Greatest Rock Bands With Real Life Brothers
Posted Tue Jan 27, 2009 4:25pm PST by Robert of the Radish in The Y! Music Playlist Blog
Brothers have a special connection, and when they are raised in a musical family the results can be stunning. While developing skill on an instrument takes years of dedicated solo practice, the ability to produce great band-centered music can only be developed by playing with other human beings.
Siblings have a leg up in this regard, but both brothers and musicians are notorious for fighting, so successful bands that include brothers are not as numerous as one would think. However, for those brothers who have made it in music, the sky's the limit. A smattering of brother-groups have produced numerous timeless classics and this list explores the very best of them.
If you're looking for the Jonas Brothers please check Disney.com -- this list is devoid of manufactured fads.
To make this list each group had to have at least two real life brothers (sorry Doobies), have to be considered rock & roll (sorry Jackson 5), and should have reached the highest levels of respect among rock fans and critics. I have included one track by each group so you can hear the sibling magic for yourself.
