While playing with Faces (including bandmate Ronnie Wood) back in the 70's, crooner Rod Stewart pursued his solo career and quickly became one of the best-selling music artists of all time with six consecutive number one albums in the UK.
Annie Lennox embarked on her solo career after her time as part of new wave band The Tourists and then Eurythmics. In 1992 she released her debut album Diva, that went on to sell over 1.2 million copies in the UK alone.
