Technically they were Rainbow before they were Ritchie Blackmore's Rainbow.  We could add 50 bands that fall under this category where a member of the band formed or toured as the primary band under their name.  

Also, technically, Candace Night is the singer of Blackmore's Night.  LOL

Yngwie J. Malmsteen's Rising Force

Cosmo's Factory.  Creedence Clearwater Revisited's name at one point when court injunction did not allow them to use CCRevisited.  Technically, named after CCR album Cosmo's Factory, Cosmo is drummer Doug Clifford's nickname.

Manfred Mann's Earth Band is the most obvious one for me. Also Hattler (Kraan bassist Hattler's band).

Robin Trower comes to mind first 
let's just stay above the moral melee
prefer the sink to the gutter
keep our sand-castle virtues
content to be a doer
as well as a thinker,
prefer lifting our pen
rather than un-sheath our sword

Also, Mick Fleetwood's Zoo. If this was a poll, then Fleetwood Mac would win by a Landslide, as they've been mentioned three times now. Smile

Santana
The Dave Clark Five
Paul Revere and the Raiders
Mike + The Mechanics
The Spencer Davis Group

Alan Parsons never performed lead vocal duties on any of the Project's studio albums, but he is doing lead vocals during some of their recent tours, notably on Eye in the Sky. Lead vocals are still shared among multiple vocalists when they perform, for obvious reasons.

I tried very hard to be succotash, but I'm made out of ducks and dish drying racks.

  Lady Luck blessed Fleetwood Mac's rhythm section with a parade of composers/singers/ and unique musicians.  You could argue that Mick and John were the least talented members of Fleetwood Mac. Wink
