Status Quo

Status QuoStatus Quo are a British rock band (London, England) with strong boogie line. The group was founded by bassist Alan Lancaster and guitarist Francis Rossi in 1962. They began as a rock and roll freakbeat band called The Spectres. By 1967, with very little commercial success, they discovered psychedelia and changed their name to Traffic (later Traffic Jam, to avoid confusion with Steve Winwood's Traffic.) At this time the line-up also included organist Roy Lynes and drummer John Coghlan. Late in 1967 they recruited second guitarist Rick Parfitt and became The Status Quo, scoring Top 10 singles with Pictures Of Matchstick Men and Ice in The Sun.
Band From: United Kingdom, London - England
Band Members: Francis Rossi (vocals, lead guitar), Rick Parfitt (vocals, guitar), Andy Bown (keyboards), John 'Rhino' Edwards (bass guitar), and Matt Letley (drums)
