The only way one could possibly add talent to the 80's KC is to add Emerson on Keys.

I'd like to hear that group jam! Clap

I'm good at bass and I can play a little guitar and keyboards, but nothing more. If only I could play all those instruments well, the music would be seriously good.

If you culd play the instruments well, the music would be good? No sh** Sherlock

Here's a extreme prog band:

Steve DiGiorgio (Death, Control Denied)- bass

Brann Dailor (Mastodon)- drums

Mikael Akerfeldt- (Opeth) vox

Fredrick Thordenal (Meshuggah)- guitars

And maybe Ian McDonald would sit in from time to time.

I don't think that Oldfield would be able to write music in a group setting. After 35+ years, you have to figure there's a REASON he's been alone the whole time.

Ok..I really thought i did this long ago....

Of course mine could easily start looking like a line up of Yes...so I will try not to have more than 2 Yes members in the line-up.....

V/K- Freddie Mercury

G-Trevor Rabin

D-Phil Ehart

B/K/V-Geddy Lee

K-Geoff Downes

These are not nescessarily my favorites at each position, but how cool would that line-up be?

a neato band would be:

Chris Hillman - lead gtr
Gram Parsons - songwriting, vocals
John Fogerty - Vocals, rhythm guitar
James Jamerson - Bass
Frank Sampedro - Rhythm guitar, lead on track 9
Charlie Watts - drums, percussion

A country-rock outfit (similar to Neil Young, late-Byrds, Flying Burrito Bros., etc) with a tight , grooing rhythm section. Non-stop rock action.
