    Relayer: nah man i don't blame you for anything, he's the man alright!
    you're probably already onto this but; If you like Bowie in a more anounimous Lead singer mode, you'de have to check out Tin Machine (I) (i love that album so much!
    This is David, sick of his superstar status, so he formed a band like G&R / Pixies.
    Amazing band, amazing guitar licks, and ofcourse fanastic lyrics, dealling with inner city racism & coruption and such. Very Raw!

    Well ofcourse, Cream & Zep were already Supergroups, a little leftovers from the Yardbirds. Imagine, Led Zep was actually gonna be Keith Moon and John Entwhistle for a while!

    Peace to you all

    Cool! :) It was a hard decision for me, because I had to choose between Don Cherry, David Bowie, and Peter Gabriel. OH and Jon Anderson ;)

    Well, kind of hard to make a serious supergroup because the members must be willing of course and they need to make chemistry with eachother. Nevertheless I'd like this:

    Vocals: Ronnie J. Dio
    Guitar: Richie Blackmore
    Bass: Geezer Butler
    Drums: well, Bill Ward would be fine.
    Keyboard: Tony Carey

    Maybe it does looks lame because the members all come from only two different bands, but this sounds like a supergroup to me!

    Lou Reed on vocals,
    The heroin on everything else.

    Maybe Brian Eno and Bowie somewhere in there too.

    I don't see how Dio on vocals makes a band too much Tenacious D, but I'm not a fan of the D anyway. Didn't liked that song Dio at all, very pretentious and not humorous (if it even was supposed to be that).

    rick wakeman; keyboards
    klaus shultze; keyboards and percussion
    erby mann; flute
    marry youngblood; flute
    brian eno; diggerie doo
    the monkey c crew; gamalon
    i forget his name; sakahachi
    i have no name for him/her; base claranet
    someone celtic; clearsah
    someone else celtic; illan pipes
    sigh zenthner, slide trombone
    maybe mikael graham on electric base
    chick chorria, hammond b3
    someone on french horn.
    ian anderson; flute
    probably no vocal lead, and you'll notice, no saxiphones, lead guitars, probably few or no bowed strings, except maybe that celtic guy who'se a freind of j. donald walters, who'se name i keep forgetting, though he IS internationaly well known. nattalie hoss, who plays chellow with him sometimes.
    and no snared drums either, but plenty of bells and tympany.
    maybe tabla's and sitar and that base sitar thing, if forget what it's called.

    ok maybe not all those instruments being played at the same time on the same cuts either, but interesting and nonmundane combinations of them.

    actualy on most cuts only between three and five instruments would be playing at any one time, other then way in the background to fatten the mix on the studio versions.

    but this way, with this many, the show could probably go on for ever, with that many to draw from and take turns while the others were taking extended breaks, even long enough to sleep betweens their turns on stage.

    kitaro and yani would be in there somewhere, along with yattri, and a host of others.

    maybe even zappa back from the tao to play his bikalophone ...

    I thought about that as well, but I went with Banks for his personal style rather than fluid percision ;)

    Klaus Schultze is a good option as well! I named Tony Carey because I like the keyboards on Rainbow's Rising so much. Ah well, I probably forgot some other brilliant musicians as well..

    That's why we need him! :)
