Haven't seen The Firm listed yet. Arguably the best rock vocalist of all time, along with arguably the best guitarist of all time.

They didn't have much staying power (only 2 albums), but they were pretty good for a brief period of time.

So what's the definition of a supergroup? Audioslave is just RATM with a new lead singer. If they're a supergroup, then so is Van Halen.

---

But Audioslave was a completely different band. VH (or AC/DC) stayed the same just with a new singer.

---

I disagree on Van Halen. Sound with Hagar and Roth was just as different as Audioslave and Rage. Also, AC/DC isn't the same argument because Brian Johnson was unknown.

---

That's ridiculous. Yeah, the sound changed a little with Hagar but it was the same ****ing band. Rage & Audioslave we're completely different from Zach to Cornell.

---

It's literally the same exact situation. The only difference is one changed their name.

---

The music in one band changed drastically. The other didn't. I don't understand how someone can struggle with this concept.

---

It didn't change drastically. They both were alternative metal, Audioslave just didn't have the rapping and there was less funk. All bands change their sound over time. If Van Halen changed their name and recorded the same exact songs, they would be on this thread.

The correct answer.

They're my favorite band of all time but they're not a Supergroup. Page was well known but Jones was a studio musician and Plant & Bonham were unknown teenagers.

Shrug. I've heard him say that with his own voice. Take it up with him.

Damn Yankees are trash but the hair/butt rock from the 80s and 90s are all trash to me.

Are they? River of Deceit is an all time great song. After that? Did they have more than one album?

I'm NOT with Know Your Enemy on this one. They kind of were put together with Page + Jones as a supergroup. Then struck gold with Plant and Bonzo.

The Yardbirds' 1968 tour prove to be exhausting for the band, and as a result the group began to wind down. Believing the Yardbirds were on the brink of disbanding, Page planned to form a supergroup with Beck and himself on guitars, and the Who's Keith Moon and John Entwistle on drums and bass, respectively. Vocalists Steve Winwood and Steve Marriott were also considered for the project. The group never formed, although Page, Beck, and Moon did record a song together in 1966, "Beck's Bolero", in a session that also included bassist-keyboardist John Paul Jones.

The Yardbirds played their final gig on July 14, 1968 at Luton College of Technology in Bedfordshire. They were still committed to several concerts in Scandinavia, so drummer Jim McCarty and vocalist Keith Relf authorised Page and bassist Chris Dreja to use the Yardbirds' name to fulfill the band's obligations. Page and Dreja began putting a new line-up together. Page's first choice for the lead singer was Terry Reid, but Reid declined the offer and suggested Robert Plant, a singer for the Band of Joy and Hobbstweedle. Plant eventually accepted the position, recommending former Band of Joy drummer John Bonham. John Paul Jones enquired about the vacant position of bass guitarist, at the suggestion of his wife, after Dreja dropped out of the project to become a photographer. Page had known Jones since they were both session musicians, and agreed to let him join as the final member.
