  8. Vocals: Hendrix
    Guitar: Hendrix
    Drums: Ginger Baker
    Bass: Hard decision... between Jaco Pastorius, Flea, Victor Wooten, and Les Claypool

    i picked Hendrix for vocals because i absolutely fucking love his music-- and i think his soulful voice couldn't be more fitting.
    plus, i don't really consider myself to have a "favorite" vocalist. Vocals are unlike any other instrument.
    for instance, I could learn how to play a song on my guitar, and recreate it almost perfectly.
    But vocals are more unique... and it's really fucking rare for one vocalist to be able to even come close to recreating another's vocals.

    Good luck recreating hendrix's voice. i've never heard anything like it lol

    edit: by the way, i'm surprised nobody else loves Ginger Baker as much as i do. his beats weren't all that complex, but they were fuckin good beats.

    Bass: eek... my playing is probably based around flea, les claypool, and maybe bootsy? stuff from parliament... i obsessed over jaco for a while... ahhh way too hard.
    Drummer: probably Tim alexander (primus). but all the percussion i've been listening to is mostly like... aphex twin and amon tobin... and a lot of techno... which aphex twin and amon tobin's percussion tends to be really complex.

    lovely.
