    Here's a few great trios to kick this along.

    Rush
    The Jam
    Spoon

    Without Ringo? He had to be there, who else was going to talk to the bass player...

    There's this new Trio from the UK - heard them on myspace. They are called The Brew and sound bloody fantastic. Sort of a mix of Pink Floyd, Hendrix and Jimmy Page. Definitely worth keeping an eye out for.
