If you could bring back one great artist that has

Lowell George.

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.
