Case started with the New Pornographers.


Nothing any of The Beatles did solo was equal to their work as a band. They made several of the best albums ever. John came the closest with his first effort, Platic Ono Band.

Ringo's solo work? Geesh. His disco album?

Case started solo... the NP are a side act...


well, unless you want to count Neko Case & Her Boyfriends as a band... I wouldnt in the context of this question.

Every Beatle has a solo song better than any single Beatles song except John. That guy just had no idea how to craft. Ringo? It don't come easy. Boom.

No. TNP are a side project. A Canadian "supergroup" if you will. Dan Bejar's Destroyer also predates TNP. And AC Newman is a songwriting genius. I love Neko, but I wish she'd let Newman write for her more. He's better at it.

Neil Young is my answer. All of his bands are inferior to his solo work.
