#JohnCoghlan from #StatusQuo. This is a no-brainer, really. My favourite drummer of my favourite band. Nobody plays shuffle like Spud.
#MattLetley also from The Mighty Quo. Despite the headphones, his arrival brought an enormous amount of energy to the band. And he's an amateur astronomer.
13th March 1981:
Status Quo released 'Never Too Late'.
It was recorded at Windmill Lane Studios, Dublin and entered the UK chart at #2.
