All bands are just either the singer/guitarist/lyricist/composer/producer/cute one and a bunch of other guys... no matter how 'loved' their work is
Joe Strummer gets all of the attention, so Joe Strummer basically IS The Clash. All of the other members could be replaced, and a majority of the listeners would not care.
Every bandmate in any band has a vital role, however, only the frontman gets all of the credit. It's not fair, but who really cares? It should be about the music.
