J2112YYZ Posted November 20, 2018 Share Posted November 20, 2018 But what if a solo artist is in your top five with other bands? We have to change our top fives because you have to take everything so literally? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Rutlefan Posted November 20, 2018 Share Posted November 20, 2018 (edited) No order: Sufjan StevensJohnny CashColin NewmanJeff BuckleyPat Benatar I would have included John Lennon and Jeffrey Lee Pierce (of The Gun Club) as they were both solo artists at one point, but the stuff I most like from them was done as part of a band which was more than a backing band (Pat's band was more than a backing band but they were marketed under her name, so).
