Really depends on the style of Jazz

For old school

Bean/Pres-Tenor

Satchmo-Trumpet

Art Tatum-Piano

Blanton-Bass

Sonny Greer-Drums

Can't choose between Bean and Pres. I like them equally.

For the more straight ahead

Coltrane-Tenor

Miles-Trumpet

Monk-Piano

Mingus-Bass

Roach-Drums

If you replace Alto For Tenor than Bird

For the more out

Coltrane-Tenor

Woody Shaw-Trumpet

Ed Blackwell-Drums

Charlie Haden-Bass

Piano-Andrew Hill

If you replace Alto For Tenor than Dolphy

For the free

Evan Parker-Tenor or Alto

Joe McPhee-Trumpet

Hamid Drake-Drums

Paul Rogers-Bass

Cecil Taylor-Piano

Not a starting five, but an interesting quintet maybe...

Walt Dickerson .:. vibraphone

Sun Ra .:. piano, electronic keyboards

Andrew Hill .:. piano

Jimmy Garrison .:. bass

Richard Davis .:. bass

Gilmore would be there too, but he wouldn't be unlisted. He would be playing percussion and the occassional reed.
