Choose only from list. If the answer is none, just say none. If you choose Amy Winehouse, I am concerned for your mental health.

Hard choice, but I choose Bob Marley

Easy for me--John Lennon, preferably with the Beatles.

#1 - The Doors with Jim Morrison
#2 - John Lennon with the Beatles
#3 - Elvis Presley
#4 - Queen with Freddie Mercury
#5 - Jimi Herdrix
#6 - Johnny Cash
#7 - Michael Jackson

Others not listed, Uriah Heep with the late vocalist David Byron, Atlanta Rhythm Section with the late Ronnie Hammond, Molly Hatchet with the late Danny Joe Brown. I've actually seen these three, but would love to see them again. Also living acts Journey with vocalist Steve Perry and keyboardist Greg Rolie and Foreigner with vocalist Lou Graham performing before his medical issues. I've seen both of these as well. Deceased acts I've never seen would be Lynyrd Skynyrd with late vocalist Ronnie Van Zant, Robin Trower with late vocalist James Dewar and Thin Lizzy with late vocalist Phil Lynott.

Living acts I've never seen but would love to see, are Tears for Fears, Rush and Kings of Leon.

Amy Winehouse is a fantastic jazz singer - I agree her "pop" music leaves some wanting.. but give a listen to her jazz.

Really can't choose. I've been fortunate to see many of them -- Janis, Jimmie, Queen, Morrison, The Beatles, Otis, Jackson, The Who, The Doors. Yes, even Amy Winehouse. Guess I would have to pick Tupac mainly because I've never seen a live rap concert and honestly like the music. Beethoven certainly would be interesting.

This is probably the only place where someone could be seeing Beethoven a second time.

Reread. You are not seeing them again, they are performing again.

When I read the title question I had an answer right away. I was just thinking about that the other day.

Paul Simon

He wasn't on the list. But I was looking for someone I saw perform once before who would still sound the same. Then I realized they were all dead.

I think I would like to see Beethoven in a Back to the Future sort of way.

ooops,,,I got that wrong too. I should have said I would like to see Beethoven in a Bill & Ted's Excellent Adventure sort of way. At work I would get "in conversation support" from the younger teachers. Thank goodness for Google.

I guess I should have said "was" a good jazz singer, but isn't Elvis, John Lennon, etc, etc.. also deceased???? I don't understand your comment

I would like to hear the duet she did with Tony Bennett before she passed.

All fine choices. I am surprised that no one has asked, "Who is that dude on the far right second row"?

Kurt is top row blonde. Not guy from Nirvana, not Keith Moon. One of the Ramones (Tommy)?

I saw ELVIS when I was in 9th grade, and I have seen so many performers over the years None could even come close to the excitement in the air in that arena. He was beyond fabulous!
He gets my vote!!

Cliff Burton, Metallica.

Now I'm starting to feel bad for Freddie Mercury! Perhaps we're not exactly his demographic.

If I could choose off the list, I would love to see Little Richard live, the '50s version.

Of this bunch...
1. Freddy Mercury
2. Elvis
3. Ray Charles
4. Johnny Cash

Now... if Roy Orbison was on this list he'd easily be #1.

krash

Yes, if Roy Orbison was on the list, it would definitely be him.

You know who's not dead yet?
Delbert Mcclinton.
Anybody know who he is?
I never understood why he never found the fame. He's fantastic.... listen to his music all the time.
