After watching the Herzog film Heart of Glass, apparently. I can't figure that out. There are far more depressing movies than that... and better movies to go out on.Phillosophic said:Ian Curtis of Joy Division, killed himself not far from where I am living at the moment. A lot of bands from the past 20 years have been influenced by his music.

Shit! Didn't realise Mitch Mitchell had died. He was an awesome drummer, really complimented Jimi's playing. Noel Redding seemed like an arse, always seemed jealous/pissed off.Snieeke said:Jimi hendrix. By the way Mitch Mitchell the drummer of the Experience just passed away. Noel Redding passed away back in 03-04, so now the whole hendrix experience is dead. For me its kind of sad since they are the ones who made me pick up a guitar
Dimebag Darrel, he was an amazing guitarplayer.
Layne Staley from Alice in Chains
2pac
Ian Curtis from Joy Division
And to go the old granny way, Id have to say Chopin. Play Eternal sonata XD
Popular opinion /= to musical quality, IMO. Someone else mentioned it went 16 posts before Cobain was mentioned, that's because the thread title said "great musicians". Sorry, but I really don't think Cobain makes the grade on that.cleverlymadeup said:no disturbed sucked, they are one of the things that are wrong with the numetal pushsirdanrhodes said:The drowning pool singer Dave Williams!
He sure did let his body hit the floor!
no they were actually good, heck smells like teen spirit is still voted in the top 10 of best songs ever, it's probly the number 1 song of the 90sMilkatron said:For the record, Kurt Cobain should have been aborted so we didn't have to put up with that shit.
Yay! Someone else showing some Blind Melon love. What's your opinion on the new album by the way?Riicek said:Popular opinion /= to musical quality, IMO.

Of course music is all opinion anyway, and, all that said, I like Nirvana.
Gotta throw my love in for Shannon Hoon though, if we're gonna be talking vocalists as well. Would have loved to see what that band would have done with some more time.
I actually like the new album. They certainly can never be what they were with Shannon Hoon, but I thought that with Travis Warren they've been able to maintain what the band was, without making it seem like he's just trying to imitate Hoon.Phillosophic said:Yay!

Finally, another Nick Drake fan. I second this, as well as Jimi Hendrix and Buddy Holly. I really, really wish Johnny Cash was still around, though. I know he didn't die young by any means, but it's sad to know he's gone. Not to mention it makes me realize how old Bob Dylan is getting... *weeps*Jaccident said:Nick Drake, this fantastic 60s song writer.
Well you need to LURK MOAR.ThaBenMan said:I don't even know who half of these people being mentioned are... :/
