Ok. So poor Gary Moore died today. Rock is being taken from us.

Thinking about those that died young. What would make a great line up?

Dio on vocals?
Paul Kossoff on rhythm (slightly controversial)
Gary Moore on lead
Keith Moon on drums
Paul Gray on bass

And I’d like Marc Bolan writing for them.

Lee Brilleaux on vocals.

Good call on Paul Kossoff.

Is any of JLS dead yet?

Is any of JLS dead yet?

😉

Can I change my mind?

SRV and Jimi.

Oh and Janis on vocals too.

darcy – you keep mentioning jls. Who are they?

No CG, you can’t change your mind……

Jimi was never a band member, he was a one man show….

I want a band that will play well together which is why I ignored Hendrix.

Janis can do backing vocals.

OK, so we can have SRV?

bonham drums
Bon scott/janis Joplin vocals
hendrix guitar
An other bass

I was going to google JLS but I did this once as Jedwood was mentioned on Radio 4 it was a waste of time so I go for generic boy/girl band of limited talent of talent show fame

Hmmmm,

I like your lead vocals Junkyard.

But then I could have put Phil Lynott in there.

Lead vocals are an awkward call….

Jimi was never a band member, he was a one man show

yet he was in a band for most of his career I dont think you should be the manager anymore
C_G you can who you want in your band

OK, so we can have SRV?

No.

LOL

I ignored all proper Blues guitarists. Otherwise John Lee Hooker would’ve been in there as ‘occassional guitarist’ and voodoo specialist 😉

Pete de Freitas on drums.

Understated, underrated, sadly missed.

I dont think you should be the manager anymore

Oh FFS, now we need a good dead manager!

Freddie
Hendrix
Entwistle
Bonham

Oh dear, typical STW, we can’t agree on anything and it’s not even bike related!

Freddie

I can’t allow him….

GREAT singer and entertainer, no questions asked. But he wasn’t a rock singer. Not in the truest sense.

surely bonham is a shoe in as drummer?
i see your point re Hendrix he would hog the limelight – think we need a band of entirely drink related deaths then one for other drugs does that help?

Bon Scott – Lead vocals
Keith Moon (Headphones sellotaped to his head optional) – Drums

My Twopenneth 🙂

Oh FFS, now we need a good dead manager!

Malcolm McLaren of course!

Any chance I could sneak in one of the dead Gibb brothers then?

I don’t want Freddie either!

Any chance I could sneak in one of the dead Gibb brothers then?

that sounds all wrong

that sounds all wrong

it does suggest there is a choice of dead gibb brothers as well

Oh FFS, now we need a good dead manager

😆
peter grant legend and a wrestler

Oh crap. OK – Bon Scott can do vocals.

We need a Slash / Santana type album now. A solid band with multiple vocals dependant on track (too many good BUT dead vocalists).

Lead – Gary Moore
Rythym – Paul Kossof
Bass – Paul Gray
Drums – Moon (sorry, I prefer his style)

Singers:-
Phil Lynott
Bon Scott
Dio

Backing singers:-
Janis Joplin

Manager:-
Malcolm McLaren (until I’m available dead)

Kurt has to be in there somewhere.

Freddie
I can’t allow him….

Wow – hard crowd 8)

Bon Scott then!

edit: too late 😀

Malcolm Mclaren managing Morrison, Hendrix, Entwhistle, Bonham/Moon doing Kings of the Wild Frontier FTW

Joe Strummer vocals/rhythym guitar, Keith Moon drums, Jimi Hendrix lead guitar, Jah Wobble bass and the bands name Play Loud

Kurt has to be in there somewhere.

Writer (along with Marc Bolan).

the bands name Play Loud

The rate we’re going it’ll be Heaven’s 17!

I didn’t even know Jah Wobble was dead 😯

Where have i been ?

Wrong about moon
http://www.stylusmagazine.com/articles/weekly_article/stylus-magazines-50-greatest-rock-drummers.htm
he is second to oh quess who see told you we needed a good manager 😉

stamps feets shouts for grant to turn up and get all persuassive on McLaren – that would be a short fight between an art house lightweight and a coke fuelled nutter.

Can Kurt not just make the sandwiches or something good but not great

Vocals – Lux Interior
Bass – John Entwistle
Drums – Mitch Mitchell
Guitar – Jerry Garcia
Keyboard – Richard Wright

Wowzer. They’d probably sound *terrible* together, but I’d still pay good money to see a line-up like that 😀

Wrong about moon

Rock ain’t about ratings – Moon had the attitude.

Syd Barrett gets kicked out after the first album for being crap

Lux Interior gets the call to replace {good call}

Shoot me! Can’t believe I forgot to include Rory Gallagher. 😯

Edit: didn’t realise Mitch Mitchell wasn’t around.

where’s my gun?

Keith Moon drank with Oliver Reed thats good enough for me

You’re all thinking TOO SMALL.

I want the best. OK, the best of the dead, but the best none the same.

I reckon my band could work……

Not Elvis? would he?, just for you?
