Best 3 piece rock band
 

I was cleaning out the basement and I found my old Rush lbums. I am talking about albums like All The Worlds A Stage, RUSH, A Farewell To King's, Fly By Night, Exit Stage Left etc etc. Of course, I put them on the old turntable and rocked out to some classic rush. I was rocking out with Neil Pert during is drums solos--man, that boy can play. This made me remember all the debates I would have with my former employees (young and not so young). We all came to an agreement that the top three 3 peice bands are RUSH, NIRVANA and THE POLICE. Out of those 3, who do you prefer and if you want to add any please do so.

I don't agrue with any of those...but gotta add Cream!

I dont know too much about Cream. What albums or songs would you reccommend?

Wow...pretty much all of them! I loved White Room, one of my favorite songs!

Hellooooo? Kingston Trio, anyone?

(Okay, totally kidding, though I confess they are a wee bit of a guilty pleasure for me)


In seriousness, I would say Buddy Holly and the Crickets, since they pioneered a lot of stuff used by later three-piece bands. :)

Me likey Green Day. And me likey XTC.

Green Day deserves to be on any list imo...great band!

Zz Top

I agree with Green Day and Nirvana.

Oh man, how could I forget them? Great band!!!

Jimi Hendrix Experience

one knotch down
The Police
Nirvana
Beastie Boys

And again...I forgot that The Experience was Jimi and two others....my bad! They certainly belong near the top!

We talked about Green Day but we always dismissed them because they do have a 4th member of the band. He has been part of their group for over 10 years now. He isnt part of the original group, but he is there with them on all of their songs after their first album. I always forget about Jimi. Man, he was truly a gifted musician.

North Mississippi Allstars are the best up and coming band anywhere.

Yeaaaaaaaaaaaaa...Kick it....... You got to fight for your rights to party..
...........The Beastie Boys !..........:D

Crosby, Stills and Nash

dexy's midnight runners!

you know, I was going to say that...but then changed my mind since I liked them better with Neil Young

By far Jimi Hendrix Experience

I didn't mention Emerson, Lake and Palmer.
"Pictures at an Exhibition" is great!
