You picked a couple of the ones I would of posted, Craig. You could add the Yardbirds and the Faces in here, too but it's backwards. The bands they were in were before they went and made it big in other bands or solo. The Jeff Beck Group is another one.
Favorite Supergroup Album?

The Faces were a supergroup of sorts though. Two guys from the Jeff Beck Group, and three guys from the original Small Faces.
Rod and Woody were each in other bands before the Jeff Beck Group, for that matter, though they weren't exactly household names. Rod was an early member of two bands you may have heard of, but before they hit the big time. He was the original lead singer for "The Ray Davies Quartet" which became The Kinks after Rod left. Later he was in a band called "Shotgun Express" which evolved into the original Fleetwood Mac.
And Woody's main claim to fame before the Jeff Beck Group was a band called "The Birds" (not to be confused with "The Byrds"). The band actually appeared in a horrible movie called "The Deadly Bees"

If former members of a single group or artist's band counts then Missing Persons would be my fave.

I would say Whitesnake was a supergroup for a very short period when the band, or at least the recording band was Coverdale, Steve Vai, Rudy Sarzo, Tommy Aldridge and Don Airey...and maybe Adrian Vandenberg on Slip Of The Tongue...
I saw that tour and they really performed as one would expect a "supergroup" to do...

Thanks FORD for the Steve Jones stuff, huge fan...
This one's from left field, but I always thought
Fleetwood Mac were a supergroup....
Lindsay Buckingham does some amazing stuff
without a pick !
Coupled with the two chicks and killer hooks,
they were pretty cool for a non metal band..BABY PANA 2 IS Coming !! All across the land, let the love and beer flow !
