Are we mixing jazz and rock (Mingus reference)? I'll play and I will stick to rock:
Guitar: Jimi Hendrix Guitar: Eric Clapton Bass: John Entwistle Drums: Charlie Watts Vocals: Grace Slick There are so many others in every category but I'll keep it simple. |

I suppose you would prefer Barry Manilow.

No, but I could probably name 100.
Perhaps it's just the Doors in general I can't stand.

Most horrible lyricist ever?
Speaking of, I guess I might add Bernie Taupin to my band, just for fun, and Cynthia Plastercaster, for even more fun.

I know David, it's truly shocking. I believe she is 74.

Well, I'm gonna go a different route. One that I always take with my fantasy baseball teams too. I love the multi-positional guys, so I'm gonna go with a bunch of multi-instrumentalists here, who all happen to be incredible songwriters and vocalists from different eras and/or genres, to allow the band to touch on nearly all styles of music.. While limiting their labeling to "main instruments", Piano and other assorted instruments will also be available to my "fantasy band". The fact that most members play all instruments, will also allow them to fill in any gaps and make up for any stylistic shortcomings of the others in the songwriting process. There will also be a lot of "natural variation" in vocal styles and tones, to create nearly unheard of harmonies..
Guitar 1: Prince(great guitar player, vocalist, songwriter, played all instruments on first 5 albums, reportedly plays 27 instruments). Guitar 2: John Mayer(I'm not even a fan, but he is a pretty good songwriter, solid vocalist, and one hell of a guitar player) Bass:Paul McCatney(jack of all trades, great vocalist and songwriter) Drumsave Grohl(jack of all trades, great vocalist and songwriter) Vocals:Mike Patton(possibly the most diverse vocalist ever, can sing multiple languages and styles. Probably one of the best at using vocals as an instrument, also great with electronic programming) Alternate guitar player:Phil Keaggy Last edited by novakjr; 02-11-2014 at 07:07 AM. |

Neat topic!
Fantasy:
So many combinations that would be amazing! Guitar- Peter Frampton! Guitar- Gary Richrath (REO Speedwagon) Bass - Geddy Lee (Rush) Keyboards- Richard Wright (Pink Floyd) Drums - Neil Peart (Rush), Drums -Keith Moon (The Who) Vocals- Ronnie James Dio for the harder stuff, James Taylor for softer singing. Utility/1-man band- Steve Winwood! Tough to leave off so many talented guys! Honorable mentions in no particular order= Ian Anderson, Jeff Lynne, Phil Collins, John Mayer, Dickie Betts, Keith Emerson, Geezer Butler, Tom Scholl? (Boston), David Clayton Thomas, Jim Croce, David Gilmour.

This is precisely why I rarely walk in front of a mirror anymore.
I think that is her curse for being a part of Jefferson Starship.

Kinda surprised that I haven't seen Stevie Ray Vaughn mentioned.
Or Buddy Miles although I'm kinda partial to a very underrated, finesse (sic) drummer in Carl Palmer. |
