If you could bring back one great artist that has


departed our world who would it be? We have lost some incredibly talented artists, often under tragic circumstances. If it were possible to have an encore I would vote for Janis Joplin. You?

HEy look, can't speak for Satan, only mapman. I'd be pleased as....well most anything but hell I suppose.
I was very upset knowing that I won't hear Michael Brecker live again. I tried (and many more did) to bring him back when was submitting my bone marrow sample to cure his MSD when he was in Sloan Kettering
If Bach came back, he'd probably hang with Keith Emerson.

But my main vote goes to Jeff Buckley because he died way too good, too soon.
I think that Paul Robeson would be a good choice. I suspect that he would be much more "at home," and therefore less radicalized, in today's society than in the society of his time, and politics and controversy would therefore not overshadow his immense singing (and many other) talents.

I have some of his recordings, and his voice was truly special.
