Addictedtoclassic Posted November 5, 2004 Report Share Posted November 5, 2004 The "Separated at birth" thread got me thinking. What musicians (dead or alive) are related? Here's what I can think of off the top of my head: Ronnie VanZant: Lynyrd Skynyrd Johnny VanZant: Lynyrd Skynyrd Donnie VanZant: .38 Special Bob Dylan Jacob Dylan: The Wallflowers John Lennon Julian Lennon Duane Allman: Allman Brothers Gregg Allman: Allman Brothers Do you know anyone else?

EdL Posted November 7, 2004 Report Share Posted November 7, 2004 Sorry if I seem to be hogging this one but if you want musical families you really can't get better than the Bach family. Johann Sebastian Bach is the famous one we all know and love but the Bach family produced dozens of musicians between the 16th and 18th centuries who were all equally famous in their day. Carl Philip Emmanuel Bach and Johann Christian Bach are just two that spring to mind. OK, OK, I know it's not pop music but those guys provided the foundation for what music is today.
