Default Ye left us too soon... - 06-12-2003, 10:24 AM

I'm going to see Ozzy for the first time tonight and I'm SO stoked! I got to thinking while driving to work today, "What was it like to see Randy Rhoads play?"

So, I figured I'd poll the group regarding guitar players who were taken from us too soon.

Who's the greatest of the deceased axe-slingers who met an untimely demise?

I'd have to say Steive Ray Vaughn. allways had a soft spot for Blues based rock.

One that you forgot was Duane Allman (Allaman Brothers, Derek and the Dominos.)

Yeah, there were a lot of names I coulda put up there (Buddy Holly, Glen Buxton from Alice Cooper)..hence the Other option.

15 huh? Hrm, I thought everyone had heard of Jimi Hendrix. Ah well...no biggie, I s'pose.

Vote "Other" for Zappa.

Again, I couldn't add every dead guitar player to the list.

Chuck Berry's not dead yet. Is he?

Plus, this is for guitar players who were killed in their prime...not for old bastards who have been around for 50 years.
