I guess it's not really "a bunch" either, but just the first six to came to mind that seemed they would be the most popular answers if this was a Family Feud question.

Jim was moving on to bigger and better things man thats why I picked him. The others made their marks in their time, but Jim never had enough time, to say make a real black and white roadhouse film. Sad.

Yeah, but Hendrix had been on the scene for like 5 years or some shit, just imagine if he had lived longer.

By the way it was a no brainer for me, Hendrix head and shoulders above the rest.

Elvis Presley - 0 0%

Wrong crowd for him, but none the less Morrison got my vote, I'd love to see that man still breathing.

"Fear is the great barrier to human growth." ~ Dr. Robert Monroe

The important thing is not to stop questioning. Curiosity has its own reason for existing. One cannot help but be in awe when he contemplates the mysteries of eternity, of life, of the marvelous structure of reality. It is enough if one tries merely to comprehend a little of this mystery every day. Never lose a holy curiosity. ~ Albert Einstein

Marley and Lennon would be the only two still alive as the others would have done themselves in through all the abuses they put their bodies through, but I can't choose from any of those, sorry :ohwell:

Jimi was on the verge of something really incredible. Each album was becoming more and more complex creatively, his songwriting was improving, and he was finally figuring our how to use his voice to its advantage.

He was nowhere close to being a burned out junkie, his death by sleeping pills was partially due to overworking himself.

Only John Lennon out of those guys...

I would worry that Jimi Hendrix's music would've gotten incredibly lame in the 80s. The others had run their course IMHO

True, but I challenge you to name one rock musician who came of age in the 60s whose music didn't get incredibly lame in the 80s.
