MEM, hadn't thought of them. Can they all write songs, I mean invidually . very unusual to have 4 who can do that such as with Queen.

OK, without having to look it up, did Nick Mason write songs? And although not the best songs ever written Ringo did write

All four original members of 10CC wrote songs individually and in combination with each other.

I think all members of The Eagles wrote for the band too. (The Eagles of course, not 10CCGrin)

There were only 2 members of 10cc so in fairness they are no really the same thing

without bothering to check, I would think The Eagles might be in with a shout

I would have to check 10cc but in essence I think they were 2 songwriters

The Moody Blues
There main line up was Justin Hayward,John Lodge,Mike Pinder,Ray Thomas and Graeme Edge.
All five wrote some exceptional songs.
All five could sing as well.

not really s group in the classic sense of the rock group, the Beatles set the template for that

Eric Stewart, Graham Gouldman, Kevin Godley and Lol Creme were the original members of 10cc and all wrote songs for the band.

Des pond I am sure that neither ginger baker, Lenny Bruce or Clapton could write songs

Who wrote their songs, then? Confused

Looking through The Eagles back catalogue, their albums include tracks written by Don Henley, Glenn Frey, Bernie Leadon, Don Felder, Randy Meisner, Joe Walsh and Timothy B. Schmidt along with JD Souther and Jackson Browne.

Graham Gouldman's songwriting credits, even away from 10cc, are surprisingly staggering

Bruce, Baker and Clapton are all given song-writing credits on various Cream albums.
By:

When: 24 Nov 16 18:04
Also, this thread should classify songwriting input as opposed to songwriting credit (U2, anyone)

Lots of groups have equal membership credit, even though equal writing was varied.

A lot of reworkings of old blues songs, I guess,like the Stones, but some of it was written by Clapton et al. Unless I'm mistaken.

Jack Bruce was the main song writer for Cream.

Ginger Baker was an out an out passenger.

10cc had some terrible records but they had four members who could write songs.

Just noticed that poet Pete Brown wrote the lyrics for some of their biggest hits. So, I back down, somewhat. Happy

technically all 4 members of Slade wrote their own but Dave Hill's was when they were Ambrose Slade, when they changed to Slade he only did album tracks and B sides.

May as well add Genesis - pretty sure you can add all members (even Hackett) as worthy contributors
