As tragic as John Lennon's and Elvis Presley's deaths were they had had long careers in which to contribution to the musical expasion of my mind.
The deaths of folks like Kurt Cobain , Eva Cassidy, Janis Joplin, Jimi Hendrix, Buddy Holly, Shawn Lane, Chuck Shuldiner, Stevie Ray Vaughan, Eddie Cochran,
Bobby Fuller, Duane Allman, Frankie Lymon, 2Pac, Otis Redding, Nick Drake, Gram Parsons, Robert Johnson, Jim Morrison, Jay Reatard, ect, ect, ect..... while probably not meeting the "the biggest music death" criteria, have deprived the world of great lyrics, turn of a pharse on a cover song, wonderful guitars riffs and great drum solos, not to mention voices that make you cry and laugh.
