One Band, Two Or More Lead Singers

The new Beatles version of the game Rock Band will feature three microphones, so people can harmonize on the songs. I have enough problems butchering the vocals of a song with one vocalist, so I can imagine how awful it may sound to listen to people harmonize. Then again, I know a lot of people who can now sing better because of that game. (That includes me.)

The only band I can name off the top of my head that uses two singers is Guster, a somewhat indie band. They have one album I really like, and all the rest I don't care for.
Every dead body that is not exterminated becomes one of them. It gets up and kills. The people it kills, get up and kill.

JEFFERSON AIRPLANE had both GRACE SLICK and MARTY BALIN:   
Didn't Jorma sing as well?
Hmmm, I used to know AIRPLANE details better way back when than I do now... I still love them and have several of their albums, but I have to say, don't know, REV.  Maybe he sang for HOT TUNA?   :question:  :drink:

He definitely sang for Hot Tuna... I only have Surrealistic Pillow, and I always assumed it was him on "Coming Back to Me", but it's probably Balin.  I'm less of an expert on them than you. 
I think MARTY BALIN wrote that one..., and assume it's him singing for that reason and it sounds like him, but I often think MARTY and GRACE are interchangeable...   

I think THE TEMPTATIONS not only had many lineup changes, but multiple lead singers over the years, and at times, I think, all together: DAVID RUFFIN, EDDIE KENDRICKS, OTIS WILLIAMS...
