If you're going to have Igor and Franco in the same band you have to have an epic synth duel. Preferably with Pierre bashing hell out of his vibraphone at the same time

A German all-star band
Roman Bunka: guitar, oud (the best guitar player no-one ever talks about)
Roland Schaeffer: guitar, saxes, nagaswaram
Chris Karrer: guitar, oud, violin, weird vocals
Christian Burchard: drums, vibraphone, assorted percussion
Barbara Dennerlein: spiced-up Hammond B3 including pedal bass
Mani Neumeier: drums, assorted percussion, kalimba and silly vocals
Inga Rumpf: vocals
They would play jazz-rock with oriental influences due to Burchard, Bunka, Karrer and Schaeffer, who were all members of Embryo (and in the case of Burchard still are), but also blues influences due to Inga Rumpf.

Sure! Edgar Froese (guitar, piano) and Jan Hammer (synths, Fender Rhodes, Hohner Clavinet) would've been something.

Can it get more legendary than this?

I randomly saw Hiromi at a jazz festival in 2005, without knowing anything about her. I guess she was just starting out internationally at that time. When she started to play...my jaw was on the floor, along with everyone else's in the audience. It's probably still the most awe-inspiring display of sheer musical technique I've witnessed. When she stood up at the end I was kind of surprised the piano didn't fall apart. Hell, I was surprised she still had hands

Groovy I think these guys need to record in 5.1 so each guitarist can come out of a different speaker. If you let the gummiberry juice ferment, anything can happen

For a modern supergroup:
Kavus Torabi - guitar
Nels Cline - guitar
Mats Gustafsson - saxes
Alexey Klabukov (Vespero) - synths
Jussi Lehtisalo - bass
Mattias Olsson - drums, drum programming, electronics
Bjork - guest vocals
Should make an interesting journey into avant-krautspace.

I'd buy their records in a heartbeat! Maybe throw in Diamanda Galas on permanent vocals just for the heck of it

Sir Charles generally followed the rules and is thus not strictly prog. Laimbeer, on the other hand, played basketball the same way Emerson stuck knives in his Hammond.
I figure if Trump made a hard move to the lane while Annie sang "Midas Man," Laimbeer would handle the situation decisively. This would be a very progressive show.

Not particularly proggy, but how about some from the group of 27?
- Jim Morrison on vocals.
- Jannis Joplin on vocals.
- Jimmi Hendrix on guitars, and additional vocals.
Now, to round up such a line-up... I guess for keybaord's the Door's same Ray Manzarek would be wonderful. But I wouldn't know which american bass player and drummer would fit nicely here. Or perhaps I could cheat and put in Camel's classic line-up rhythm section?
