Two would be Lake and Bruford, three Bruford.

Update, forgot Levin...KC and Yes.

I'll have to take a rain check on this challenge, as I can't come up with any members of Jethro Tull I'd want in my Big Six Supergroup. I only know Ian Anderson, and no offence, but I don't want to choose him as the lead vocalist when I could have Jon Anderson in my supergroup instead. Confused

Several large egos in this line-up, it could have been very interesting musically or it maybe it would have just ended in an on-stage punch-up as they tried to outdo each other:
Keith Emerson - ELP, Keyboards
Steve Howe - Yes, Guitar
Dave Gilmour - Pink Floyd, Guitar
Ian Anderson - Jethro Tull, Vocals & Flute
John Wetton - King Crimson, Vocals & Bass
Phil Collins - Genesis, Drums
"And now...on the drums...Mick Underwooooooooood!!!"

None of these musicians were in Jethro Tull or ELP though. 
Not many read the OP.

@Grumpy: Just out of curiosity, what do you imagine with a Rabin and Belew combination? Seems an odd match to me... (But well, there are more odd matches proposed here... Tongue)

^^I'm glad they'll all be able to get along! Bit surprised at the lack of love for Steve Howe, it would be a dead heat between him and Jan Akkerman as my favourite guitarist.

Well John Bonham said Barriemore Barlow was the "greatest rock drummer England ever produced" so maybe you could go for him?

I guess he gets overlooked amongst the Palmers and Brufords of this world.

On that basis I will go for -

Barriemore Barlow - Tull, drums
Rick Wright - Floyd, keys
Jon Anderson - Yes, vocals
Jamie Muir - KC, percussion
Greg Lake - ELP, bass, guitar, vocals
Steve Hackett - Genesis, guitar

Keys - Keith Emerson
Guitar - Steve Hackett
Voc - Ian Anderson
Drums - Bill Bruford (KC)
Bass - Chris Squire

You said two guitars, but I don't want another guitarist.
I mean, if I could put Steve Howe in, I would..

I imagine modern sounds. Pushing musical boundaries, perhaps.

Squire , Emerson, Hackett, Gilmour, Bruford, Anderson (Ian)

nothing else makes any sense to me! It's funny that you can put the bass and drums of the classic Yes line up together only because Bruford played in 2 of the bands (3 if you count Genesis!)

I put Jon in on vocals, but that turned out to be almost by default. If I had put Howe on guitar, I would have had to have put PG on vox. I would be interested in hearing any of these lineups, impossible as they may be.

Bitching is an instrument I'm not familiar with.

It's one he has mastered over the years....practice makes perfect. LOLClap
