Re: Create your own supergroup...

I'd go with:

Jon Anderson - Vocals (There's no better prog singer)
Steve Hackett - Guitar ('nuff said)
Bill Bruford - Drums (Skinsman supreme and his electronic drum kit could add different textures and colours to the sound)
Tony Levin - Bass and stick (Again a different sound where possible)
Tom Brislin and Guy LeBlanc - Twin Keyboards (Twin keys for an amazing sound)

The band could be called Genecamelyesis for obvious reasons

Re: Create your own supergroup...

Keith - Didn't we do this once before? There should be a thread somewhere not too long ago.

As for me, I never found many supergroups to be more than the sum of their parts. For some reason, there needs to be a more dominant vision and a singularity of purpose. "Platypus" comes to mind - Tabor, Morgenstein, Sherinian, Myung. Most songs are Ty Tabor related, just happens to have great musicians attached.

Transatlantic is not as appealing to me as they should have - I have their CD's and the're excellent. And don't get me started on Asia....

But fire away, I like reading the combinations.....

As I stated in the original post Rick, I didn't know if this had been done before...Sorry if it is a duplicate.
