Description
There are groups like the status quo. groups that have achieved 60 his singles, 22 of which in the top ten British? more than any other group in any decade! ? that appeared more often in the top of the pops than any other group ? 100 times! ? and that still reach the 33rd album of originals with the same freshness ever. with a title that well reveals the intentions of those who are already an indissociable part of British pop culture, this ?the party Ain?t over yet? That's it: a party. a very rock party, with a lot of rock, guitars and, above all, fun.
Artist
Two south London fellows called Alan Lancaster (bass) and Francis Rossi (guitar - known as Mike Rossi (4) during the band's early years) founded the band in 1962. First name The Paladins soon changed to The Spectres (2) (another previously-documented early name, The Scorpions, is disputed).
In 1966, the band changed their name to "The Traffic", shortly thereafter to The Traffic Jam (2). The lineup consisted of Lancaster, Rossi, John Coghlan (drums) and Roy Lynes (keyboard).
A year later, the band changed name once again to "The Status Quo". Rick Parfitt (guitar) joined the band. Their first hit record, "Pictures of Matchstick Men", was released. "The" was omitted from the name of the band in 1969, known thereafter as just "Status Quo"
