Quo's original line-up in 1962 - FR, AL, Jess Jaworski, Alan Key. No RP, no JC, no Roy Lynes. So what?
Andy having been a member of the band for 40 years (or 43, taking into account his participation in Hello sessions) and Rhino for 30 years, i.e. for a much longer time than Alan and John C, I think they deserve to be considered in the same category as the original members.

I think other board members would base 'membership' of the band on songwriting and shaping the evolution and direction of the band.The difference between what was on stage in March 2013 and what has been on offer since 86 was enormous.

Andy first became an official member in 1982 (34 years ago). Up til then he had only been a hired hand. No matter how long he and Rhino has played with the band, they will never be original members and never ever "concidered in the same cathegory as the original members". It's not the number of years that's important.

They're both good musicians, but that's as far as it goes, neither have anything to do with why I became a fan of Status Quo, in fact quite the opposite.

I love Creedence, but can barely put up with John Fogerty these days, MK II Deep Purple is the Purple for me, etc etc... It was the Golden Years. ( I love Bowie as well) Whitesnake with Marsden and Moody... Oh well.

I think other board members would base 'membership' of the band on songwriting and shaping the evolution and direction of the band.The difference between what was on stage in March 2013 and what has been on offer since 86 was enormous. Andy's writing contribution is enormous, he wrote lots of great songs, Andy co-wrote even more songs than Alan in 1978-1983 (18:12), he's the main writer of WYW, he plays keyboards, guitars, harmonica, he's a very influential part of Quo's sound since late 70's whether you like it or not. Did JC write a song on his own? Never. So yes, even by your criteria Andy is THE member. Same logic applies to Rhino.
