The Who strolled to the plate with a .750 average–only Keith Moon couldn’t sing–and so did Queen. The Beatles, too. (Don’t give me any of that Ringo revisionism.) Either three or four Grateful Deads could carry (mostly) a tune.
Were there any bands where everyone sang well enough to join in on the harmonies? Let’s see (and hear) your answers in the Comment Section.
The Band
Pretty obviously, CSN&Y.

Rockin Chair from the brown one
Nope. Garth didn’t sing.
Dammit. Their average was still pretty damn high.
Robbie’s wasn’t much of a singer. Levon claimed in his book that his mic was turned off for the Last Waltz.
Fleet Foxes when they had Josh TIllman on drums are the champs.
all of the pips could sing, as far as i recall.
the persuasions.
america, which might as well be the same as poco and bread and loggins and messina except
that only one of them sang sister golden hair. but i think all of them sang.
but seriously, the meters.
also the original core four of los lobos. the drummer always changed and it’s not fair to ask the jewish guy who joined later to sing all those spanish lyrics. but david, conrad, louie and cesar all sing. indeed, they all sing lead. and they all sing beautifully, to this day, probably in some club or small
theater tonite in fact.
I was also going to say The Ink Spots but I felt like that was cheating.
Phish
Husker Du
The Wailers
The original four Eagles. Every one of then sang a hit. Felder was a vocal weak link in later line ups, but he at least stepped up.
Beach Boys, post David Marks
KISS (Ace and Peter eras).
