Ryth we can use your list if you will continue to update it as we all decide on who is the best, does that sound good?
A few more thoughts:
Vox:
Ian Gillan
Janis Joplin
Guitar:
Bernie Marsden/Mick Moody
Scott Gorham
Bass:
Andy Fraser
Paul Mcartney (i know out of genre and a prat but his melodic style would suit and as a bassist hes underated)
How are we gonna choose who gets the gig?
My list wouldn't logically work..there's like four people on drums. I'm just saying they'd be good representatives, I don't think many people know the people on my list well enough.
Honestly we don't have enough voted for any one person to set it up appropiately. I think we should try again with a new genre, classic rock is too damn broad.
I dont think there is anyone on your list who is obscure. And the same problem will crop upwith every genre. Its a shame you cant have a number of polls within threads i.e. poll for classic rock singer, then bass, guitar, drums etc within one thread.
If we do go to another genre can i suggest:
80's Thrash:
Drums: Dave Lombardo
Bass: Cliff Burton
Guitar: Jeff Hannemann
Guitar: Kerry King
Vocals: Glenn Benton
What, no keyboard ?
Emerson, Lake & Palmer anyone ?
Everytime I see this thread I want to just go:
Sean Connery.
You'd be surprised how many people don't know the magic of Robert Fripp.
Well in thrash...
Drums: Dave Lombardo
Bass: Cliff Burton
Guitar: Dave Mustaine
Guitar: Kerry King or Marty Friedman
Vocals: Tom Araya or Mille Petrozza
As for synths, I suppose we should...at least for genres like progressive (which we do need to get to like now!). ELP is win by the way.
so can everyone agree on dave and cliff so far?
I wouldn't pick Dimebag personally. :(
