Trivia question: Which 70s/80s band had a different lineup for EACH of their 9 albums?

[hellbound-liberal]

I'll post the answer shortly.

1. Here's a hint: at least two of the members went on to play with Black Sabbath

[flvegan]

2. I'd say Dio, but they weren't a 70s band

I know that folks left and went on to Sabbath, and there seemed to be a new lineup every week.

11. Dio was pretty close since he and Blackmore founded Rainbow.

My favorite incarnation was the 2nd one with Cozy Powell on drums. Damn he was good! R.I.P Cozy!
