Aynsley Dunbar played drums for Journey, Starship and Whitesnake. Neal Schon and Jonathan Cain found success in both Journey and (briefly) Bad English. Prior to Journey, Jonathan Cain and John Waite (also of Bad English) were in The Babys.

^ I think the only longterm Whitesnake member is David Coverdale! From the impression I have of him, he seems to think he IS Whitesnake. :rolleyes:

I don't think so since USA for Africa was really a one-off thing.

The name Ron Dante may not be a household name but, he's probably made more hit records ( usually one-hit wonders ) under different names, than probably any other singer-musician-songwriter
He began his career with the mostly forgotten parody of "Leader of the Pack" called Leader of the laundrymat ( under the name, the Detergents )
in later years he followed that up with a string of hits under his own name and mostly the names of others. Among his records, the best-known ones are probably Tracy ( never let go ) by the Cufflinks & Chirpy Chirpy Cheep Cheep ( AKA Where's your momma gone? )by The California Gold Rush
He also worked as a producer for Barry Manillow , it was however as a comic book character that Ron made his biggest splash as the lead singer on such mega-hit bubblegum records as Sugar Sugar & Jingle Jangle as lead singer for the ARCHIES ( The fictional rock band created for the 1960s Archie TV cartoons )!

^ I think the only longterm Whitesnake member is David Coverdale! From the impression I have of him, he seems to think he IS Whitesnake. :rolleyes:I think that's true, he is pretty much Whitesnake, it was his band he formed in 1978, and had a revolving door lineup of musicians who only lasted as long as he felt he needed them. People
seem to think he just "sprang out" on the scene in 1987 with "Still Of the Night" or at least in 1984 with the song "Slow An' Easy", but he/they had a number of albums before then.
Megadeth is another band with a revolving door lineup, all centered around Dave Mustaine, with some lineups lasting longer than others, depending on how well certain members work out (or who can tolerate Dave over a certain period of time!! :lol: ;) ). His current lineup with Glen and Shaun Drover and James Lomenzo (formerly of White Lion and Black Label Society) is one of his best. Glen Drover is an amazing guitarist.

How about George Harrison? (Yes, THAT George Harrison!) Besides the Beatles, he was with the Traveling Wilburys in the late 1980s and early 1990s.
