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.
the real quo. i saw them with this show in 1974. 1 minute and everybody stood on their tables and danced. thats what are live shows for. and quo were the perfect liveband ever
Balled my eyes out and screamed house down when i was about 10 to make my dad take me with him to see the mighty Quo at the oxford Apollo must have been 1984 treasure that day .. RIP Dad.. RIP Rickman
Balled my eyes out when i saw them twice at this anniversary gig at 20 years of age! Shame rossi wrecked the band,Alan had a great voice and presence on stage,way better than twattox,and John was the superb drummer for the outfit,as for Rick?
Good and rockin encore, quo always used it from 1972 on to this very day. Its real al lancasters song. His strong voice and solid bass vs the two guitars and driving drums give the song his charakter. Thanks for the music
Alan was an incredible guy and guitar 🎸 player. His singing was absolutely fantastic!!! I could listen to BYE BYE JOHNNY over and over again!!! RIP ALAN. I'm sure THE GOOD LORD asked you to sing and play Guitar 🎸 for HIM with your talents. Love Kathy Bartlett from Worcester, Massachusetts
@@photodom2000 Look at the bright side of being old. At the age of 60 now, some 19 years ago I've lost my best friend due to cancer at the age 42. Right after him I was diagnosed stomach cancer, but I'm stil going strong by now therefor, I hope you are in good healt and Godspeed.
will never forget you Rick. it was you who inspired me to play guitar and now I'm able to play brilliantly. thanks so much pal and thanks for the music. keep on rocking r.i.p.
Alan Lancaster and Rick parfitt were Quo .now together with there own band in heaven playing to the people in heaven different gigs in heaven. Bon Scott leader . Phil animal Taylor drums. Steve Clarke guitar 🎸
Big fan of the Quo beginning of the 80's..I remember watching this concert on TV .. that's what got me hooked..Ive seen them live numerous times.. first time was at Selhurst Park in 1984 on there End of the Road tour,and countless times since..now Rick has left us I don't listen to them..sad really.
G'day mate I'm from Tasmania, I've only ever seen status Quo once in Launceston, Tas, in November 2000 at the Silver dome, was about 4500 in the crowd. it was fucken awesome man, I was up the front dancing and singing their songs had a great time one I'll always remember. I've been a fan of theirs since 1974 and there is no way I'm gonna stop buying there albums. PS I want to go to England, soon can anyone tell whats the best time to go to see one of their concerts,please.
Marble Bar is one of the Hottest places in Australia and even the World, I'm fairly certain that Marble Bar hold the record for the most consecutive days of temperatures over 46 Degrees Celsius. Sharna, some of my fave bands are The Warumpi Band and No Fixed Address and Coloured Stone, Archie Roach is way cool. I'm pleased that you love the QUO!!
Alan was always my favorite too and the best singer in the group. How I loved him... His exit was the end of Status Quo, which Francis was responsible for.
Tante volte il brano musicale è musicale e tante volte è da ascoltare un talento musicista. Questo è il rock and roll .. ha nato così. più con gli anni con agiuta dei diversi stili musiche varie. abbraccio da Roma e buon caffè
I just woke up and I’ve got news that Alan Lancaster passed away today, I thought he was underrated musician, bassist, singer and songwriter, R.I.P Alan Lancaster
Status Quo lives with Andy Francis Rhino...still rocking..still giving all they have to us..¡ Tnanks¡...rip Rick live Alan and John¡¡¿..be gratefull...
Mudam os elementos do Status Quo mas a forma como tocam,o rock,continua, como no início,da banda.É sem dúvida a minha banda de rock,preferida.Parabéns!
@@bryemycaz saw them at Brighton xx tour. About 2.5 hours gig. The leads before the encore was a ball about two foot diameter. The roadies changed the leads and some poor sods job every night was to untangle that lot.
saw the QUO 74 liverpool empire then again last december fourty yrs later. rick died the day after very sad indeed. somebody cruely said have i ever thought of going to see take that!!

Meine Jugend mit 14jahren 1974 in Berlin mein erstes Konzert,und jeden Sonntag höre ich meine Lieblings band
Brilliant.
Still makes my spine tingle when they gather together in front of John.
This is from 82 , neck gig, spud had left and Pete kircher was on sticks ... 👍👍
Yes, of course.
Still gives me the tingles even to this day 😁
Alan was an incredible guy and guitar 🎸 player. His singing was absolutely fantastic!!! I could listen to BYE BYE JOHNNY over and over again!!! RIP ALAN. I'm sure THE GOOD LORD asked you to sing and play Guitar 🎸 for HIM with your talents. Love Kathy Bartlett from Worcester, Massachusetts

Haste vollkommen Recht.Grossartig waren sie.Durfte sie live erleben
Brilliant as usual ! Love them
This is the Quo I love listening to.
Status Quo, Awesome!!!
People don't understand how their were!
Saw this at the Glasgow Apollo when they recorded their live album in 1976. Best gig ever bar none.
You lucky bastard.......
@@Joop.23-2-63 In one respect yes, I saw them. In another, no. I'm now 66 and OLD.

Nigel Dawson Me too I can now play 3 chords brilliantly unfortunately can’t sing, on a positive note that’s never stopped anyone else.
They were better before this live
Total Rock n Roll. Fantastic!!.
Greg Mardell The great Alan Lancaster! miss your input Alan! Always thought you were the most talented one with the best voice¡!!!!
You gave us good time songs Rick RIP
Rick knew how to rock, RIP Rick. 🙏
r.i.p.rick, u were allways my favourite in the band mate, thanks for the memories.

R.I.P Rick Parfitt and R.I.P Chuck Berry,, brilliant version this is!!!!!
1975 On The Level BANG
Some may knock them but they were masters of their art
das ist schon geil, die ganzen alten haudegen nochmal auf einer bühne zu erleben!
what a gig that must have been,Lancaster was smthing else!
They wil never emulate the best of the best, The Frantic four...
Für mich sind nach fünfzig Jahren noch immer die Status Quo und CCR,da besonders John Fogerty,die Besten!!!!!!!

Great musicians the Status quo
This was GOOD. A taste of the past. Miss John though. But I guess you can't ''always det what you want''. Perfect upload. Thank You!
Love the start too!
Status Quo é imortal. Impressiona a vitalidade do Francis Rossi tocando até hoje. Alan Lancaster e Rick Partfitt deixaram muita saudade.
Bye, Bye Alan. Today it's a very sad day for all the Quo fans. R. I P.
I was at The Empire Pool Wembley twice to see them in the 70’s. no nonsense rock and roll 🤟🏻🤟🏻🤟🏻
Bye bye Johnny sempre nel cuore. ❤️
On ne se lasse même si on la connais par coeur !

Superb as they always were. I always wondered how they never got their guitar leads tangled up!
Oh they did mate. They did !
@@highdownmartin Yep Bye Bye Johnny was in the Encore and they refereshed the leads at that point.
@@bryemycaz saw them at Brighton xx tour. About 2.5 hours gig. The leads before the encore was a ball about two foot diameter. The roadies changed the leads and some poor sods job every night was to untangle that lot.
R.I.P. R. Parfitt..
Have to say I throught Peter.. Did a great job when he was in Quo ..
Brilliant

Although Spud isn't featured on here, this is a very fine version of the song and reminds us that Nuff was a pretty decent chanter too.
live at the n.e.c reissue will be out soon in the following week on October the 20th and it will have this live version on it!!
That’s the way quo should have been allways rip rick your missed
❤️❤️❤️❤️

I think Lancaster was by far the best singer and songwriter in the band.
In your opinion, I don't.
