The Best (band)
The Best was a short-lived English–American supergroup originally formed in London in 1990, featuring Keith Emerson on keyboards, John Entwistle on bass and vocals, Joe Walsh on guitar and vocals, Jeff "Skunk" Baxter on guitar, and Simon Phillips on drums. Relative unknown Rick Livingstone sang lead vocals. Backing vocals were provided by Hamish, Angus and Fergus Richardson of the band Brother.
In a 1994 interview posted on The Who mailing list, Entwistle said that The Best had toured Japan, and that an American tour had been planned but never came to fruition. In the same interview he also noted that drummer Zak Starkey had also been "in the band a while", presumably before Phillips joined.
In 2010, a DVD of the band's 26 September 1990 performance in Yokohama, Japan was released.
