Friday Night is Dead Before Their Time Music Night

[Noodley]

Well, I wasnae gonna have a thread just for Michael Jackson was I?

So tonight we'll have music from people who died 'before their time' - feel free to interpret this as loosely as you want but I'd say it would preferably be limited to those still producing good music at time of death.

I'll start with the legend that is Bon Scott: Dirty Deeds Done Dirt Cheap

[Gerry Attrick]

I'll nominate Eva Cassidy. Very versatile singer with original interpretations. Gorgeous voice.

 

[MichaelM]

Buddy Holly

 

[MichaelM]

Stevie Ray Vaughan

Eddie Cochran

Though Gerry's nomination was pretty good.
