Your dream band

No specific music genre - rock, pop, r&b, country, rap, blues, jazz, etc. I want to hear your nominees for an all-time all-star band. If you had the power to resurrect and an unlimited supply of money, who would you pick?

Here are my choices for my dream rock/blues band:

Lead Vocals - Steve Perry
Female Lead Vocals - Janis Joplin (younger Janis, pre-drugs)
Lead Guitar - Joe Satriani
Lead Guitar - Stevie Ray Vaughn
Rhythm/slide guitar - Kenny Wayne Shephard
Bass - Les Claypool
Percussion - Neil Peart
Keyboards - Billy Joel
Harmonica - Paul Butterfield
Songwriters - Bob Dylan, Neil Young, Bruce Springsteen, Muddy Waters
