Boston's first three albums were good. The 4th one (without Brad Delp) was awful, and the 5th one (with several singers) was spotty. Guess which songs were the best? The ones with Brad Delp on them. Anything they have attempted since his relocation to Hell has been complete dragonshit.
Same with Chicago.... brilliant band in their original configuration. There was a power trio in there every bit as good as Cream or the Jimi Hendrix Experience, they just happened to have a horn section too. Then Terry Kath died and everything worthwhile about the band died with him. And by now, I think the horn players are the only original members left. The horns on my head make better music than anything they did after 1978.
The New York Dolls were sort of named after a city.... and again... great original lineup. Fell apart when people started dying. Of course, in the case of Johnny Thunders he started dying early.... it just took him years to finish it.

Seriously though Pantera was originally Pantego, named after Pantego, Texas.
Odd that Pennsylvania would have both a Bethlehem and a Nazareth. Guess if I ever ran for President of the United States, I could put either one on My birth certificate?

I hear you, but to me it's the singer who's been overrated and overplayed. An overprick...
I hear ya. One minute, the guy is wearing bicycle shorts (Yeah, THAT is a good look ) and a Charlie Manson shirt, then suddenly he's Sir Elton. Then he appropriates the band's name and sits on it for a decade or so to ultimately release an album you could find in the "1.99-5.99" bin a week later upon it's release.
At least bassist Tommy Stinson had endured enough by now and, with a rare display of common sense, hooked up with Paul Westerberg to form a Replacements reunion. For which should all be eternally grateful.

I'll tell you two bands who are fuckin' overplayed and overrated. Boston & Foreigner! Mainly because the local rock station plays them on a constant fucking basis. Now you know why I have SiriusXM, along with being able to avoid Nickelback.

Boston & Foreigner were both good for their first three albums. And they both should have pulled the plug after that.
The bands using those names today are both complete frauds.
