I'm going to agree with Steven too, but note that the original question might be more comparable to a question on a guitar forum about what strings Carlos Santana might use. No, the strings won't make your playing sound like Santana's, no more than the film/developer combination will make your prints look like Caponigro's.
But it's still a valid question. With so many possible combinations, it gets a newer photographer into materials appropriate to the look he wants, eliminating that big question mark so he can concentrate on other things. And for some, there's an appreciation to knowing you're working with the same materials as a master whose work you admire.
