THEY SHOULD ALL PLAY ONE BIG ASS PIPE ORGAN AND CALL IT "30 HANDS ON ONE ORGAN".

(x-post)

Unfortunately, Lee Perry would then make a complete hash (oh my sides!) of the production - so it would be passed on to Bill "eclectic fusion" Laswell for "executive" duties. Laswell would then turn everything into his usual worthy soup of well-intentioned nothingness.

This is the trouble with exciting sounding all-star "projects". They all end up being neutered by Bill Laswell. Or Quincy Jones. Or Jah Wobble.

Is Gabriel Mekler still around? Alive? Splendid. He shall produce. Laswell and Perry be damned.

― Hurlothrumbo (hurlothrumbo), Tuesday, 18 May 2004 12:46 (twenty-two years ago)

Ok. Imagine the worst Group possible. with Phil Collins on Drums AND Vocals.

― Russell Dixon (Skinny), Tuesday, 18 May 2004 13:13 (twenty-two years ago)

I love Phil Collins's drumming!

― Hurlothrumbo (hurlothrumbo), Tuesday, 18 May 2004 13:20 (twenty-two years ago)

Me too.

― Jordan (Jordan), Tuesday, 18 May 2004 13:21 (twenty-two years ago)

My fantasy combo is different now -- it consists of Phil Collins, Mitch Mitchell and Jabo Starks on drums, and Goldy McJohn, Jon Lord, and Billy Joel (Attila era!) on organs. Paul Rodgers shall sing.
