It'd be darn near impossible to cover either Mahavishnu or Giant
 
...but my vote goes to Milli VanilliClown, very innovative in the genre of imaginary music; miles ahead of Jessica SimpsonDead

GG. Noone else could do it. They are all superb musicians and they are SO versatile.

Mahavishnu Orchestra also come close, but the multipart harmonies on GG's album sre the decisive factor.
A TVR is not a car. It's a way of life.

Mahavishnu Orchestra ... everyone's got to be a virtuoso and be totally fractious with each other.
What?

Imagine you play an instrument and you have your little band. Imagine that you want to play a tribute show to any of these bands, playing very  faithful to how the original bands would sound when playing live and with the same level of speed and improvisation quality.

For which band would you and the band expect to have the hardest time, assuming you have the same number of band members as that band and the group can cover all the instruments used.
