If you could make a band...

[HG1180]

Say you’re a band manager with an unlimited source of money and resources, and are tasked with putting together a supergroup, of any genre and of your favorite Guitarists, Bassists, Keyboardists, Horn Players, Etc... Who would you choose?
(Living or Deceased!)

For me I would have to go with this for a classic rock/blues/psychedelic rock band

Guitar 1-Alan “Blind Owl” Wilson (Canned Heat)
Guitar 2-Duane Allman (The Allman Brothers Band)
Bass-Stu Cook (CCR)
Drums-Bill Ward (Black Sabbath)
Keys-Ray Manzarek (The Doors)

 

[JRA]

i would make prince and stevie work with larry and clyde* and tell them all: "come up with a 90-minute show for your frontman, james." i would tell them that "we're all going to get rich(er)!" i would have all the checks made to JRA to ensure that there would no squabbling.

* lots of drummer choices!

 

[oldrocker]

Bass - Jack Bruce
Drums - Ginger Baker
Guitar - Eric Clapton

I may have missed the point of the thread

 

[two fingers]

Tower of Power horns
Bobby Vega - Bass
Dennis Chambers - Drums
Reese Waynans - keys/organ
John Legend and Joss Stone - co lead vocals
Steve Cropper and Curtis Mayfield - guitar

Holy crap what a funky soul band that would be!!!!
