Over the top? Tell me about it! But just think of how cool and unique their sound would be. Atmospheres and textures not yet reached in Post Rock - far beyond the sun.

I was just thinking about another one, though this one would basically be King Crimson:
- Robert Fripp: Lead Guitars.
- Greg Lake: Lead Vocals, Rhythm Guitars.
- Ian McDonald: Flute, Sax, Mellotron, Backing Vocals.
- Keith Tippet: Piano.
- David Cross: Violin.
- John Wetton: Bass, aditional vocals.
- Bill Bruford: Drums and percussions.
- Jamie Muir: Percussions.

I'm just listening to something from Rick Wakeman's "Songs from Middle Earth" album (which is almost the same album as 7 wonders of the World), and I thought about a nice line-up for some similar music:

This is a pretty cool idea, even if it has been done before.
Vocals: Greg Lake or Jon Anderson
Electric Guitar: Robert Fripp or Frank Zappa
Acoustic Guitar/Vocals/Flute: Ian Anderson (hells yes!)
Bass: Chris Squire (best bassist in rock?)
Keyboards: Keith Emerson or Rick Wakeman... or maybe even David Sinclair of Caravan just because he can jam like crazy
Saxophone: David Jackson of VDGG Drums/Percussion: Carl Palmer or Bill Bruford or Barriemore Barlow or Neil Peart if they want to get a little louder
Lyrics: Ian Anderson, Pete Sinfield, or Peter Hammill
So there it is. No idea what they would call it. And I can see some problems already, mainly the fact that Frank is no longer with us . and I managed to squeeze in all of ELP up there too. Oh well.
P.S. This is officially my first forum post on progarchives! Wow!

That's Glyn Havard. Tough typing on these iPhones.

Robert Fripp (King Crimson, Session Work) - Lead Guitar, Overall Band Leader
Jan Akkerman (Focus, Solo) - Lead Guitar #2
Kerry Minnear (Gentle Giant) - Keyboards, Piano
John Wetton (King Crimson, Asia, Session Work) - Bass, Lead Vocals
Carl Palmer (Emerson, Lake & Palmer, Asia) - Drums, Persussion
This is my line up as of now, but I might think of more later on. I'm trying to think more of what would work in real life, rather than it's quality on "star power", but I think it's fairly effective in both personally.
