Great musicians that died too young.

To reiterate what most people are saying and what everyone should; HENDRIX! Also -- letting the old man inside me out of his chocolate cage -- the dead Beatles and Elvis

The drowning pool singer Dave Williams!

He sure did let his body hit the floor!
Oh come on!
Poor taste anyone?
I was not aiming for poor taste, just irony. I loved his music styles and the band hasn't been even close since his unfortunate death.

Jimi Hendrix, Janis Joplin, Jim Morrison (the trio at 27)
Buddy Holly, Ritchie Valens, The Big Bopper (Day the music died)
Cliff Burton, Dime-bag Darrell, and Quorthon (because metal kicked more ass while they were alive)
Keith Moon and John Bonham (because everyone knows how awesome they were)
Duane Allman, John Lennon, Stevie Ray Vaughn, Rory Gallagher, and Robert Johnson to round off the list.

For the record, Kurt Cobain should have been aborted so we didn't have to put up with that shit.

You're right about that... the album Sinner was really good but their later stuff, not so much.

Disturbed? Go back and re read the band that you misread! Drowning Pool, NOT Disturbed.

He was vocalist/songwriter in arguably the most important band of the 90's. He contributed a lot to his time's music scene; just like the others you listed did for their times.
But, to each his own...

Not young, so doesn't really count but hey-ho. Just find it sad that Blind Willie Johnson (master of the slide guitar) died of pneumonia alone & poor in the burned out wreck of his house, sleeping on old newspapers.

Townsead's still alive. Your thinking of Keith Moon.

Drummer from Zepplin. His name escapes me at the moment.

John Bonham was the drummer from Led Zep. He was (and possibly still is), in my opinion, the best drummer around...
