John Coghlan's Quo are No.1 with 'No Return'.
John was the drummer with Status Quo from 1963 to 1981.
Since then, he has played with several notable musicians including the great Roy Wood.
Look out for a track called 'We Are The Boys (Who Make All The Noise'.
Now John has teamed up with new bandmates Rick Chase (bass), Mick Hughes (guitar) and Pete Mace (guitar). One of their main aims is to recreate the classic sound of Quo. That's the Rock period, not the psychedelic one .. although both are good.
Of the new song, one fan said it's "more Quo than Quo".
If you don't know Quo ... where have you been? Which planet? Which reality?
Quo maintain the status of Rock!

Hello Sister move up to No.3 with 'Paralyzed'.
They are Grace (on keyboards and bass), Gabriella (on guitar) and Scarlett (on drums), three sisters from the USA. Their father is a songwriter who was involved with a few hits in the 90s, so they have good musical pedigree.
In 2018, PCG Universal discovered the sisters through their social media and enrolled them in their program, but we know it's not about who you're signed to, it's the substance of your material that matters, and theirs is FAB.
The girls first hit The FAB Chart with 'Summer Time, and then followed that up with 'Middle Schooler' which was a FAB No.1. They also charted with 'Kids in an Adult World'.
Scarlett says "... there’s nothing greater than playing with sisters who love you. Music is the most fun thing in our lives ..."
