This is my first post here and I'm looking forward to getting to know music lovers. I especially love 60's rock, R&B and blues. I also like politics and animals.
Hi everyone!  |
Kelf was playing his electric guitar in the bathtub.
Palmer died from a heart attack on
Oct. 1st, 2004.
Off the top of my head....
One week before his
32nd birthday,
Terry Kath shot himself while most likely playing
Russian Roulette. The official version is he accidentaly shot himself, when he picked up a gun he thought was unloaded, put it to his head and pulled the trigger.
Stevie Ray Vaughan died on what was meant to be
Eric Clapton's helicopter.
Clapton let him take the final seat.
August 27th was the
16th anniversary.
Randy Rhoades - He and the band's hairdresser went up in a plane with the tour bus driver, when the driver/pilot decided to buzz the tour bus. The tour bus had the rest of
Ozzy's band in it. They buzzed the bus 4 times, which was one time too many. On the 4th attempt, one of the wings hit the bus and they crashed into a house nearby. All three of them died in the crash. The driver/pilot was flying with an expired license and was one with
cocaine, at the time.
Duane Allman and
Berry Oakley both died in motorcylce accidents a little less than 13 months apart.
Leslie Harvey - electrocuted on stage in
Wales.
Tommy Tucker- was finishing the floors in his home, but it was ventilated properly. He died from
carbon tetrachloride poisoning.
Razzle Dingley died in a car accident.
Vince Neil was the one driving the car, at the time.
Vince wasn't exactly sober and wasn't one with the speed limit, either. The person in the car
Vince hit, ended up with brain damage and paralyzed.
Vince was barely scratched.
Jackie Wilson - officially....he had a stroke while in the middle of singing
Lonely Teardrops during a
Dick Clark performance, and was in a coma for 8 years before he died. But rumors have always surrouned the cause and fortunate timing for his manager Nat Tarnopol.
The day after the performance, he was scheduled to be interviewed by
U.S. Attorneys who had been investigating his manager. Without
Jackie ever being able to testify, it made it possible for Tarnopol to be acquitted a year later of
38 of the 39 counts against him. Eventualy that one was overturned by the
Court of Appeals.
Tarnopol had been ripping off
Wilson and other artists for years. For example,
Tarnopol's son is listed as one of the authors of
Wilson's song
Doggin' Around. Now.....what makes this a miracle is that his son wasn't born when the song was written.
It's also now believed,
Jackie collapsed than had the heart attack causing the stroke.
Bryn Jones aka
Muslimgauze - officially it was listed as a blood infection caused by the the mycosis fungus. A great many of his fans believe he was murdered by
Mossad.
Peter Tosh was murderd along with 6 others by an old friend. The friend had gotten into an argument with
Tosh's girlfriend earlier in the day, and returned with some of his friends. They were all armed, and "claimed" they were planning to just scare them but things got out of hand....
It was
Sept. 11th, 1987.
