    Default Bands from the 70s

    How many bands from he 70s can you name that still (currently) have all the original members?

    Periods with different members don't matter. They have to have the original members today that they started with.

    Aerosmith?
    I can't say that I've given up on a flanger cause I've never liked the effect either. I also can't say the same about Tremolo. I hate them both equally. - Tone2TheBone 2009

    Cher?

    I will correct myself, based on plastic surgery, that isn't even the original Cher.

    How about Jackson 5 - nope, plastic thing again.

    Any of the solo singer/songwriter guys still being solo and singer/songwriting. Neil and his guitar, harmonica, and piano, Dylan, James Taylor, I would say Cat Stevens, but now the name is Yusaf Islam.

    So far I think the only legitimate ones are ZZ Top, Aerosmith and U2. There's got to be more.

    From Wiki:
    In 1974 Rick Nielsen, Tom Petersson, and Bun E. Carlos replaced Hogan with Robin Zander. The band was renamed, and Cheap Trick was born. In its earliest days Cheap Trick could be seen playing some free admission venues such as Sinnissippi Park in Rockford.

    Well, Neil plays three distinctly different instruments, and often two at the same time. Doesn't that count?
