The longest-running band still featuring its original lineup is the British rock band called "Status Quo." The band formed in 1962 in London, and its founding members were Francis Rossi (vocalist, lead guitarist), Alan Lancaster (bassist), Roy Lynes (keyboardist), John Coghlan (drummer), and Rick Parfitt (rhythm guitarist, backing vocalist). After Roy Lynes left the band in 1970, the remaining members continued to play together for over five decades, until Rick Parfitt's death in 2016. Even after Parfitt's death, the band decided to carry on with their original lineup, which makes them the longest-running band featuring all of their original members.
The longest-running band still featuring its original lineup is The Rolling Stones, who formed in 1962.
