Yeah, that was very sad. I loved her voice.
Are you sure Keith Richards is still alive? I know he claims he is but I don't know if I'm convinced.

Rory Gallagher - the only public figure who's death has genuinely saddened me as if it were the personal loss of a friend. All the more odd because I never saw him live. It's just that his music reached me.
John Martyn - a close second.

You are right. He died of lung cancer. I stand corrected. I was wondering when some one would notice
.No one's mentioned the greatest musician Wolfgang Amadeus Mozart who died just 35 years young who has got to be up there with Michael Jackson in more ways than one

His death was premature even in the 18th century especially as he didn't have a particularly hard life physically.

Got to be a bit careful interpreting these average life expectancy figures. If they refer to life expectancy at birth they will be heavily skewed by the awful rate of infant mortality. For those surviving to adulthood the life expectancy would be much higher. People did frequently reach what we'd consider old age, even then.

Jake Thackray. Alright, he was 60, but still died too early in my opinion.
