What rocker would you bring back from the dead?

I'd pick Steve Clark. It would have been awesome to see one more "old-school" Def Leppard album.

Does it have to be famous?

I'd like my previous drummer back. Dave was a good guy!

DimeBag

Darrell Abbot, Jimi Hendrix, Jim Morrison, and Layne Staley. I'm sure I can name others, but you have to forgive my memory as it usually acts like it was steamrolled to begin with without adding that I'm lacking some sleep

two more that have not been previously mentioned:
Phil Lynott
Jeff Wallack

Burton, Dime, Jimi, 'Trane, Duane, Randy: I'm certain all of them left us before they really had a chance to hit their creative peaks. The brightest flames burn quickest.

SRV: I don't know if he had hit his creative peak or not, but he would have continued to burn brightly for awhile.

P.S. If we're going to bring Duane back, we have to bring Berry Oakley along with him. It's the right thing to do.

OMG, yes! I must be slipping. I can't believe I forgot them (it's been a loooong day so far). Right on, brother! While we're at that, can we check to make sure Robbo's actually still alive?
