As "Trio" is thought that the band had three members most time of his career. Therefore are excluded e.g. King Crimson (Red era), Genesis (post ...ATTWT era) or Atomic Rooster (before Farlowe era) etc... Generally, playing in trio is demanding for each member´s mucisianship. There is nowhere to hide behind any wall of sound (especially on concerts), shortly you must to show the best of you!

Crimson Jazz is my latest favorite. There are others on the list I know and many I don't. I put Rush at the bottom of what I know. They're not bad but I'm just not a fan-attic. Of course, no disrespect to those who love them.

I wanted to be all iconoclastic and vote for one of the lesser-known bands I love (The Nice are very nice, and Triumvirat are becoming a fast favorite); however, Rush are just really, really good.

Other: Delusion Squared. But as they've only released one album so far and thus not a fair comparison, then from the list I'd choose Rush just narrowly over ELP. ------------- Future prosperity lies in the way you heal the world with love (Introitus - The hand that feeds you) |
