Re: Bands you think of as 'One person plus anybody'
Crazy Horse is an American rock band best known for their association with the musician Neil Young. Since 1969, fifteen studio albums and eight live albums have been billed as being by Neil Young and Crazy Horse. They have also released six studio albums of their own between 1971 and 2009.
I know Neil Young fired the band at one point so I don't know if that makes him a member but as above they recorded more albums with Young that they did on their own.

Re: Bands you think of as 'One person plus anybody'
Tak.
Totally get you on that one, I was coming from the angle of a moderately interested fan. Anyone who is a big fan of INXS will know they were so much more than MH and a few mates but to the casual fan, Hutchence wooul d be the first name (and possibly) only that comes to mind.

That's a curious one. As far as I know Crazy Horse the band existed as a separate entity and Neil Young happened to do a lot of work with them. Not sure whether he was really a member or whether it was just a very long running collaboration? I don't think they were ever just his backing band either.
Anyone?

Riley wrote most of the tunes during the band's best period (78-82) but I reckon Steve Hanley made the biggest contribution to their sound (and somehow managed to stay in the band for 20 years).
He was right of course. I think I read once that there were more than 60 members of The Fall over the years!

A lot of people would say Bon Jovi but that does overlook Ritchie Sambora’s talent as a guitarist. I personally felt Bon Jovi was a waste of his talent and he should have been in a better band.

That’s a little unfair on Martin Barre. He was a major part of the Jethro Tull sound for decades

Re: Bands you think of as 'One person plus anybody'
I just saw a video of him from a recent show. I honestly couldn't tell which song he was 'singing' until it reached the chorus and the other singers came in...
There's another one who should have just stopped long ago.
