King Crimson is one of my prog rock favorite bands, together with Pink Floyd, Genesis, Yes, Van Der Graaf Generator, Gentle Giant, Jethro Tull, Emerson Lake and Palmer (the order is random)

Bill Bruford     Percussion, Drums     
Mel Collins      Saxophones        &n bsp;
David Cross      Violin, Keyboards   
Robert Fripp     Guitar, Keyboards, Mellotron
Ian McDonald     Flute, Keyboards, Sax (Alto)       
John Wetton      Bass, Vocals

Now theres a show

Great suggestion - but I like Crimson with saxophones. Let's replace Cross with David Jackson or Didier Malherbe.

realistic possible line up:

ROBERT FRIPP: Guitars

GREG LAKE: Bass Guitar, Vocals

BILL BRUFORD: Drums

ADRIAN BELEW: Repeats when depressed and Guitar

 

My Ultimate Line Up (well not really):

ROBERT FRIPP: Guitar

PHILTY ANIMAL TAYLOR: Drums

IAN GILLAN: Vocals

KEITH EMERSON: Mellotron, Synths, Organ etc etc

DAVE GROHL: Guitar and Bass

^^I wonder how the above line up would get on and how they would sound.
