I like it a bit of confidence coming through! Anyone else think they could of improved on any of their favourite songs?

[Chris2112]

I'd have love to have played with John McLaughlin and Trilok Gurtu in the McLaughlin trio of the late 1980's.

[Colledge]

i'll add fleetwood mac and the john mayer trio to mine too... although Pino would be a hard act to follow.

Any of those or:

I'm not a hot female and don't like stroppy people otherwise the Pumpkins would've been my first choice.
I'll go for either Sonic Youth, Soundgarden or Kasabian.

There's something about the Faces that always makes me wish I was involved - even on record they just sound like they are really enjoying themselves.

I loved the stone roses..love the bass solo on I am the Rez...

Loved the Seahorses also...there's 1 thing annoying my just now actually.the bass solo at the end of love is the law isn't tabbed anywhere..well I can't find it anyway.,I can't figure out by ear yet so right pissed off....that is unless someone would be kind enough to listen to the long version and tell me the notes or even better tab it..

Very very long shot I know but worth a stab!!
