Even when King Crimson ITCOTKC era, Genesis Gabriel era, Caravan and Gentle Giant sounds great, my choice is Soft Machine:
Kevin Ayers / bass, vocals Brian Hopper/ sax Hugh Hopper / bass Mike Ratledge / keyboards Robert Wyatt / drums
It will be a delight for any ear...
Why GONG Radio Gnome era is not included??? That it will be great too...

Gentle Giant.
I would love to see them play live even though I wouldn't class myself as a big fan.It would just be so much fun watching them!

Floyd would be cool, but not as cool as Gabriel-led Genesis. Of course, I voted for Emerson Lake 'n Palmer, just because they needed the help. And that would be pretty sweet.

I voted for ELP - not necessarily wanting them to reform permanently, but to at least get together and produce one more album.
Not an album along the lines of their later, more commercial-sounding efforts, though. I would like to see ELP produce an instrumental concept album based on a very specific theme, for example a novel full of pathos such as Silas Marner, Tess of the d'Urbervilles, The Yearling, etc. I would like to see the three really study the chosen book and write emotive, progressive music tied closely to the story, making sure they keep away from commercial-sounding pop-rock or attempts to emulate (or imitate, for that matter) classical music.
I would also like to see them produce joint compositions, not individual compositions. OK, each one might come up with a basic theme, but I'd like to see a joint effort on honing each track -- if indeed the album were to be split into tracks, as I think it could be seemless, with the different 'chapters' segueing into each other.
I reckon that they could come up with something interesting.

You dissapointed us all, Whistler. I expected that you will suggest reunion of Tull with: 1) Ian, 2) his hair & beard, 3) old tramp's boots & dirty cloak, 4) old lineup. Well, if you don't, I will.

From this list I'd vote for Genesis. But my greatest wish of all time must be seeing Ark getting back together in. Too bad it propably won't ever happen
