What if Stephen Stills, Jimi Hendrix and Peter Tork had started that band?
They were all good friends, and always talked about starting a band together.

Imagine if that happened?

Stephen's Folk Rock meets Jimi's Psychadelic Rock with Tork's classical piano (his background)

2. Jimi might have lived
of course CSNY might not have existed, but knowing Young's and Still's friendship at the time, Young would be recruited into said supergroup.

4. I also wonder what would've happened had Jimi joined Emerson, Lake & Palmer.
He was going to after the Isle of Wight concert, but his death put a stop to that plan.

The music of Hendrix, Emerson, Lake & Palmer (HELP) would have been very interesting, I think.

5. Oh yeah I heard that

That would have been amazing, because all four were going for the same kind of staccato effect on their music.
