Shields------Watts-------Vicious------McCartney
Gillespie--------Gallagher--------Manzarek------Hendrix
Barrett-------Marley
Simple as.
the big man in goal, solid back four (good links on the left into midfield, especially, Watts in the hole to cover for Vicious's surging runs), obvious mixture of discipline and creativity in midfield, and a strike partnership with goals written all over it.

It's all happening!
Dunno there Sly, you might want the Christmas tree with wingbacks rather than a flat back four if young Sid is going to go AWOL. Also two bassists in your defence could be a recipe for disaster.
Gillespie flatters to deceive in my opinion - you'd be better off going for the real deal .. someone you can rely on like Iggy or Bon Scott. And the right wing is the last place you'd find gobby Bobby.
Dream line-ups never work. As Leggy said, it'll just be a wankathon. Or a sodothon.
New Race had a great line-up on paper in 1981. One Stooge (R Asheton), one MC5 (Thompson) and three Birdmen (Tek, Younger and Gilbert). Actually, they were pretty good, but the sum of parts is always going to have less value than the individual merits.

On at least one level this thread is ridiculous, because no matter how well the individuals in question would sound together there have been musicians lumped together here that would or could never possibly work together or even meet. But I'll play along. Here's a guitar-based five-piece.
Vocal - Marvin Gaye
Rhythm guitar & vocal - Joan Baez
Lead guitar - Clarence White
Percussion - Elvin Jones
Bass guitar - James Jamerson
Produced by Brian Wilson
My mention of Mr Jones above has me misty-eyed in light of his recent passing: a lovely man.

I think Emmylou's following amongst men is a bit healthier than Joan's for two or three reasons that haven't much to do with talent. I love her dearly, but Joan is certainly the stronger, more charismatic singer; but Emmylou's delivery (and look) is a bit sexier and a bit more vulnerable. As well Emmylou's ties to Gram make her all the more appealing to indie folksters and record-collecting Byrds fans like myself, to say nothing of romantics in light of all the slippin' around tunes on GP. I will say though that Emmylou's claims to folk/country legitimacy carried on a lot longer than Joan's; I'm disregarding most of her post-sixties output you see.
if ya mean his sparkly gold number he had, tis british (Hayman), nicht deutschen! i own it.andyblacktoo wrote:fender jaguar : mark refoy
bass : will carruthers
bizarre sixties german drum kit : jon mattock
fender telecaster / vocals : jason pierce
fender jaguar / theremin / vox continental / moog : pete kember
my fantasy lineup of live persons (would have to be a one off collaboration gig):
nick mccabe - ambient comet shredding geetar
kevin shields - rhythm guitar and textures
richard greentree (beta band) - bass
reni -drums
alice coltrane - harp/piano
roj stevens (ex-broadcast) - samples/keys
suzy honeyman (mekons) - violin (saw her play last month...)
stuart staples - vocals
sound engineer - jason pierce (with his ears circa 94)
well thats one of about 879 combinations,
cheerio,

I'm going to post something awful.
Axl Rose - singer
Buddy Rich - drummer
James Hetfield (during his drunken days) - guitar
Sid Vicious - bass
GG Allin - drugs
Jason Pierce - Effects and guitar
Sonic Boom - Synthesizer
and produced by Phil Spector.
the trick is to lock them all in the studio with no way out (and though three of them are dead) i still think it'd be fun to see. if ANYTHING got recorded, that'd be fun.
actually, this is a terribly boring post -.-
or how about this.
Björk's kid,
Kim Gordon & Thurston Moore's kid,
Kurdt Cobain & Courtney Love's kid,
Eminem's kid,
Madonna's kid
Jason Pierce's kid,
Flea's kid,
...i guess they're all about the same age? I really didn't even know Jason had a kid until i read it here.

Hey, twentysix! You wanna know how I've been? Well, I've been bankbroken, I've been heartbroken, AND my cat just threw up INSIDE of my running shoes, but otherwise, I'm doing great! I still think The Warlocks' Phoenix Album is the best thing ever, and I've discovered The Brian Jonestown Massacre, and I still do housework to "Let It Come Down."twentysixdollars wrote:Hey! Our favorite Chicagoan. How've you been?
I miss this board a lot, but I just can't commit to it anymore. It's like a full-time commitment, seriously. But I poke my head in every now and then and you guys still got it. Keep up the good conversations and thanks for asking,
On Fire.

My cat threw up on a copy of 'in search of shroedinger's cat', which is about quantum physics (the cat reference being about a hypothetical experiment involving a cat in a box with poison... then waiting two weeks and asking if the cat is living or dead (opening the box releases the poison, instantly killing the cat)On Fire wrote: ...AND my cat just threw up INSIDE of my running shoes, but otherwise, I'm doing great!

I guess she wasn't too keen on that idea.
the first lines 'let's see how high we can fly' just put you in a great energy mood :D that and 'angeldust' by faith no more are great songs to clean to.

Man, I just popped in, to check out how all you long suffering Pierce fans are doing when I dig a real stone cold jive turkey! Man this 26 dollars dude be one pompous brother!? You dig!?twentysixdollars wrote:On at least one level this thread is ridiculous, because no matter how well the individuals in question would sound together there have been musicians lumped together here that would or could never possibly work together or even meet.

I quote "I'll play along" and the wonderfully straight-faced criticism of someone else's idea for a post as "ridiculous". You so square brother 26! I hate (actually I love) to be critical but you can't read something of such genuine, astronomical pomposity and not be at least mildly piqued.
Anyway, that aside any of you real groove funk magneteers be knowing of a Spiritualized DVD, video or anything with any footage of chicken wing Pierce on it? I'd be real interested cos I heard about a Bobby Gillespie narrated documentary on channel 4 a while back. I know this ain't the right place to post this but I'm crap with the machinations of the intermicronetweb and I just love that Pierce dude. Damn, Jason's mama so fat when she eat stuff she eat a lot of it! You dig! Nuzzle my puzzle! Peace out.
