Dead Musicians
 
Hey!
I was just wondering, do you think if the many great dead singers, guitarists etc. weren't dead, would they still be as popular today? I mean people such as Freddie Mercury, Jimi Hendrix, Tupac Shakur.

To reverse that question , some have actually gotten MORE famous since their death.

Mhm, I think 2pac definitely has.

Elvis just won't go away :bored:

Eva Cassidy only became famous after her death which is a big shame she had a beautiful voice.

Shaun 02-12-2007 10:47 PM

Oh yeah, she's another one. And she was very good :)

Anyway - I'm sure most dead & famous musicians would sell today...since they sold back then. I don't think the market is all that closed as we think it is.

Jimi Hendrix would have re-invented rock music at least two or three times by now if he'd still been alive. Much like Miles Davis constantly re-invented Jazz.


2Pac and Biggie would have been two of the biggest sellers going.

So much talent has been lost at such an early age.
