If you could bring one dead musician back for one album and one album only, who would it be?
>Layne Staley
Obviously GG Allin. I want to know what he'd be like after getting resurrected from the dead.
>>65832660
GG Allin was fucking nuts, that's what was so great about him.
Nujabes desu.
Elliott Smith. From a Basement on the Hill would have been much better if he was able to complete it. A new album entirely would also be great.
Amy Winehouse
I really liked her music.
Austin Peralta
Paul Walker.
>>65832699
Dubs justifies.
>>65832772
best choice
Tim Buckley / Jeff Buckley
>>65832981
arguably Jeff more so than Tim, since Tim had been going through a rough period musically when he died.
Ian Curtis. Closer was incredible, but I really want to hear how another Joy Division album would have sounded had Ian Curtis expressed himself musically and not just killed himself.
>>65832683
This as well.
One of these:
Syd Barrett
David Bowie
John Lennon
Freddie Mercury
Miles Davis
John Coltrane
Buddy Holly
Jeff Buckley
Tim Buckley
Lou Reed
George Harrison
Elvis Presley
Frank Zappa
Ian Curtis
Kurt Cobain
Jimi Hendrix
Jim Morrison
Bob Marley
Nico
Frank Sinatra
James Browm
and etc. I'll go with either Brian Wilson or Bob Dylan.
>>65833051
Yeah, if Tim started from where he left off with Starsailor he would be a good choice.
MC Ride
Jerry Garcia
Not for the Dead, but do another album for his acoustic band
dimebag darrell
he would single handly revive rock
I'm hardly hesitating between Chuck Schuldiner and Paco De Lucia
No Janis Joplin?
come on /mu/
I wish Trish Keenan were still alive.

these
poor poor layne
the guy was was about 80 pounds when he died....6'1"
John Frusciante
cliff burton 4lyf
this beautiful man
ITT: not a single composer.
>Bach? Who? Naaaah, definitely Dimebag Darrell
>>65834757
Look where you are, you stupid faggot. A bunch of teenagers and early 20's lowlifes are hardly capable of holding opinions about classical music.
Antonio Vivaldi > everything in this thread
J Dilla
>>65835060
Lol. Yeah, I enjoy it much more than stuffy classical forums though.
>>65835082
Of all the composers... you choose Vivaldi
>>65832623
John Bonham, Cliff Burton or Jimi Hendrix
>>65834757
yeah dude a new Bach album would be sick definitely AOTY
>>65832623
Can't I resurrect a band instead?
Because Freddie Mercury on vocals and keyboards, with Ronnie James Dio. Dimebag and Hendrix on guitar, Lemmy and Cliff Burton on bass, and Keith Moon on drums because he's the only good dead drummer I can think of.
>>65834757
The title says 'musician' and not 'composer'.
>>65835239
Just imagine if Bach got together with Aphex Twin, and they collaborated on an album that was composed by Bach and transcribed by Aphex.
>>65835282
>the title says musician and not composer
Baaaaahahahahahahahahahahhaaaaaa!
>>65835170
I love Vivaldi. I've combed through the baroque people, and while I am fond of JS Bach, Corelli, and Gabrieli, Vivaldi is the one I keep going back to.
If that's your reaction, then I'm positive you only know the first movement of Four Seasons
>>65835282
>Because Freddie Mercury on vocals and keyboards, with Ronnie James Dio. Dimebag and Hendrix on guitar, Lemmy and Cliff Burton on bass, and Keith Moon
is this bait, because you sound like the typical «i was born in the wrong generation» kind of douche.
>>65834754
/mu/ will be in a frenzy when he dies desu
SRV
Staley would be a close 2nd though
>>65835348
>positive
Ok. Vivaldi's oeuvre is unequivocally inferior to Bach's. Go fuck yourself.
:(
>>65834365
I think you're overestimating his capabilities.
Can I resurrect Gesualdo?
I really want to see what would happen if Jim Morrison was resurrected at the age he died (27) and brought to 2016 Los Angeles.
90's Rivers Cuomo
2pac
>>65835623
What would happen? Probably a heroin overdose.
Even before his death he started taking his music in drastically different ways. It would have been awesome to hear the stuff he would have been putting out.
>>65835301
That would be amazing
>>65833084
Replace Bernard's voice in Movement and it's basically what you want. I don't think Ian would've changed a lot of the musical content in that album, maybe the lyrics would go another way but where to? No way he would make out alive of recording Movement if he kept that dark path he entered in Closer.
>>65835584
I'll take that as confirmation of what I accuse you of. Keep sucking cocks, bitch
Marvin Gaye
>>65835817
>keep suckling cocks
I will
>>65835678
>dead
only true answer desu
>>65835896
glad to hear it, it seems to be your calling in life.
Fred Drake, please come back and make the GOAT Desert Sessions album.
>>65833265
Fuck you
Elliott Smith or Jeff Buckley. Maybe Buckley more so since he only had one go at an album.
Marvin Gayne nigga
>>65834365
This, just because I've always been interested in what he would have produced after In Utero.
