
yet they covered in news in about 2 minutes , in fact BBC didn't even mention Alan I was remember
My teenage years were all about the music then in the early/ mid 70’s, remember waiting for new quo albums to be released. Miss those great days.
Ma Kelly's to blue for you an incredible run of albums
This line up was the best, so powerfull, energetic and magic... Unfortunately 2 of the Frantic-4 RIP... Real Quo is history...
"The Magnificent Status Quo"
Nothing beat the anticipation of standing in the line up at the Glasgow Apollo waiting to see these absolute geniuses do their stuff. The Old Quo were the only Quo
little lady if that would have released as a single it would have been a rock classic
Doesn't get better than that, cheers Cookie Aust.

the same old green guitar in 1985 live aid
The green Telecaster. I think it's actually part of him...
That Esquire Rick was playing!
Worst thing about this is why oh why did they not do it years earlier
BYE BABY. ILY
6:09 G tuning ? Sounds like Down Down intro
Not quite sure why Rossi denies Quos past, the current Quo line up attemps some of Ricks songs, embarrassing

In what way? They're all proficient on their instruments. Don't like the song necessarily but the writing and playing they're good
John could have practiced before the show. Good god, he's awful!
