How about..... Keith Emerson from THE NICE on keyboards? Then add Greg Lake from KING CRIMSON to do vocals and play bass and guitar? And round things out with Carl Palmer from ATOMIC ROOSTER to play drums? That would make a fairly talented trio. Though I suppose some would claim there would be more pretention that talent, I wouldn't be one of them. |

You get tired of the usual boring musicians... How about this great group: Wayne Shorter-Reeds Eddie Jobson-Keyboards Victor Wooten-Bass Jack DeJohnette-Drums Now that would be a great Prog-fusion band.

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 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!
