There's a select group of musicians whose albums sales
linger in the millions.
They have influenced many of the musical styles
associated with various new bands. Their trend-shattering
behavior and dress are the heart of some of today's hippest
styles. Along with their music, the personal beliefs,
feelings and opinions of these artists are ever present. The
only advantage that today's musicans have over these
legendary performers is the fact they're living. Here is a
list of music's most celebrated dead rockers:
Janis Joplin ? Born and ostracized in Texas, Joplin
set out to rise above her tormenters and ironically, she did
it by singing the blues like no other white woman had
done before. For four years, Joplin was the most progressive.

"Ball and Chain." But a love for a stiff drink, a late night
and a nice man left Joplin dead at 27 ? an accidental
heroin overdose.
Jim Morrison ? The nucleus of the Doors was
known for his stage extravagance and strong, bizarre
lyricism. While recording, Morrison was often at odds
with concert organizers and local authorities, because of
allegations of obscenties and indecent exposure ? most
notably, the night he displayed his penis in Miami. The
Doors had many succesful songs including "Touch Me,"
"The End" and "Light My Fire." Morrison died at 28 ?
accidental herion overdose.
Jimi Hendrix ? One of rock's most respected and
copied guitarists was born in Texas and made his mark in
rock music with songs like "Hey Joe," "Purple Haze"
and "All Along the Watchtower" ? a song Hendrix borrowed
from Bob Dylan and made his own. Hendrix dared

to experiment, creating a musical style that's everpresent
in current music. Hendrix died at 28 ? "inhalation of
vomit following barbiturate intoxication."
John Lennon ? a fourth of the Beatles ? was also
recognized for taking chances with experimentation and
in doing so, developing some of rock's most respected and
praised songs. With the Beatles, Lennon co-wrote wrote
classics such as "Helter Skelter," "Revolution" and "I
Am The Walrus." Lennon, after completing a solo
album, was shot by a deranged fan, Mark David Chapman.
Lennon was 40.
Of course, there are many other dead rockers worth bringing
up, such as Elvis Presley, Sid Vicious, Keith Moon
and Mama Cass. The likes of these ? and Joplin, Morrison,
Hendrix and Lennon ? will continue to inspire and
influence. These select few will live in spirit and vinyl ?
but not in flesh.
