R.I.P. Alan Lancaster. This tour proved that advancing years is no barrier to greatness. You were such a big part of one of the best bands of the 60's, 70's and 80's and were never the same after you left

Dont be pathetic. Francis wrote every single hit that made Quo popular in the first place. Alan had nothing to do with the bands early success. The core of the band was always Rick and francis, and Alan just had it coming with his stupid alpha male attitude

Goodbye Alan Lancaster. You were the heart and soul of Status Quo writing classics like Backwater and many others classics before Francis Rossi took over the song writing. Quo were never the same again without you after the early 80's. So glad you made a comeback for the Frantic Four tour. So many memories to remember. 🎸RIP.

Alan Lancaster 7/02/1949 - 26/09/2021 Bassist/Singer/Songwriter/ Producer/Genius of STATUS QUO fame, has died aged 72 of Multiple Sclerosis at his Sydney home, surrounded by his family. Born in London, he moved to Australia in 1976 after marrying his beautiful wife Dayle. Alan wrote and co-wrote many classic Rock songs The 9 1/2 minute Psych/Rock song "Is It Really Me, Gotta Go Home" was written by the Genius of Alan Charles Lancaster. Ma Kelly's Greasy Spoon album 1970 on the Astor / Pye Label. Produced by the late / great John Schroeder. Anyone who met Nuff would know first hand what a beautiful, sweet and charming gentleman he was. I had the pleasure of socialising with Alan at a few gigs in the late 80's, at some of his gigs with The Lancaster Bombers and The Lancaster / Brewster Band and The Party Boys, the latter having 2 Chart Topping Hits. " Hold Your Head Up " by Argent and " He's Gonna Step On You Again " by John Kongos. Alan produced a multi-platinum selling album for Pianist Roger Woodward.

I know I went to the Wolverhampton Civic Hall gig and I cannot begin to say how much it meant to me to see the original Quo line up for the first time. Unfortunately I am one of the millions of fans that missed out on Quo in the seventies due to being too young. They are the only reason I wish I was born 10 years earlier. I have seen Quo 32 times since The End Of The Road tour and while I don't wish to sound disrespectful to today's Quo but I felt that night that I was seeing the real Quo.

Technically Rossi never had anything out of the ordinary or ground breaking, But he was and still is a really solid 'meat and potato's” lead guitarist. What he did have back then though, in those days at least... was great lead melody. I am sure he bounced ideas off the rest of the band back then to make it so. Always hard to do that. Be he was good at putting those lead melodies together. That era has gone. Never mind. As Pete Townshend said. It's all been done before, there's no new melodies left to write. Oh and I have been playing the guitar for about 45 years. I can even remember a few old Quo songs. 😉

Good on you Francis. You went along fully with this reunion of your former bandmates. And your playing is great! We know that you've said that: "you actually prefer playing the more 'lighter' Status Quo songs". But fair dues....you played great (particularly on Just take me). It's just such a pity that you couldn't include these 2 songs in your current set....going forward. It's what real *QUO* fans really want to hear. All the best.
