1. You get a singer, guitarist, bassist and drummer. 2. Don't be a bellend and pick a whole band that already exists. They have to be from separate bands. 3. Singer is based on their voice and not their ability to play bass/guitar etc. If you pick Geddy Lee for bass, he doesn't get to be singer. 4. They can be dead.
For me it's;
SINGER: Layne Staley (Alice in Chains) GUITAR: Geordie (Killing Joke) BASS: Jamie Stewart (The Cult) DRUMS: Budgie (Siouxsie and the Banshees)
Stefan Moore, Stefan Moore running down the wing. Stefan Moore, Stefan Moore running down the wing. He runs like a cheetah, his crosses couldn't be sweeter. Stefan Moore. Stefan Moore. Stefan Moore.

Keyboards: Steve Nieve (from Elvis Costello's Attractions / Imposters)
Bass: Mikal Cronin (from Ty Segall's band, also a solo artist in his own right) He is also a really good sax player.
Drums: Valentina Magaletti (been in loads of bands, e.g. Vanishing Twin)
Lead guitar: David Tattersall (The Wave Pictures)
Rhythm guitar: Frank Black (Pixies)
If I had to choose living people, then I would've gone for k.d. lang & Kevin Rowland (Dexys) on vocals.
But seeing as we're allowed to choose those no longer with us, I would like Sinead O'Connor and Otis Redding.
Terry Edwards (The Higsons /Tindersticks/ PJ Harvey etc) as as utility player (various brass / woodwind instruments / keyboards, he can play pretty much anything)
and The Big Man Clarence Clemons on sax too please.

Would go to watch these perform:
Lead - James Brown Guitar - Prince (although a one man band in himself) Bass - Louis Johnson Drums - Stewart Copeland
If I could extend: Keys - Stevie Wonder (again multi instrumentalist) Percussion - Shelia E.
Louis Johnson: a bad mofo on that bass. Legend.

I think they'd invent a new genre!

SINGER: George Michael GUITAR: Gary Moore BASS: Bernard Edwards DRUMS: Paul Ferguson
I'm not sure it would come together very well though.
Big Paul Ferguson?
He was ASTONISHING at KJ's gig at the Albert Hall this year.

Patton is underrated but the people who know, know.

Which brings up another problem for people like me - I love music, it's my favourite art form, but I'm a really bad musician. Dreadful. I've tried. I can tell you who I enjoy, I can tell you who makes my ears swan, my eyes spark, my heart do the double bass drum-kick in 'Be my Baby', but I genuinely, genuinely have no idea who the best musicians are. As a non-musician, I'm just guessing.
