brit guitar heroes

In creating a brit guitar supergroup for one recording session, I'm imagining Page, Clapton and Beck on guitars, Winwood on keyboards, but for the life of me, I can't think of who would be the best (LIVING!!) drummer and bass player for the group......your suggestions?

Bass either Tony Levin or Jeff Berlin.
Drummer Bill Brufford or Mike Portnoy...
Keyboards I'd suggest Brian Eno.

Given your desire for a brit guitar supergroup then the best living drummer for this job is clearly Steve Ferrone.

1) He is a brit
2) He plays all genre's adeptly adding to music rather than dominating it (as a great drummer should).
3) Currently part of Tom Petty and the Heartbreakers and living in LA
4) He opened for the WHO at age 12
5) Clapton unplugged...Eric chose Steve for his drumming

If you are suprised or have not heard of him then look him up on drummer's world. He has been employed by many of the best as a session drummer.
