Another "supergroup" debuted this month on a stage near Lollapalooza -- Them Crooked Vultures features members of Foo Fighters, Queens of the Stone Age, and Led Zeppelin (!).Unfortunately, these all-star gatherings usually end up as less than the sum of their parts.
Take Damn Yankees -- please. Tommy Shaw of Styx, Jack Blades of Night Ranger, and -- why the hell not -- Ted Nugent, teamed up to create some ear-splintering power ballads.
Power Station combined a little Duran Duran, a little Chic, and some Robert Palmer to snore up an uninspired remake of "Bang a Gong."
It almost makes one wistful for the obligatory lead-singer solo album.
