Female supergroup?

[nicepace]

One of the reasons I like Christine so much is that she has the nerve to play an instrument in a rock band along with the boys. (Didn't they tell her in school that's not allowed?)

Pure fantasy here, folks. If a promoter put together a "female supergroup," who would be in it? (No male musicians allowed.)

My line-up: Christine McVie on keyboards, Meg White (from White Stripes) on drums, Chrissie Hynde (from the Pretenders) on bass, Joan Jett on guitar. We wouldn't need a lead vocalist; those girls could take turns belting out tunes. But maybe we could use a second guitarist; I'm thinking maybe Charlotte Caffey (from the Go-Gos).

Any more ideas?

And Sheila E.

Her name is Candy Dulfer.

Well, however you spell her name, she can play the sax pretty damned well.

......and the bassist is spelled correct...:lol:

Well, I go for the "style points" & "degree of difficulty", not so much on "technical merit". :laugh:

Lucinda Williams, guitars/vocals
Christine McVie, keyboards vocals
Nancy Wilson, guitars, vocals

And, well, I'm not sure about the bass and drums

Sadly, The Duchess (http://http://www.spectropop.com/remembers/DuchessObit.htm) has passed, but I think Lady Bo (http://http://www.ladybo.com/gallery/gallery.html) is still rocking.

And could you go past Carol Kaye on bass?

hmm I always thought Nancy Wilson was a decent but not great guitarist..

She's a solid, versatile musician. I agree that she's not going to blow Eddie Van Halen off the stage with her guitar solos, but she can probably out-fingerpick him.

I think it would be interesting to see a girl group that accomplishes much more than three-chord power pop or power ballads. If they could check their egos at the door, could you imagine what Joni Mitchell, Carly Simon, Christine, Emmylou Harris, Rickie Lee Jones, etc. could pull off as a group? It would never happen, but my goodness. :eek:
