If You Could Be Any Musician?
« on: March 11, 2005, 04:54:18 PM »

If you could be any musician apart from John, Paul, George or Ringo, who would it be and why?

This one is easy fro me right now...I'd say Billy Preston for all the people he's worked with and the fact he sat and played quite a lot with The Beatles. ;)

Any thoughts anyone?

^ A toughie. All the fun ones died too young.
Neil Young I think. Just for trhe journey he's been on, hangs out with good people (or at least used to) and made good music.

Keith Richards....he is the ultimate rock & roll rebel with classic raunchy riffs which define the Stones but I wouldn't have his drug & alcohol habit.

Daryl Steurmer from Genesis/Phil Collins. His music is heard every day on countless radio stations, he has played before royalty and at the largest venues in the world, and he can come home to Milwaukee and be totally anonymous here or anywhere. Its the best of all worlds, and a super fine guitar player on top of it.

If we're talking about musicians being alive,,,,Steve Gadd or Hal Blaine (it cant be bad being associated with 100 or so number one songs).

If any and it couldnt be a Beatle,,,,,give me Buddy Rich just for his skill alone.

Nice one guys....Some interestimg stuff. Like all your interpretations. ;)
Gadd in particular. Would be nice to know the recordings you been on and not be recognised...makes me think of Carol Kaye. The motown bassist.

Peter Gabriel

I love every second of music he made with Genesis and the lyrics he wrote.  

I love his voice and how unique it is.  He can convey emotion through his voice like few others can.

He has had a near perfect solo career that has allowed him to be commercially and financially successful without having to sacrifice his musical principles or vision.

Keith Moon. Just cuz he looked liked he was always having so much f-ing fun! Or Jim Morrison cuz he was just cool. Maybe Marianne Faithful cuz she got to date Mick Jagger and hang out with the Beatles. ;D

Good choice, maybe you could live a healthier version of his life and keep him around longer than he was...I still can't believe he died so young...yet looked so old.  Sad...

Yeah, I've never seen such a dramatic change in looks as in him. I mean, even Keith Richards didn't change overnight and he still looks sort of the same. Moon looked like a completely different person. Which goes to show you how much he abused his body. Bummer, cuz he was so great.

Musician? Hmmm..someone already mentioned this before but I'd like to be a member of Phil Spector's Wrecking Crew (with Hal Blaine, Ray Pohlman, Carol Kaye, Tommy Morgan, Frankie Capp, etc...)
