Difference between "un appel" and "un coup de téléphone"?

In my vocabulary, both terms translate as "a call." Now I was wondering if there's a difference between the two, in terms of content or usage? The same applies to the verbs appeler qn, passer un coup de téléphone à qn , and téléphoner à qn .

It seems to be an old-fashioned expression.
