Greatest multi-act peformer
Which musical artist had the greatest sustained success being a major player in at least 2 different bands. I don't mean staying in a band that just replaced a lead singer a few times and this doesn't include someone that went solo and killed it.
For instance:
Jack White:
-The White Stripes
-The Raconteurs
-The Dead Weather
Dave Grohl:
-Nirvana
-Foo Fighters
Jimmy Page:
-The Yardbirds
-Led Zeppelin
I'll leave some of the other obvious ones for you all.

Neil was in Buffalo Springfield too...
I would also consider his on and off again bromance with Pearl Jam as something worth mentioning on his behalf.

Re: Greatest multi-act peformer
Do they count if we're not including solo acts? I know he was with Wings, but it was still "Paul McCartny and Wings."
I'd toss in James Iha- Smashing Pumpkins and APC. Not the best but he's worth a mention.

Joe Strummer with The Clash and The Pogues. But Shane McGowan will always be THE front man for the Pogues.
I don't give a fig for the simplicity on this side of complexity, but I would die for the simplicity on the other side of complexity.

You’re not wrong. Huge Dio fan.
But for him, Black Sabbath and Heaven and Hell are the same thing.
