Ginger Baker's Air Force

[bassist15]

I was wondering if anyone liked this group? I dont know why they failed so misserably on their albums. I watched a video of them on youtube doing Sunshine of Your Love and it was great. Graham Bond did a great Eastern sounding solo on alto sax. The only thing that sucked ont he videos was that they had two girl singers and they were terrible. they shouldve had Stevie Winwood doing the vocals. It seemed towards the end of the 60's and begging of the 70's that there were alot of "supergroups" that seemed good on paper but jsut didnt gell. I know someone on a different site metioned a few "supergroups" that Mike bloomfield was in that failed misserably. Anyone wanna talk abotu their favorite failed supergroups or if there is someone who acualyl likes some of these groups talk it up.

Cream was an early 'super' group...
It seemed like Ric Gretch was the bassist of choice for a few 'super' groups (Blind Faith, Traffic, Eric Clapton's Rainbow Concert band, etc).

How 'bout '80's 'super' group Asia?
They hadda be the biggest disappointment, huh?
