Ten Bands Who Got Better (Or Still Ruled) After Their Lead Singer Left

Oct 11, 2013 by chris hampton

Mick Fleetwood and the McVies had recorded nine studio albums before they brought in Lindsey Buckingham and Stevie Nicks to replace Bob Welch (who was himself a replacement for Danny Kirwan and Peter Green before him) for Fleetwood Mac's 1975 self-titled album. Instead of plunking down "Rhiannon" or "Landslide" from that album, let's pluck "Go Your Own Way" from the cornerstone of any record collection, Rumours (also one of the best-selling albums of all time) to really demonstrate just how Buckingham and Nicks made this band synonymous with cocaine, L.A., and the self-indulgent maximalism of the '70s. Somehow, I mean each of those things in a good way.
