Sorry not Queen not Zeppelin----but Zeppelin has been noted to have sold over 250 million records this band has been estimated at 370 million records and growing-----good guess-------queen also has been estimated over 250 million but they recorded up to they early 90's before Freddie past away----the band I am looking 4 stopped in 1982--amother good guess.

Pink Floyd? ( thinking "the Wall" and DSOTM here!)
Life should NOT be a journey to the grave with the intention of arriving safely in an attractive well preserved body,but rather to skid in sideways,wine and chocolate in hand, body thoroughly used up, totally worn out and screaming "what a ride!"

Pretty amazing that a band who hasnt played together in almost as many years as Journey has been together as a whole ,are still bringing 3 million sales a year, maybe Journey should find out who there management team was--just amazing---for a disco/pop band in the seventies no less.

Unfortunately,Abba's manager died in 1996 or something like that.

Funny I remembered...One of Abba's albums is named "Arrival". :)

Good one Yulog,,,,

Lets keep this thread alive though...

Here's one that's easier ,,,
This band had a major hit in 86 and toured with Def Leppard in 88 and split up 1990 just to reunite in 2004 with a new CD/DVD and world tour.

Wouldn't know it if I've ever heard a single note recorded by abba.
"I love almost everybody."---Rocky Balboa 1990
"Let's reform this thing.Let's go out and get some guys who want to work and go do it"--Neal Schon February, 2001
"I looked at Neal, and I just saw a guy who really wants his band back"-JCain 2/01

I told you it was EASY :) Europe is correct! Good Job !!!
Did you guys know that Marcel Jacob who has played with Jeff in bands like Talisman, Human Clay, Humanimal and Rising Force, played with Europe for a while and wrote a song called "Scream Of Anger" which Jeff sings on the Talisman DVD ?:)
