John Coghlan is a great Drummer.
A true Legend!
The most humble man in rock! What a great guy, would love to have a pint with him, I bet he could tell some stories! 👍
Met John Coughlan in Hawaii bar in Isle of Man where he stayed,great for me as I was a quo fanatic,told me his dad came from knightswood in Glasgow and loved playing the Glasgow Apollo where they played 3 nights in a row and first band to do that ,nice modest man.
John. u Rick Francis and Alan will always b the real Quo, the frantic four was a brilliant tour. I'm a fan 40 years and proud.
You forgot Andy!
Ich auch
I'm so glad there are us loyal fans that respect him rest in peace buddy ❤
The drummer of the REAL Quo, they will go down in history, truly the best line up by a million miles, I will always love them
Thanks John for your kind words, long live the Quo!
I saw Quo perform live early in 1972 soon after the release of Dog of Two Head when Frances Rossi was known as Mike Rossi and Rick Parfitt was known as Ritchie Parfitt. It is still today the best (and loudest) gig I have ever been to. That line up with John and Alan could never be beaten.
John...Great Quo Drummer
from the heart the same as your music John you are a good man.
thanks John, could listen to you for hours. the best drummer ever talking lovingly about the best rythym guitarist ever. first saw you in glasgow in 1980 as a 14 year old, loved you ever since. heartbroken about rick. x
nice tribute well spoken John god bless treasure your memories forever
What a fabulous interview and John is such a down to earth guy and a true drumming legend. Fab tribute to Rick too.
What a humble guy
Used to do a couple of days a week driving a truck for a haulage company I worked for totally sound nice guy
@@danbrooks3697 thanks for that
Always admired his playing,never seen him interviewed before, what a really nice guy, very respectful of his band mate Rick.
only one Rick Parfitt Quo will never be the same
John is a real gent, he loved Rick, the Fantastic Four will always be Quo.....Not the old granny stuff they've churned out for too many years. I'm just so glad I saw the real Quo before Rick left us. Rest In Peace Rick.
Well said, let the "current Quo" play "the old granny stuff" at Butlin's. Cheers - Rob - Aussie Quo Boogie Fan
Yes I much prefered Quo as Francis, Rck, Alan and John. After that I just saw them as a tribute band. Rick burnt the candle at both ends and his fans knew it would end this way. My best memory was 2 nights on the trot of gigs at Lewisham Odeon in 1977 when I thought the balcony would come down because of the fans jumping up and down. Forty-Five Hundred Times was the best track ever. God bless Rick!
R.I.P Mr Parfitt x
Spud,you're a legend.RIP Rick. I've gone to all Quo Dublin concerts for years ,including frantic Four and then the first " Electric" concert the day after Rick announced his resignation from the band. Little did we realise then how Ill he really was.Rhino ( forgot the words) and Andrew sang a bit more than usual.Francis was immense. R😎Ck on Rick.
great words for a great rocker rip rick . you will be truly missed.
Thanks guys for many years of enjoying your music.
Great interview. Heart-breaking though how many great plans there were with Ricky next year... Cheers John.
Dublin two years ago was my last quo gig.... brilliant nite.. also have the brilliant dvd. a brilliant band
John didn't look impressed when the interviewers phone rang, Rick will be missed by myself, John gave a great interview however, and I thank him for that, in his busy time
Good to see you reunite with the Quo John..shouldn"t have left in the first place..nice man you are John..
Thanks John for the kind words on Rick. For what it's worth you can look at yourself in the mirror and say you stayed true to yourself and what QUO was all aboout. The biggest and best groove HARD rock band ever. Quo after John and Alan leaving was in all fairness a joke. The frantic four in their prime and still friends made incredible rock that no other bad has ever come to match. The band out there now with just Franic Rossi ( who likes to think he is Quo) is just a lame rip off. Thanks though for great memories and killer music. Cheers
Rossi absolutely destroyed Quo. A total narcissist
Delighted to hear John say at 8:05 that he wanted to perform A Year. This was an absolute gem, what I'd do to hear an old live rendition of this classic.
Me too. Wonderful song from Quo's greatest album for me.
I got rat faced pissed with John on the Isle of Mann in 81.We couldn't walk.😁😁R.I.P. Rick
Love you John, you drum from the heart, great drumming. Rick will rock with you for ever :-)
Who else was at the Half Moon gig? John, a great drummer and part of the original best Quo line-up.
R.I.P. Rick Parfitt
Top drummer...miss Rick never got to see the quo...gutted
A good honest chat Love John’s drumming
Legend. :)
John you are my first drummer on my life
Why they ever sacked John and Alan I never know , beating heart of Quo.
Rossi started being a prat full of cocaine and drink
only just found out about rick,s death. and it made me cry.thanks for the music
Loved the Quo for a long time
Very nice John.thx..
April, Spring, Summer and Wednesdays is elite.
Gran baterista 👏👏👏👏👏👏🎩
im a huge fan of status quo.Rick John Alan and Francis see them loads of times I is there going a status quo live on tv original band members tribute concertt to rick parffitt
Proper fellow John, great company along with Rick and Alan, not so sure about the other one.
These men and other bands of that time recorded so many quality songs that it leaves today's so called 'bands' in the fucking dust, these quality guys where truly talented and fucking immense on stage
Plus , some of those bands in the early 70s were well stoned and to play their hearts out as they did was amazing 😊
you all said it, i'll say it too, considering that Rick passed out just a few days before the interview , the interviewers attitude was kind of offensive, i cant describe it more politely....
If you listen to the albums blue for you & on the level What a great drummer John was!!!
goodbless you john.
Rick was Rick .
Tanta salute per te carissimo ❤

So the pro interviewer shows up to interview Spud days after Rick Parfitts death and this dickheads freckin phone goes off!!.... Anyways. John i will allways think of you as Spud allways. sorry Spud. I have and allways will be a QUO fan till the last thing on this earth that works on me!! my ears. Thank you for being that angry man on the sticks. You were simply the best drummer Status Quo ever had. Thank You very much. Chook.
Great tribute by Coghlan / sick interviewer
nice bloke..............
That's him now !
So humble despite his treatment from Rossi edging him out of the band. Doesn't seem to harbour any resentment.
I don ' t think so......
Coghlan was, and still is cool as fuck.
They shared Hotel- Rooms, I think...
Where is the video for a year????????
Bless 😊
