The GoGos. Belinda Carlisle WAS the face and the voice of that group. She's who the media always wanted to talk to and was a big part of the reason (but not the only one, to be sure) why they didn't last (in the 80s) as a group. Carlisle ended up with the biggest solo career. Jane Wiedlin had one top 10 hit (Rush Hour). Two of the remaining three formed The Graces, but they didn't have a big hit.

Disagree on Nirvana. Listen to Bleach, then listen to everything else. Dave Grohl was an integral part of their sound and success.
I mean, I like you much more than that ass-clown troll that copied your user name, but you're gonna start closing that gap with posts like these.
Again *nerd alert* but anyone who knows a lot about the Police will explain that it was a true power trio and there's an argument that Stewart Copeland is the best drummer of the 20th century. The list of drummers that count him as an influence is long and varies from Chad Smith to Questlove to Dave Grohl and beyond.
But you're 100% right, most people only see Sting.
I agree with you.... Stewart and Andy are great players. Most people fixate on Sting as the main guy because of his voice. They are definitely a power trio.
Not sure if serious Velo but Lynne recently recorded a new ELO record on which he played all the instruments. So for Jeff Lynne it's 100% accurate.
