and their big single 
when the band broke up it was tough for everyone
han took it especially tough
it was a real opportunity for lando, though
no one bought their ill-advised reunion, which was repackaged as "rebels" due to a legal dispute with the original drummer
speaking of the drummer, he was just fine, doing his own thing
han went back to his roots again
and leia made it absolutely clear that it wasn't happening again
lando's kept pumping out the hits--everyone wanted to work with him
and luke, still doing his thing
the label forced three of the original members back into yet another poorly received rebranded reunion; only lando was savvy enough to negotiate his way out of that contract.
you could tell none of them wanted to be there.
you could tell none of them wanted to be there.
and the whole time, they're getting outsold by EDM

seriously, these guys were like machines
did threepio release a solo album? you bet he did.
artoo's solo release had to be censored in order to get on the shelves at retailers like walmart. still, it was considered scandalous in its day.
"old ben" revolutionized folk music and brought it into the mainstream. you wouldn't think he'd be connected to the other artists in this thread, but he enjoyed such a resurgence that...
...an unlikely collaboration was formed, with artoo laying down beats under kenobi's deathstick-raspy croon.
eventually, leia really locked down the adult contemporary charts.
threepio kept getting edgier and edgier in his music and image
knowing what had happened with artoo's censored release, threepio declared he didn't need walmart or any other retailed who wouldn't stock his must suggestive cover
threepio even got leia to collaborate on a single
when artoo&threepio finally called it quits, war broke out between humans and droids in eight systems over the album cover, which was later revealed to be a joke. the droid duo issued an apology for the confusion.
of course these major artists weren't the only musical stars in the galaxy.
there was something for everyone.
mon mothma wanted to make sure the sacrifices that brought light to the galaxy would never be forgotten.
while some just wanted to see the galaxy burn.
the title was ironic, as this was luke's most experimental outing yet, after his near-fatal womp rat bullseyeing accident.
you might not expect chewbacca, the original drummer for the rebel alliance, to be so successful with upbeat bubblegum pop, but are you going to argue with him about it?
probably leia's most personal release, artoo took the cover art as a personal insult upon its release, but it was just a misunderstanding on the part of the fiery droid.
meanwhile, luke was releasing some challenging music that achieved much critical acclaim but further alienated the fans from his old rebel alliance days.
by the time artoo learned that leia wasn't attacking him, he had already written, recorded, released and promoted a diss track.
he never apologized.
he never apologized.
tatooine continued to prove a fertile ground for singer-songwriters--if they could get off world.
a huge budget was thrown at this complete flop of an album, opening the label up to bankruptcy and hostile takeover.
considered one of the great live albums of all time, "from the carkoon pit" was recorded after a marathon series of studio sessions that luke hosted with musicians old and new. the three weeks of writing and bickering culminated in the legendary skiff-top performance.
luke is widely known to have been heavily dependent upon spice during this period, but no one can deny that his "thin white count" character made for innovative music.
the raw emotionality of this album proved that for malakili, the answer to "am i my rancor's keeper?" was a resounding "yes."
the tonnika sisters used their musical career as a cover for their true calling as con artists
wuher's "unapologetic" anti-droid stance never failed to find an audience among the human population, who sang along with it unabashedly at nearly every podracing event in the less enlightened corners of the planet.
maz kanata was unable to release her albums under her own name due to a preexisting band calling themselves "maz," so she simply added an extra syllable for the takodana versions.
the tusken raiders used their music to get an inspiring message of revolution and liberation out to the other peoples of tatooine.
salacious crumb broke new ground as the first kowakian monkey-lizard to hit platinum with the album critics jokingly referred to as his self-titled release
