BigRedX Posted May 5, 2019 Share Posted May 5, 2019 Supergroups will only be any good if they include at least one excellent songwriter. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
oldslapper Posted May 5, 2019 Share Posted May 5, 2019 I tried, but kept changing my mind so gave up. Probably overanalysing. But did make me think, all my favourite musicians aren’t renowned for being virtuosos. So it wouldn’t be much of a supergroup. 😂 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

BassTractor Posted May 6, 2019 Share Posted May 6, 2019 (edited) Reminds me of the yearly polls held in Holland when I was even younger. One year, the supergroup consisting of the "best" ones for each position was: Best singer: Jon Anderson Best guitar player: Steve Howe Best keyboard player: Rick Wakeman Best drummer: Bill Bruford I just wish I could remember who the best bass player was that year! 😂 Edited May 6, 2019 by BassTractor 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
stewblack Posted May 6, 2019 Share Posted May 6, 2019 Elvis Costello would write the songs, Stewart Copeland on drums, Norman Watt-Roy on bass, Jules Holland piano, Smokey Robinson and Carla Thomas on vocals, Tommy Tedesco on guitar.

stewblack Posted May 6, 2019 Share Posted May 6, 2019 My rock band would be anchored by Brian Downey and John Entwistle, Malcolm Young and Rick Parffit chugging away on the six strings with Brian May taking care of solos George Michael singing.
