Music Trivia -> Better Off Solo -> D
Sometimes a lead singer gets kicked out of a band, or leaves when their head gets too big for them. How well did they do on their own?
Band | Name | Comments & Submittor Name | ||
| Deliverance | Paul Janz | Christian rock group formed in Germany by Canadian born brothers Ken, Danny and Paul Janz whose only claim to fame in North America was the minor 1979 hit 'Leaving LA'. Returning to Canada in the 80s, Paul went solo, and charted over a dozen hits in Canada between 1985-1993. His biggest (and only Top 10 hit) was 'Every Little Tear' in 1990 - whistledog | ||
| Destiny's Child | Beyonce | The sales of her solo albums speak for themselves. - shesoul | ||
| Digital Underground | Tupac Shakur | He was never in the limelight with this band, now look at him. He's making songs beyond the grave! - Paul Warren | ||
| Dream Theater | John Petrucci | He's got an awesome instrumental prog metal album. I don't have it, but I've listened to some of it on Last.fm. - 2:49 AM | ||
| Duran Duran | Andy Taylor | Andy released two albums in his solo career after leaving Duran Duran, but mostly played guitar and produced for other musicians. He now has left the group *twice*, this time after the group's big reunion tour with the classic lineup. He is a pretty good singer in his own right, but underrated, and had problems working with the rest of the group. - Lisa |
