ReRushed Posted January 24, 2017 Share Posted January 24, 2017 I can only think of a few off the top of my head: The PoliceU2Led ZeppelinCream Rush and the Who come close but don't quite make it.As someone pointed out earlier in this thread, Led Zeppelin did release an official album with Jason Bonham on drums. Did we ever come to a consensus on if the LZ album counted? I feel like that topic got lost in the Queen debate.Why wouldn't it count? Because it's a live album? Ehhh. It seems too far removed from the original thing. I say they count. Now if they had toured and recorded a new studio album with Jason Bonham on drums....But it's called Led Zeppelin, not Led Zeppelin + Jason Bonham! 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Maybe we could call it Led Zeppelin* That isn't what they called it though. ReRushed is right. If we're gonna use that argument to say Queen still does count, then we can't ignore it to say Led Zeppelin counts. The only thing I could think of to keep LZ in now is whether or not we're counting live albums. Did the op say just studio albums or do tours and live releases count as well?

As for Led Zeppelin, the line-up changed, they re-united and released an official album and dvd. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

As for Led Zeppelin, the line-up changed, they re-united and released an official album and dvd. ...yeah...yeah I agree. Definitely. But at least they used to count and had counted for a very very long time. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It was documented. It was released. It's in the official discography. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
