ULancaster waphila impilo enezigigaba ezimangalisayo.
Ubuntwana nobusha u-Alan Lancaster
Usuku lokuzalwa lomculi luyi-7 February 1949. Wazalelwa endaweni Peckham (London). U-Alan wakhulela emndenini ohlakaniphile ngokwesiko, owawuwuhlonipha futhi uvame ukulalela umculo.
Njengabo bonke abantu, uLancaster wafunda esikoleni samabanga aphezulu. Ngokumelene nesizinda sabanye ontanga, wayehlukaniswa ngendlela yokuqala yokuxazulula izinkinga ezingajwayelekile. Wayehlale ecabanga "ngokuhlukile", futhi kamuva, lesi sici sasiza kakhulu ekuqaleni komsebenzi wakhe wokudala.
Ufunde eSedgehill High School. U-Alan wayeyilungu le-orchestra yesikole. Lapho wahlangana noFrancis Rossi. Abafana babezwana kakhulu. Ngemva kwesikhathi esithile, banquma ukwakha ingqondo evamile, eyaletha kokubili ingxenye yokuqala yokuduma.
Indlela yokudala yomculi u-Alan Lancaster
Abangane besikole "bahlanganise" iqembu elishayayo: UFrancis wayephethe isiginci kanye namazwi, u-Alan wayephethe isiginci sebhesi kanye namazwi. Ngokushesha umshayi wezigubhu wajoyina iqembu. Igumbi lika-Alan laba isizinda sokuzilolonga seqembu.
Ukuzilolonga nokusebenza kanzima kwakusho ukuthi abaculi sebekulungele ukucula phambi kwezihlwele. Ngokushesha babonakala ejimini badlala ikhonsathi yokuqala.
Lapho u-John Coglan ejoyina uhlu, kwaqala umlando ohluke ngokuphelele weqembu. Kodwa ngaphambi kokuqashelwa, ibhendi yesigqi ikhiphe izingoma ezimbalwa ezingaphumelelanga.
Ngaphambi kokushintsha igama labo libe yi-Status Quo, ibhendi idlale ngaphansi kwesibhengezo se-Traffic Jam. Kubo kwakubonakala sengathi ngokushintsha igama, babezoyiqeda leyo ntaba “yeheita” eyayiwele phezu kwabo. Nokho, lokhu akuzange kuyixazulule nhlobo inkinga.
Abafana babesesimweni "sokulenga" kwaze kwaba yilapho u-Rick Parfitta onekhono ovela eqenjini le-cabaret elithi The Highlights ejoyina umugqa. Ekuqaleni, leli qembu lasebenza njengabahambisana nabahlabeleli ababodwa, kodwa i-discography yaqala ukugcwalisa izingoma zabo kanye nemidlalo ende.

Ithimba le-Status Quo lijabulise "abalandeli" ngokujwayelekile kwamakhonsathi. Le ndlela yasiza ukuzuza ibutho eliqotho labalandeli. Ukudlala kuMkhosi Wokufunda kanye namafesti Amakhulu AseNtshonalanga kwandisa kakhulu igunya leqembu lonke, kuhlanganise no-Alan.
Khona-ke abaculi basayina inkontileka ne-Vertigo Records. Kule lebula, abaculi baqophe i-disc Piledriver, ethathe indawo yesi-5 ehloniphekile emqhudelwaneni ohlonishwayo.
