Inspired by the discussion of Paul Young over on the Least Collectable Albums thread...
Who are rock's Robbie Fowlers? Which rock stars, after a fairly brief but lucrative moment in the sun, invested their money in something completely unconnected to music and are doing quite nicely out of it?
I interviewed Greg Dulli out of The Afghan Whigs the other day. You wouldn't think being Greg Dulli out of The Afghan Whigs - extremely critically acclaimed, but never more than moderately popular with the great unwashed - would be amazingly financially rewarding, but he's clearly used his money wisely. He now owns something like three bars and hotels, and has homes in three different cities (Cincinatti, New Orleans and Los Angeles, I think). Smart guy.
