Readers respond: If you could resurrect one dead singer for a farewell tour, who would it be?

Most people have fond memories of seeing their favourite artists live in concert, but there are some musicians who passed too soon before they could be appreciated on stage.

We asked our readers who they would resurrect for one final farewell tour, and the responses were overwhelming.

Here's what they said.

Gina Colbert - Omg could only ever be Elvis, God bless.

Suzanne Stovel - So many to choose from, John Lennon, George Harrison, Freddy Mercury, Gord Downey, Johnny Cash, John Denver, Helen Reddy, Patsy Cline, Whitney Houston, Aretha Franklin. I would go to any one of their concerts. So many great singers have passed.

Therese Mcdonnell - John Lennon. He deserves sometime with his family.

Robyn Burton - Roy Orbison.
