Man, I can't believe no one has mentioned Weezer so far.

They went from unbelieve rock band with the Blue Album and Pinkerton (one of the best albums of the 90s) to bad pop music with Green Album, Maladroit, and Make Believe.

I'll grant you that the last 3 albums weren't as good as the first two, but saying they "drastically changed musical styles" is kinda silly.

Sayin that the last three albums weren't as good as the first two is a pretty big understatement. And I would agee that they didn't go through a drastic change.

Pearl Jam anyone

OUTKAST.

Agree with the Dylan electric- this set was released on CD several years ago and is great listening.

And I think that the Beatles drastically but gradually changed. I don't know the album that immediately preceeded Rubber Soul, but I can guess it was the same pop stuff they were playing in the early years. After that, the transition to Revolver and Sgt. Pepper completed the drastic change. If you compare "Meet the Beatles" to "Abbey Road", its pretty drastic. thank goodness.
