What band do you wish would make a comeback?

With John and George still alive. :-(

Honestly, though, who knows how they would have been or fared after 1970 (ditto others, like Buddy Holly from 1959 on), had they stayed together or re-formed. Even their solo efforts, although some of the earlier stuff was actually rehearsed with the other Beatles, don't necessarily provide an indication. Would they have weathered disco? Would they have kept up pumping out great records in the '80s and '90s?

One thing's for sure: the supercilious rock critics that evolved in the late '60s would've attacked them for no longer 'innovating' and probably also for no longer 'being relevant.' So perhaps they split at the right time. But, still, to regroup as a band within the past 15 years or so, doing occasional sessions and some degree of touring in the new generation of stadium venues....that'd have been great, no matter how you cut it.

I just saw Paul live -- of them all, he was the most prolific and probably the most compelling live performer after the Beatles broke up, but I could definitely see all four of them putting on a similar show, though the thought is so mindboggling as to be barely within comprehension.

with two bullets.

oops, didn't read your qualification.

Champaign, Illinois area band, mid to late '90s, had a big radio hit in '95. I totally loved them, and they just vanished after their fourth album.

He was the band. I enjoy his solo stuff as much as anything the band did.

They had him drawn with totally white hair, that was a surprise.
Yeah his solo stuff is great too, I love that Rei Momo CD.
But it would be great to see them together again.

I had never seen that episode so I just assumed it was new.

they do periodic regroupings over the years... always fun stuff comes out of it.

...might be on the horizon. The only stipulation is that Peter Gabriel said that he would be interested if they do all-new material instead of re-visiting the past.

Of course, this is just one of those things you hear from a "friend." I really don't know if this is truly for real...

...saying nothing will be happening in the next year, including talking about it.

Yep, as per usual, a day late and a, er...*sigh*

So, we'll have to wait at least another 10-20 years.

They were touring a couple of years ago, as a one-time thing, and I missed it.

though Joe doesn't seem to be too into the old style

:blush: :blush:

my friends and i meant them after a concert and spent several hours talking to them about stuff. really nice guys. ok-sappy!

Metallica, their stuff lately has been lacking, a lot...Life of Agony...their last cd i thought was "weak"....The eagles, pink floyd...

Grebo in general. The Wonder Stuff had a newer album out awhile back, but it was dead boring. I miss the good stuff.

fsc

but the brothers would probably get into a fight on stage and never play a note. mid 60`s yardbirds would be nice

The Regatta de Blanc Police, not the Synchronicity version.

or grand funk railroad.

maybe mahogany rush
