Then you know they got a hell of a band. Bill Medley and Bobby Hatfield, The Righteous Brothers. Bill Medley is still with us but sadly Bobby died November 5, 2003 from a cocaine induced heart attack. This thread is a place to remember artists who left us far too soon.

If Heaven has its own band (and let's face it, it does), I think it'll look like this:

Lead vocalist #1: Freddie Mercury
Lead Vocalist #2: Michael Jackson

Bass guitar #1 (solid, expressive funk rhythms): James Jamerson
Bass guitar #2: (improvised melodic lines): John Entwistle

Drums: Keith Moon and Bonzo. Together. On one drum kit.

Lead Guitar: Dimebag Darrell and Jimi Hendrix.

I'm sure there are others whose place is guaranteed 🙂
 
You know, I keep forgetting how much I like these guys.
 
Janis Joplin. What a sad, troubled life she had. Janis was only 27 when she died October 4, 1970 from a heroin overdose.

Ronnie Van Zant was 29 when he died. On October 20, 1977 a Convair CV-300 airplane carrying the Lynyrd Skynyrd Band crashed near Gillsburg Mississippi. Band members Van Zant and Steve and Cassie Gaines died. Also killed was assistant road manager Dean Kilpatrick, pilot Walter McCreary and co-pilot William Gray.

A few days later Ronnie was laid to rest in Orange Park Florida. On June 29 2000, some ghouls broke into his tomb, carried the casket outside and dropped it on the ground. He was moved to a more secure location in Jacksonville and rests there today.

Hey! How do you guys get the pictures and videos to show up? I can't seem to do that so I just use the links.

Rock 'n' Roll is in the thread title, but this is a place to remember any musician - singer who left us too soon.

Here's how to embed Youtube videos. Look under the video and click 'share' then click 'embed'. Be sure you check the 'use old embed code' option, (the new code won't work on the forum,) then just copy the code and paste it into your post. Nothing to it. 🙂

I saw no "use old embed code" option.....

Oh well!
