[QUOTE="Dannyalcatraz, post: 3669097, member: 19675"] Very thorough, and you [I]still [/I]missed some! (Of course, almost everybody in music knows everybody). You missed Rainbow (1975-77, 1994) keyboardist Tony Carey, who had a solo career which featured "Fine Fine Day" and another band, Planet P Project (most noted for its hit "Why Me?" and whose name is a reference to Robert Heinlein's Starship Troopers). Yngwie J. Malmsteen started off with the band Steeler. He also worked with Joe Lynn Turner...formerly of Fandango and a man who worked with YJM and with Blackmore in Deep Purple & Rainbow also has solo albums with Glenn Hughes... Alumni from YJM's Rising Force bands include Jens Johannsen, who has worked with the phenominal jazz bass player Jonas Hellborg and recording legend Ginger Baker (of Cream, Blind Faith, Masters of Reality, Hawkwind, Public Image Ltd. and others). Baker also worked with Bill Laswell. Bill Laswell and Jonas Hellborg are both incredible bass players whose discography contains sooooo many people that I don't have time to list them all...but metalheads should take note that Laswell helped bring Buckethead to prominence (sometime member of G'n'R), and worked with Bootsy Collins in a band called Praxis...after which Bootsy did a metal album under the name Zillatron with Laswell and Buckethead. Hellborg's work includes work with Buckethead as well, and the incredible work of the late Shawn Lane. He has a taste for eastern flavored jazz and speedy metal. Shawn Lane? His shredwork on his Vigier Surfreter ([I]fretless[/I]) guitar is worth investigating. Public Image Limited was formed by John Lydon of the Sex Pistols, and successful soloist Jah Wobble. Hawkwind included members like Lemmy of Motorhead and Michael Moorcock (yes, the writer). Motorhead member Fast Eddie Clark and UFO bassist formed Fastway with Robert Plant-wannabe Dave King (of Flogging Molly, and after Fastway, Katmandu {with Mandy Meyer of Krokus}) Graham Bonnet was in a band with YJM-wannabe Chris Impellitieri. Ronnie James Dio started off in a band called Elf. Ritchie Blackmore is currently recording with Candace Night as Blackmore's Night- a pseudo-folk-rock band influenced by rennaisance music. Satriani taught not only Steve Vai and Kirk Hammet, but also Alex Skolnick (Savatage, Testament, Alex Skolnick Trio (a jazz ensemble), Charlie Hunter (a jazz phenom), David Bryson (Counting Crows), Kevin Cadogan (Third Eye Blind), Larry LaLonde (Primus, Possessed), Rick Hunolt (Exodus), Tim Calvert (Forbidden, Nevermore), and Phil Kettner (Laaz Rockit). Of those, Vai is probably his most notable of all- when Satch met him, he couldn't play at all, and after Joe's lessons, he got the role of lead axeman for Frank Zappa. As you can see, you could just do this for days and days... If I kept up at this, we'd quickly get into the prog-rock guys whose family tree is just as gnarly, mainly because of Yes and King Crimson. You see, Greg Lake of Emerson, Lake, and Palmer started off in King Crimson and Bill Bruford of Yes left to join KC, bringing in Plastic Ono Band's Alan White...Ono? That gets us to John Lennon & the Beatles! Sorry...this is somewhat addictive to me. [/QUOTE]
