John Coghlan found fame as the drummer of Status Quo and was part of the band for nearly 20 years.
More recently, he has enjoyed a quiet life in the British countryside.
John has lived in the leafy village of Shilton in Oxfordshire.
Before this, he lived in Ballasalla, Isle of Man for around 10 years.
He lives in the Cotswolds

Shilton is part of the Cotswolds which has beautiful cottages and stretches of green open space.
It is the perfect spot for a relaxing walk or tipple in one of its traditional English pubs.
"Shilton is an attractive little village with stone cottages with stone roofs in the Cotswold style," Oxfordshire Villages states.
"In the centre of the village there is a ford across the Shill Brook and the stream forms an attractive rush-lined duck pond.
"An arched stone footbridge crosses the ford and near the pond is an old pump and a well."
Shilton is a two-hour drive from London, allowing residents a break from the hustle and bustle of the city.
John's former bandmate Francis Rossi has also opted for a quiet life away from the city.
He bought a property in Surrey in the 1970s that has since soared in value.
