Can You Name The Members of Your Fave Band?

Question

Honestly.

NPR radio blog opines that since liner notes are pretty much a dead thing, & young people are just downloading single songs (vs. entire albums), that far fewer can actually name band members.

Answer 1

LED ZEPPELIN



Robert Plant---Lead Vocals (damn he can sing)

Jimmy Page---Lead Guitar (amazingly brilliant man btw)

John Paul Jones---Bass, Mandolin, Keyboard, etc. (musical GENIUS)

John Bonham---Drums (possibly the best drummer ever)







Plus, I like



FLEETWOOD MAC



Lindsey Buckingham

Stevie Nicks

Christine McVie

John McVie

Mick Fleetwood



Of course I read the liner notes, they have awesome pictures and lyrics and sometimes info on the band. I don't think I have ever gotten a whole album on iTunes (or downlaoded it in any way).

My other fav. band....

Coheed and Cambria, only Claudio Sanchez's name comes to mind.



NPR is correct I believe, along with not knowing the names, also probably not having the lyrics written on liners/CD inserts make mis-heard lyrics more prevalent too.

Answer 7

I would imagine that fewer people can do it nowadays, but I still think that if they are your favourite band, you would have heard their names somewhere along the line!

Justin Chancellor - Bass

Danny Carey - Drums

Answer 8
