I think Cliff would just throw up if he came back to life and saw what Metallica became after he died. I don't think he'd work with them. Which is not to say if he'd lived he might not have degraded along with them, but he Cliff that died in the '80s wouldn't even recognize Hetfield and Ulrich today.
That said, yeah, Cliff and D. Boon and also John Lennon all seem like good choices since they died with cred in tact and from things that amounted to robbery of their lives.
You have to wonder though, if Lennon had lived would he have agreed to a dismal Beatles reunion at some point, doing a tour that featured weak "Real Love" type new songs plus "Imagine" and "Band on the Run" perhaps with some lame alternarock sidemen from Radiohead or Oasis helping carry them through the old songs?
