I'd like the Beatles a lot more if John, George, and Ringo didn't write anything and gave 100% creative control to Paul.

I'd probably like Rush if Geddy Lee didn't have an awful awful awful voice.

>I'd stomach ELP better if it was literally just a bassist and a drummer

>>71693883
Gotta have that odd ball Ringo song tho, I'd also maybe like 21 pilots if Tyler had nothing to do with it at any point.

You just have awful awful taste

>>71693968
I'm not saying it has to be a two piece band, but fuck Emerson. I can't stand his keyboard playing, would rather them have had a different pianist or something.

>>71694040
But then they'd just be your average run-of-the-mill rock band, hardly even prog.
Emerson was what made ELP ELP. You wouldn't see any other prog band clearing out an entire Olympic stadium to play a reworked classical piece, meant to be played by an orchestra, with three people in the dead of winter.

...That said, though, I do wish Lake stuck with King Crimson instead of going onto ELP. That way we wouldn't have Wetton's cigarette voice on Red.

>>71694040
Nah, you're just a retarded person.

>>71693883
Nah. George wrote the best songs

I'd like Bob Dylan with a new vocalist

>>71694257
Same, but also with a new lyricist and guitarist.

I'd like Yes so much more if their songs weren't so complicated. Squire needs to tone that shit back a notch, bass is too trebly. Bruford could have done a bit less too, thrown out that jazz shit... Steve Howe diddley-diddleys too much and doesn't play enough power chords, John Anderson should sing deeper and why the fuck did they decide to throw keys into their band anyways? What kind of rock band has fucking keyboards?

>John Anderson should sing deeper
This but unironically.
Anderson's terrible lyricism and rancid vocals absolutely killed Yes for me.
I'm not biting off the rest of your bait, though.

C'mon man, it's based in eastern philosophy n' shit. You should put some more Himalayan salt lamps in your room to clear away those bad vibes and open that third eye of yours.

ok m8

Bruce Dickinson to turn down those corny 80s vocals find them annoying

>>71693854
I might be able to like Garry Glitters music if there was a way to cut out the ugly parts of his personal life...

>>71694085
I couldn't stand Wetton's cigarette voice at first but it grew on me after a while since I'm such a massive fan of the instrumental work.

>>71694712
it's nice to know I'm not the only one who prefers Di'Anno era Iron Maiden.

>>71695421
I know... but still. Imagine Lake delivering Starless with that same bonechilling gusto that he did with Epitaph. No joke, I would probably starting crying right there and then.

>>71694324
a prog rock band has keys you absolute swine

>>71693977
so, if it was just a drummer?

>>71694040
Fuck you.

>>71694324
well then i guess listen to their 80s AOR output?

>>71694324
Just listen to Drama.

Joy division if Ian Curtis wasn't the vocalist
