Really sad to see this. I knew Alan wasn't well, but still a shock to see this awful news.
R.I.P. Alan.

Nice tribute on the official page…
Alan Lancaster - 1949 - 2021
It is with great sadness that we report that Alan Lancaster - one of the original members of Quo, has passed away at the age of 72.
Alan suffered for many years with Multiple Sclerosis, but was able to play a series of concerts with the original 'Frantic 'Four in 2013/2014'.
Quote from Francis Rossi:
I am so sorry to hear of Alan’s passing. We were friends and colleagues for many years and achieved fantastic success together as the Frantic Four alongside Rick Parfitt and John Coghlan. Alan was an integral part of the sound and the enormous success of Status Quo druring the 60s and 70s. Although it is well documented that we were estranged in recent years, I will always have very fond memories of our early days together and my condolences go to Dayle and John’s family.
Quote from Status Quo Manager Simon Porter:
This is such sad news and my sincere condolences go out to Dayle and the family. It was an absolute pleasure to be able to reunite the original line up for two sellout tours in 2013/2014 and to give Status Quo Frantic Four fans a final legacy and such a lasting memory. Although Alan was not in the best of health even then, he got through the tours with determination and grit and was a pleasure to work with.

Clearly need a proof reader. To be fair by the time they put it on Facebook they’d corrected it. |
