WOW! There's a lot of bands who can't get together because someone has died - but if coming back from the dead was an option, I'd choose Velvet Underground, Bowie's best lineup with Mick Ronson on guitar, and Joy Division.
Having just seen just how good a band can be after reuniting (Bauhaus) I am all about seeing great bands live. However, I'm not sure they would be successful recording again. So many bands of my youth are still together plugging away at uninspired music - The Cure and Siouxsie and the Banshees are two bands that comes to mind.
Of the "living" bands, I'd give a body part to see the Talking Heads live again. They played one of the BEST shows I ever saw - and that's saying something. I'd also love to see a good old fashioned X show again, although seeing The Knitters again recently was pretty damn close.
