So I am wondering if you all had 3 wishes from the genie.. Three "bringing back bands/people/artists from the dead or their hiatus" or what have you, what would you all pick? Automatically, Nirvana comes to mind for me, seems like one of the more obvious ones. I can think of a lot of ones, but I don't want to take away from anyone else's answers, like I may have already done, haha. Edit: Forgot to say, you are allowed to bring people who have passed away, back from the dead, like I did with Nirvana. Forgot to say that. Well obviously it won't happen, but in your answer you can, haha. Image from Pixabay.

I am not familiar with too many of these people. I have HEARD of most of them, I just have not listened to too many of these groups/bands. I will have to listen to them. Either way, thanks for the response, much appreciated! :)

I have to agree with you for sure on Nirvana. Putting that aside my three choices would be Lynyrd Skynyrd; one of the best Southern rock bands, Jimi Hendrix; the best guitar player ever and Bon Scott from AC/DC; who just doesn't sound the same without him.

It would have been very interesting to see what Nirvana would have done if Kurt Cobain had lived on, eh!? Nice choices, all good bands. I remember playing a cover of "Sweet Home Alabama" with a band I used to be in with, I played drums, haha :) Anyways, good points made!

I sure would. I love the music from way back, 20's and on up so I would bring back lots of them. Elvis and Frank Sinatra, Bing Crosby, Michael Jackson and so many from the 50's on up. I love all music.

Good choices. Ella Fitzgerald would be good too. But she did have a long illustrious career, at least.

Very good. I am not overly familiar with that type of music, but I do still recognize the names you mentioned! It's always nice to love all music, to have an open mind, or shall I say an "open ear" if that makes any sense at all, when it comes to music! :) Thanks for your response.
