solo album
In popular music, a solo album is an album made by a current or former member of a band. A solo album may feature simply one person performing all instruments, but may also feature the work of other collaborators; rather, it may be made with different collaborators than the artist is usually associated, though just how different that group is varies widely.
An example is rock musician Sting (musician), who came to prominence as a member of The Police. For his first solo album, 1985's Dream of the Blue Turtles, Sting recruited an entirely different backing group with which to perform. However, it is common for musicians to recruit some of their "regular" bandmates for the recording of a solo album.
Another example is the musician Peter Gabriel. Gabriel departed from the UK band Genesis with the birth of his first daughter, and wrote an emotional song: Solsbury Hill (song) to commemorate the event.
A solo performer working with other members will typically have full creative control of the band, be able to hire and fire accompanyists, and get the majority of the proceeds.
