Ohh, controversial, do love person pitch but.

I like Person Pitch also but think Animal Collective edge it for me.

I'd say Phil Lynott's solo stuff was as good as Think Lizzy's, neither better or worse.

No, he did record a solo song (Grey Lady of the Sea) that was featured on a documentary about his sailing capers, that was only ever released in Japan:

Not exactly Rio, is it?

John Taylor had a solo single (on the 9 1/2 Weeks soundtrack) and Andy Taylor had a solo album (dreadful).

The Arcadia album (Simon le Bon, Nick Rhodes and Roger Taylor) is great. Completely OTT and pretentious, but fabulous.

There is a little compartment in my brain forever labelled "Duran Duran trivia".

I have one of those!

I've never been able to enjoy Lou Reed's solo stuff compared to his work with VU. Ditto Steve Malkmus after Pavement.

Has anyone said Sting or Lionel Richie?

Todd Rundgren

Flavor of love > Nation of millions

 

[bogmanfan]

Aimee Mann > Til Tuesday
MF Doom > KMD
Also think Paul Westerberg's solo stuff is dangerously close to surpassing the Replacement's output.
