Help with a quiz question...

...on Radio 1 this morning.

I heard the question but missed the answer as I had arrived at work.

The question was, who has had a uk number one single as a solo artist, a duo, a trio and as a group of 4 or more.

First thing that popped to mind was Robbie but can't think of when he has had a trio.

Can anyone who heard the answer or who knows the answer please tell me.

I've tried to google it but to no avail!

 

[The Large One]

Paul McCartney.

Solo - Pipes of Peace
Duo - Ebony & Ivory (with Stevie Wonder)
Trio - Mull of Kintyre (with Wings)
Quartet - Loads with The Beatles
Quintet - Get Back (with The Beatles & Billy Preston)
Ensemble - Do They Know It's Christmas Time? (Band Aid)

 

[pishhead]

George Michael?

 

[Wilko]

The answer was Paul McCartney. There was a bit of dispute about the trio part. Apparantly when with Wings he performed as a trio.

 

[Biscuit]

Paul McCartney.

Sir Paul McCartney.

Legend.

Ah ok, Phil Collins was the next person who I was thinking of as when Gabrielle left Genesis i thought there was only 3 in the band but when I googles them they never had s uk number 1.

 

[Hiney]

Gabrielle left Genesis.

She was never in Genesis
