Question Ultimate 4-piece Supergroup

Under 'And finally' on page 26 ot this months Guitarist (issue 305) the question is raised of what would be your ultimate 4-piece supergroup.

For me, and keeping things fairly recent, it could be:
Vocals/Guitar: Matt Bellamy
Guitar: John Frusciante
Bass: Flea
Drums: Dave Grohl

Othe views?

Are you allowed a guitarist / singer as well as a 2nd guitarist? If so I'd go the whole instrumentalist route...

Prince (err... everything)
Freddie Mercury (vocal, guitar, piano)
John Paul Jones (bass & keys)
Dennis Chambers (drums)

But the point is to pick an ultimate four piece. Led Zeppelin have all ready existed so we actually know they are nowhere near the ultimate four piece.
