Your Fantasy Band

If you could have any musicians to choose from to create your own fantasy band who would you choose? assuming that you are the bass player. You can have any and as many musicians as you want.

Stevie Ray Vaughan on guitar
Jason Bonham on drums
Ray Charles on keys
Eric Clapton on guitar and vox, singing like he did back on 'From the Cradle'
B.B. King on guitar too

We'd have ourselves a good old fashioned blues band, with a little tinge of rock (Bonham)

My dream band is seeing Prince play everything at the same time with Larry Graham or Jamerson on the bass. I'll just listen and learn.

I would just be happy if Sunny Day Real Estate got back together and wrote new material.

It wouldn't be a wank fest, just good wholesome rock.
