well, I would have Geddy Lee as singer, and Bass and Keyboards. Lifeson on guitars and background keyboards and background vocals, Peart on Drums/percussion

I did (out of this group):

  • Phil Collins: Vocals
  • Tony Banks: Keyboards
  • Chris Squire: Bass
  • Carl Palmer: Drums

I think that'd be classy

My Dream Group is this:

  • Ian Anderson: Vocals/Flute (Jethro Tull)
  • Ray Shulman: Bass Guitar/Violin (Gentle Giant)
  • Carl Palmer: Drums
  • Tony Banks: Keyboards
  • Ian McDonald: Flute/Saxophone/Etc. (King Crimson)
  • Steve Hackett: Guitar

Only Yes/Genesis/ELP/King Crimson/UK men to choose from. Yawn. Let people make their own free choices. Here's mine which I thought up some weeks ago:

British art rock band formed in 1972, called Daylight:

Dusty Springfield - voc (fantastic emotional singer)

Justin Hayward - g, voc (after Moody Blues' breakup)

Ian McDonald - kb, sax, fl (what was he doing at that time, anyway?)

Graham Smith - violin (played later for P. Hammill/VDGG)

Eberhard Weber - bass (brings the jazz influence)

Stephen Lipson - dr, perc (retired from music after Gracious' breakup)

Daylight made art rock that has elements from entertainment vocal music, jazz and classical music. Its biggest fault is that it never existed - but it COULD have, right?

What's the point of mixing different ingredients of beer, wisky, vodka, coca-cola and so on, guys?

Everyone played in the group he was destined to. I'm not sure that if some "monsters of prog" had played together anything could be better than it was.

Lake, Howe, Emerson, Squire, Collins.

But maybe it would be a horrible band  .

I agree, the list to choose from should be more varied. My personal dream team is this, although the styles would probably not blend, but they are my favorite musicans in the listed categories:

vocals - Peter Hammill
guitar - Roman Bunka
keyboards - Dave Stewart
bass - Helmut Hattler
flute and saxes - Didier Malherbe
violin - Didier Lockwood
drums - Pierre Moerlen

Somehow this is more or less a fusion combo, with an odd Peter Hammill thrown in for good measure, although the musicians worked in other contexts too.

Well, it looks like the poll indicates Yes (Anderson-Howe-Squire) with Carl Palmer on drums and a guest keyboardist!

OK THIS ONE IS MADE UP:

BAND: "Evaporated Moon"

GENRE: pre Progressive Art - Rock / Psychedelic.

MEMBERS:   Toni Iommi (Guitars), David Byron (Vocals), Rick Wakeman (Mellotron, Organ & Keyboards), Ginger Baker (Drums), Greg Lake (Bass Guitar).

BIOGRAPHY: Formed in 1967 by the above members who wanted to do something different with 4 spectacular albums they didn't quite make it but remain the best underated prog rock group of the 60s/70s. Sadly the group split in early 1971.

Vocals/guitar: David Gilmour
Bass: Geddy Lee or Ray Shulman
Drums: Neil Peart or Bill Bruford
Keys: Tony Banks

Yes, I'm aware that Gilmour wouldn't really mesh very well with this rhythm section, but ah well...
