Best three piece band ?

[bassking]

The Jam - here's why . . .

cant argue with that will always be one of my fave bands

 

[darters74]

Do like the Jam but little bit before my time. Keane and Muse for me.

 

[Willy Dangle]

As an alternative to the numerous ticket threads and "other" threads, who is your favourite three piece band (by this I mean those who play thier own instruments, not vocal groups).

The Jam ?
Jimi Hendrix Experience ?
Cream ?
ZZ Top ?

Over to you.

The Bad Shephards....Album: Yan, Tyan, Tethera, Methera!

 

[The Buttery Biscuit Base]

 

[Norman Potting]

Having played in serval bands with different line-ups, I always found 3-pices bands worked best for me as a player.

The serval, see above. How do they manage to play as they lack opposable thumbs?

For Sussex music fans of a certain age, how about "The Drivers"?

[1066familyman]

The Necks

 

[Eric Potts]

The Beatles.

A bit of 60's satire there ( sorry Ringo )

 

[DavidinSouthampton]

Being older than most, I would guess, than most who post on here (58 and counting), No question it is Cream.The original supergroup, in that it was the three best musicians of their day coming together, with the superb Clapton arguably being the least gifted of the three. Jack Bruce could hold his own as a bassist (electric or double) in any company.

 

[smillie's garden]

Some great bands already mentioned. I also really like Minutemen.

 

[Lush]

 

[The Modfather]

The greatest band ever.... The Jam

[JamesAndTheGiantHead]

Dinosaur Jr
Beastie Boys

Supergrass
Flaming Lips.
