We are watching a thing on Genesis and I can't really think of others. Sting maybe?

You think The Police were better after Sting left?

Not really fair. Genesis became an entirely different band. What had been edgy & a bit weird, turned really commercial.

Oddly, so did Peter Gabriel.

I hate Peter Gabriel. I think he is awful. That's why I'm asking.

The only ones that I can think of that you may have heard of are the Commodores and maybe Earth, Wind & Fire.

I personally prefer Genesis post-Gabriel.

Chicago got better live, but their best studio material was with Cetera.

One could argue that the Impressions became a better band for the times with the departure of Jerry Butler, and then a different band again with the departure of Curtis Mayfield. A lot of metalheads will say that Black Sabbath was better with Ronnie James Dio than Ozzy. No one will ever say that about Van Halen.

Agreed and agreed.

I just didn't think Spaulding would know the Impressions.

I immediately thought the same thing....but I know people that think differently.

They should be killed

For Journey, Arnel Pineda is great. Big fan even of his stuff with Zoo. Doobies? MM was a mismatch there. Better yes, but a mismatch.

You sure he is not talking about Perry replacing Rollie for Journey?

I'll go with AC/DC as well.

Sammy was a better singer for VH, but VH was a better band with DLR. Then again, Ed wrote all of the music regardless, so...

The people writing AC/DC are insane.

Bon Scott >>>>>>>>>>> Brian Johnson. It's not even close.

Also, Van Halen but I mean Gary Cherone Van Halen > Hagar Van Halen.

Bon Scott > Brian Johnson but he was a great replacement. Cant go wrong with either guy imo

Fleetwood Mac blew up with Buckingham Nicks

Phil Collins > Peter Gabriel

Pittmike - yes, I know the original reference was for Perry coming on board. But Pineda is absolutely outstanding, and has a tearjerker story to go with it. Perry just seems to come across as having a jerk story.

Actually, I thought I had typed something indicating a before and after status for Journey ... apparently I did not or I deleted it or I need to start drinking to figure out which delusions are real.

I also was going to write asterisked notes for AC-DC and The Doobies wherein there were strengths in the before and after products each, but then I figured I'd go with brevity for a change. I never choose right.

Just trying to help. Perry is really an oddball.

Some would say Rage Against the Machine


They'd be wrong



Many Oasis fans would tell you the band didnt need Liam


Also wrong

I was a Mosley fan and Courtney love wasn't good either. Mike Patton. Hmmm. Well just amazing and honestly their best vocalist and heart of the band. Bruce was also a solid replacement in maiden.
