Steve's Dead Rock Stars

This page is my memorial to the many great musicians who have blessed us with their gift.
Sadly, many left the party early.
Fortunately, the music lives on!

I am always open for suggestions; use the link on the contact page if you'd like to send an e-mail.

I don't have the resources to include a memorial for every lost artist, but I do try to include as many as possible. Not everyone on the list is necessarily a rock star. People who've made significant contributions to popular music, including pioneers, songwriters, concert promoters, and others are also included.

If you see a factual error or a broken link, please let me know. While I try my best to check details, on occassion something may slip through. Information here is based on wire reports, recordings, artist's web pages, interviews and personal recollections. Where possible, the biographies are accompanied by an original photograph.
