Gee thanks for calling me a young lady I haven't been called that in 20 years. I happen to be 43. Obviously you've never listened to Nirvana. Before you make such a blanket statement about Kurt selling the youth misery and despair I suggest you read the lyrics. All you see is heroin addict. There's way more to Kurt than that.
Gee! I must be the only person on the planet who never listened to Smells Like Teen Spirit!!!!!!!
With respect to everyone's choices, I would pick Stevie Ray Vaughan. His death was one of those "folklore" things. He had freed himself of his prior weaknesses and was a wonderful person, as well as, IMO, as good as any who ever played.
This is not intended as a challenge to anyone else's preferences - I hate that! It's just how I feel.
A lot of great musicians have been named, but if I had the power to bring one back, I would not bring one back who took their own life or was otherwise responsible for their own death, like an OD or wrecklessness. (Cobain, Hendrix, Joplin,...)
I would also not bring one back that had peaked or passed their prime. (Lennon, Gaye,...)
Some musicians fit both of those catagories, (Elvis, MJ,...)
Leaving the younger upcoming talents who died innocently and could have given us much more than they had a chance to. (Holly, Valens, Selena, Rhoads,...)

Oh! You are so right young lady! Every generation should idolize at least 1 heroin addict who had nothing good to say while he he was getting rich selling the youth misery and despair!
Dude. You're bumming us out...Dude...Where's my car?
