Music bands with every member being "all-star" talent

Yes. I think Stefan is pretty solid. Boyd Tinsley was actually a pretty mediocre violinist and while LeRoi Moore was very good, he wasn't the monster player that Jeff Coffin is. Rashawn Ross, Tim Reynolds, and Buddy Strong are also monster players and Carter Beuaford has always been a GOAT.

 

Frank Zapa Band another


Frank wouldn't let you on unless you were some prodigy, here's steve vai about auditioning:

 

boyd was mediocre on average , but he’s also played some of the most mind blowing things I’ve ever heard . So he has all star peaks as well I’d say . But they definitely perform above the sun of their parts . Had some magic chemistry

 

Iron Maiden.

Figured my first post on the forum should mention them.

Good talk, carry on...

 

Out of curiosity why did you wait a decade to post?

 

My guess is that the washing machine in the basement finally gave up the ghost. Now that mom no longer comes down he was just needing a little human touch…

 

The Police
The Smiths
Big Country
Love and Rockets
They Might Be Giants
Rush (even thought I'm not a fan)
Stone Roses
Radiohead
The Beatles
The Who
Queen
Junior Brown
Muse
The Jam
Foo Fighters

There are probably more. Those aren't necessarily my favorites but I have to give respect to them for their musicianship of all members.

 

The Weather Report and
Radiohead

 

Not a whole lotta love for Led Zeppelin around here.

 

Get out.

 

Excellent mention -- I'm not sure Bauhaus has been posted yet, but they definitely deserve a spot on the all-star list.

 

I thought about putting them too, but with all 4 I foolishly left them off.

 

Great call.

Peter Murphy or Bauhaus?
