If You Could Bring One Legend Back Who Would It Be?

If you could bring one deceased musician back, who would it be?

I'll go with Jimi. I think rock/pop music would be much heavier. In sound wise.

It seems like everyone these days wants to be a guitarist, imagine if Jimi was here. The whole world would want to play guitar.

You can take a black guy to Nashville from right out of the cotton fields with bib overalls, and they will call him R&B. You can take a white guy in a pin-stripe suit who’s never seen a cotton field, and they will call him country. ~ O. B. McClinton

If he was still alive do you know how many people would be complaining about his new work? He'd be off somewhere and no one would have heard from him again.

It's still so sad that they never got a chance to collaborate.


Anyway all I can say is:

Marvin Marvin Marvin. pray


Of course I'd bring Michael back too.

I think he would've been in the same boat as Eric Clapton. People still love Eric.

Jimi is the greatest guitarist ever according to the world, so I doubt people would've forgot about him.

No question. If Kurt was still around I would think Mainstream rock wouldn't be in such a sorry state.

Jackie Wilson.

I would love to see him perform in his hey-day. His television performances were good, so I KNOW his concerts would have been stellar. Especially the dancing.

David Bowie is retired for good as far as I know. He and Iman got a twelve year old daughter to raise.

Mike, simply.

And, not dead, but I would bring back Phil Collins who just retired officially... I'll miss his music, a lot.

I'd also like to see Barry White and Jackie Wilson in concert.

***I'd also bring back REMY SHAND from the I don't know where he disapeared!!!!***

If you can't be nice to someone on the net, you probably ain't worth much talking to in real life either.

I know many don't consider her a legend and that's fine, but I would bring back Aaliyah because her potential to become a legend was enormous and I just hate the way she was taken so soon.
