I'm sure there has been discussion's about the best rock band. But what about a fantasy rock band?(Mixing and matching members of different bands) Tell me who you think the best people are/were and why you think they are/were the best. I'll start: Vocalist: David Draiman.(Disturbed)He has unique vocals that sound amazing. Guitarist: Jimmi Hendrix.(The Hendrix Experience)He's THE best guitarist. Bassist: Cliff Burton.(Metallica)He can do things with his bass that not very many others can. For proof listen to the song Anestesia(Pulling Teeth), the solo is 3-4 minutes long and is all him. Drummer: Lars Ulrich.(Metallica)He can play fast and uses double bass pedals beautifully.
Vocalist:Shirley Manson (Garbage) Guitarist:Carlos Santana Bassist:Flea (Red Hot Chili Peppers) I just love him. Drummer: Neil Peart (Rush) the best now forever and always
No fantasy I could dream up would be as wonderful as my favorite bands from the 1970s. The original lineup of: Black Sabbath Fairport Convention Genesis Led Zeppelin Pink Floyd Renaissance Roxy Music Tangerine Dream UK Yes Not to mention many other bands who were able to produce one or two stunning prog-rock albums before descending into pop ditties: Blue Oyster Cult Camel Gentle Giant Jefferson Starship Heart Kansas Jethro Tull Nektar Pretty Things Shadowfax Supertramp Fortunately a few bands are still out there proving that this kind of music can still be made, such as King Crimson, Jean-Luc Ponty, Rush and Zappa's son Dweezil. Bless their rockin' and rollin' hearts.
Janis Joplin ....lead vocal Hendrix...lead guitar Santana ....rhythm guitar John Bonham....drums John Paul Jones...bass Rick Wakman....keyboards
I've heard of Janis Joplin but I can't remember. Hendrix is the best so that's a no-brainer for lead. Santana is great as well. I haven't heard of Bonham. John Paul Jones is good. And I don't know Wakman. Jim Morisson was a gifted guy. Why is it talented musicians die young? Here's a list to show some of the unfortunate few. Jimmi Hendrix Jim Morrison I can't remember his name, but the original vocalist from AC/DC Bob Marley Cliff Burton Elvis Presley And Kurt Cobain(although he killed himself it's still a death).
