Is the band the same band with different members? I think that depends on each individual bands situation. AC/DC pulled it off when Bon Scott died and they brought in Brain Johnson. Because it is Angus and Malcolm's band. Back in black cannot be denied as one of the great rock albums ever. A band like KISS upsets me because all the original members just cannot get along so they bring in two other guys and still call themselves KISS. I can't buy that one. To me Lynyrd Skynyrd died with Ronnie VanZant, love their music but its not the same. All of the best original line up bands' music is out there. We've all heard it and its great but i want more. I would like to challenge all these cover/ tribute bands to release new material.
