Superstar Prog Band? this should have been a New thread because I think we all just might Chime in............if this is Fantasy then lets have a Battle of the Bands

Mike Oldfield
Rick Wakeman
Phil Collins
Greg Lake

just imagine the Vocals, the Studio Artistry of Masters together.......ahhhhh

[yorksrvc]

hey sharc.........opinion is pouring out of me........

Mike Oldfield: Excellent choice..he slipped my mind.....would he also play guitar?
Rick Wakeman:

Phil Collins: My favorite drummer, 'til MP came along and I love Phil's vocals

Greg Lake: I like his work, but as a bass player myself, I need a little more action. The thought of Phil and Greg singing together is very interesting

GREAT CHOICES!! I'd like to hear that group too

[yorksrvc]

sssssssshhhh!! I'm not real familiar with too many of his CD's. The next 2 after Tubular Bells were nice, but I haven't heard him since then. THAT'S a long time ago. I thought he played guitar, just haven't heard in a while. I like your SUPERSTAR Line up

As the proud owner of 25 of Mikes recording , you are missing some Classics. These recommendations are not like his 1st few...

Platnuim and Qe2 are tonal genious
5 miles out is an opus exceptional
then there is the Simon Phillips years on Drums.......Crisis an exceptional Recording with double footpedals flying

finally you can get these AWESOME recordings for peanuts:http://search.half.ebay.com/Mike-Old...QpgZ2QQmZmusic

Way to go sharc....like giving drugs to an addict

As Alice Cooper sang "You'd force feed a diabetic a candy cane!"

Now lets take another road.

Music is an art form which I define as an expression of emotions in one or several forms. Progressive music is a more complex expression of emotions through melodies, lyrics or a complete musical picture plus of course elements from the list

Therefore I cannot define anything specific in the list. Except that great progressive rock knocks my emotions over. Modern classic music can also do the same.
