A clue is that I find this fact more interesting that it has never happened before or since when you think of Osmonds, Jackson’s, Gibbs, Gallaghers etc than who the actual artists are.

Problem with clues is which bit is the relevant bit and which is just smoke and mirrors.

Re: Trivia Question
So a band with two or more brothers or sisters knocked a band off the top spot who had another of their brothers or sisters in it? I just wanna get that straight.
