If the human race gets into Human Cloning,just think we could have a replica of our favourite long gone artist. Who would be your first choice. Tacky I know but this is just for fun I have allowed multiple votes for a highly accurate outcome Just out of my head as usual (probaly missed a few)------------- Matt |

Lennon. Not just for his music, but because his life was shortened by someone else. ------------- What? |

Sinatra. The world could use some of that old school attitude again.

This really broke down to my top two artists: Johnny Cash vs. Frank Zappa
While I love both I enjoyed what Johnny was doing towards the end of his life moreso than what Frank was up to but, I would dearly love to hear Frank's take on modern music
There are truely a few names here that I'd hate to see come back but I'll be polite and not name names
 Why no Beethoven? I see Mozart up there but where's Beethoven? I'd bring him back before Amadeus. -------------  Time always wins. |

This is a really tough decision. There are loads of artist that I wish could still be alive, but I also think there are some who fulfilled their calling (like Jimi Hendrix for example) and changed the way we view things forever. I guess I would choose someone who we lost tragically at the pinnacle of their career or was taken away from us too soon. Considering that, I think I'm going with the 27 club. Jimi Hendrix, Janis Joplin and Jim Morrison. I'll add John Lennon too, because I wonder what he'd be doing musically today. |

I'm with the prematurely lost Lennon and have to contribute a variation on a sick joke. What would John Lennon be doing if he were alive today? Clawing at the inside of his coffin. So please, before you bring any of these back, be sure to dig them up first, if you can.  ------------- Released date are often when it it impacted you but recorded dates are when it really happened...

Hendrix. I don't think he was finished musically which many of the others were. ------------- Help me I'm falling! |

That reminds me of the short story "The Monkey's Paw". I also would have Lennon back from that list, but I would be more interested in Syd Barrett. |

I'd say J.S. Bach, but considering he's not on here I'll go with Bob Marley. I'm going through a massive reggae phase at the moment and he's like God to me.

probably mozart. he died so young for his talent and near the end of his life he was writing his best material (early stuff is a little too fru fru classical for me a la hadyn) but didnt have time to finish some of it. also hendrix for the above reasons already posted. he wasnt done with his "journey" if you will. ------------- http://www.last.fm/user/KeiserWillhelm" rel="nofollow - What im listening to |

I'd vote for Tu-Pac but since he's still alive I'll have to go with Lennon.
