One band/artist for the rest of your life

[act]

silly topic i know,but imagine that you for some unknown reasons are only allowed to listen to one band/artist for the rest of your Days.
the rules are simple you can listen to a band/artist and all the members side Projects.

so how shall you Think,do you go for a Classic band that most likely not will release any new material,or some newer stuff that continue to produce new albums.

there are so much Music i should miss,but i Went for.

neal morse and all his Projects.

there is no deeper meaning here its just for fun.

so what is your choice.please play along.

cheers

[Sean]

Just kill me if this is the only choice.

Seriously

[act]

just for fun ,come on and play along.

cheers

[Sean]

I'm sure someone will.

[SRS]

I'll play

The Flower Kings and all their side projects. (of which there are tons)

Now do I also get the side projects of the side projects? For example, since I picked Flower Kings, I get Transatlantic, but do I also get Neal Morse, Spocks, Marillion and Dream Theater and all of their side projects? And now with Anderson/Stolt I should also get access to the Yes catalog. So Flower Kings I think will get me a giant catalog of music to enjoy for the rest of my life.

None. I'll take my beater Brazilian classical guitar and play whatever the hell I want.

The minimalism that keeps on giving exponentially. All you need is an instrument .

Cardiacs or Tim Smith anything. I never thought Zappa could be moved from this slot but for the last year its been this way. For now. HA

[JKL2000]

I think the way to go would be Genesis, then you could include all Gabriel, Hacket Collins, etc., and everything Tony Levin's been involved in cause he was in Gabriel's live band, everything Bruford's been involved in so a lot of Yes and Crimson, etc. all Belew, so some Laurie Anderson, Talking Heads. It never ends!

Hmm, not the side project's side project's. How about Stomu Yamashta's Go? Then you'd get all Klaus Schulze, Traffic, Return to Forever, and Far East Family Band. What I'm trying to do is find a way to get all Klause Schulze and also get a lot of other good stuff. Maybe go with Tangerine Dream?

[JKL2000]

Ok, I think I know the band to go with: Centipede (of Septober Energy fame). You'd get Crimson, Soft Machine, Nucleus, and a ton of other jazz and classical.

Oh, did I tell you I consider Live Aid to be a band?

[Zeuhlmate]

If that is allowed:
Miles Davis and all his musicians side projects.
Frank Zappa and all his musicians side projects.
King Crimson and all "his" bandmembers side projects.
Christian Vander and all "his" bandmembers side projects.
etc.

Soft Machine - hoping that the Legacy project will endure and that Steve F will publish many more archival CDs & DVDs

Or else, just kill me along with Sean.

Good thing about Soft Machine is that these side-projects encompass a major pert of the Canterbury

[thedunno]

easy: Cardiacs

[Lopez]

The Byrds for me. I already have a stack of Byrds and of bands-with-former-Byrds-people CDs over two-feet high, and there's a ton I don't have. Heck, I'd never get around to hearing all Byrds-related stuff if I started now with the New Christy Minstrels and Les Baxter's Balladeers and listened chronologically and alphabetically for the rest of my life. And former/related members are still cranking stuff out.

[NogbadTheBad]

I would probably go with Henry Cow as that would also give me access to

Fred Frith solo, Art Bears, Casa Bravo, many many side projects
Chris Cutler, Cassiber, Science Group, News From Babel, etc, etc
John Greaves, National Health
Geoff Leigh, Hatfield & The North, Aksak Maboul
Lindsey Cooper, Mike Oldfield - Hergest Ridge, Egg, Comus, Hillage - Fish Rising
Dagmar Krause, Slapp Happy

King Crimson would be the other one with all Fripp collaborations, Levin's huge collaboration list, Trey Gunn, connections to Yes, ELP, Atomic Rooster.

[strawberrybrick]

I've played this before and it comes down to Gong. Just never get tired of it, and quite a large umbrella of music around it, including a NEW album on the horizon!

In my youth however it may have been Wire.

[100423]

King Crimson and all the offshoots would work fairly well for me.

I be bored outta my skull in a week, no matter who I would pick.

Well that's a given, I still find it hard to believe I survived with around 100 albums in my mid teens.

Pat Metheny

[Yodelgoat]

The Mormon Tabernacle Choir, for surely, this would be the end of days...

But if it werent, I could possibly get by on the Moody Blues. Strange choice, and I'd probably regret it, but thats what I came up with.

But out of my first 100 albums, I'd say that half of them are in top actual top 100... I think I got really lucky that Supertramp's COTC was my first album, and that everything ensued naturally from there on. I can't imagine if it had been a Slade or a Bowie album

The Mormon Tabernacle Choir, for surely, this would be the end of days....

Isn't that the last album that Dr Johnny Fever played before ripping the shreds of the next one when WKRP went "rock"??
