Famous 29 

BTW, I don't think any of these people played together.

 

Allan Holdsworth - Synthaxe, Guitar

Steve Hillage - Guitar

Terry Bozzio - Drums

Sean Malone - Bass, Stick

Heather Findlay - Vocals

David Ragsdale - Violin  

David Jackson - Flute and Sax

Kerry Minnear - Keyboards





I`ve mentioned it on more than one "musicians" thread. I`ve played drums, bass and other instruments mostly in jazz bands. I even sat in with Jeff Healey once before he got The Jeff Healey Band together in 87. The most unusual musical thing I did though was playing a few gigs with a Sabbath cover band with a female vocalist.

I've got most of the Healey stuff. He shook the world there for a year or two. I'd love to hear him play some Jazz, I heard he can. With that over-the-top fingering method, he's got incredible reach.

I'll have to update the Forum Supergroup.

He`s currently got a jazz album out where he plays guitar and trumpet can`t recall the title. He was tough to play with because there were no visual cues so all you could do was just bash on and let him do his thing. I am in agreement with a lot of people who criticized him for having  relatively average musicians backing him up. It should have been called the Go Nuts Jeff Band. No doubt though, he`s an extremely gifted player. He has a club n Toronto called Healey`s and he regularily participates in the jam sessions they have there. When I was there about a year ago Edgar Winter was there.

I'm not sure we'd want Howe and Hackett together again. Would we?

I can't help thinking about many prog supergroups, they are so many great performers and songwriters whose styles and personalities would be impossible to fit in a single band altogether.

 I.  John Wetton (bass, vocals)

     Andy Latimer (guitars, flute, vocals)

     Tony Banks (keyboards, acoustic guitar)

     Phil Collins (drums, vocals)

 

 II.  Greg Lake (bass, acoustic guitar, vocals)

      Steve Hackett (guitars, vocals)

      Keith Emerson (keyboards)

      Terry Bozzio (drums)

 

 III.  Damian Wilson (vocals)

       Geddy Lee (bass, vocals)

       Trevor Rabin (guitars, vocals)

       Patrick Moraz (keyboards)

       Neil Peart (drums)

 

 IV.  Frank Zappa (guitar, vocals)

       Jaco Pastorius (bass, vocals)

       Chick Corea (keyboards)

       Christian Vander (drums, vocals)

 

The latter is not a band, it's World War III itself!
