A list of musicians who died when they were 27.
Being 27 seemed to be a tough time for some on this list.
Some OD'd on drugs, some Suicide, some car crashes.
Why '27' was picked as a year was probably due to the number of Famous Rock artist on the list.
Robert Johnson - Blues Legend (Crossroad)
Alan Wilson - Canned Heat Vocalist
Malcolm Hale - Spanky and Our Gang
Jimi Hendrix - Rock Artist
Janis Joplin - Rock Singer
Jim Morrison - Lead Singer 'The Doors'
Leslie Harvey - Guitarist 'Stone the Crows'
Ron 'Pigpen' McKerman - Founding member of 'The Greatful Dead'
Peter Ham - member of 'Badfinger'
Kurt Cobain - 'Nirvana'
Amy Winehouse - Singer
I'm pretty sure no one on this list woke up and said, 'Gee, I'm 27 and sure would like to join THIS Club...'
