Whitesnake

Whitesnake is an English band founded by Ex-Deep Purple vocalist David Coverdale in 1978. The second of the Deep Purple offshoots, Whitesnake emerged long after Deep Purple had already disbanded. The band started as David Coverdale's backing band entitled The White Snake Band before they were officially known as Whitesnake.
Like how Rainbow included Roger Glover on bass once, Whitesnake included Jon Lord and Ian Paice at one point. In the 80s, they got super fucking heavy and basically became a Hair Metal band, which makes most people mistake them for one. David Coverdale was also married to Tawny Kitaen, the other Hottest Girl of all time, between 1989 and 1991, whom had appeared in several of the band's music videos. They realized Hair Metal was losing it's coolness factor and called it quits in 1990. They came back several times after that but came back for good in 2002. In 2015, they released an album of all Deep Purple covers, consisting of songs from when David Coverdale was in the band.
They are another band who never had a consistent lineup, so they changed members quite often.
