Natural causes didn't kill Morrison. That would be the acid, alcohol, blow, speedballing, and eventually the heroine overdose.

Jim Croce would have been another James Taylor, imo.

Amen.

Could have been the best in that genre. Crazy to think he wasn't even 30 years old and that Sitting on the Dock of the Bay was released posthumously

Yeah because none of the other people mentioned in this thread had drug or alcohol problems.

Forgot about Otis. He sounded 45 at 27. Wonder if his voice would have held up?

Had he lived he'd have gotten some of my $$$$ at a farewell concert or a casino show somewhere. He embodied what every white singer who sang or just dabbled in blues/soul wishes they could sound like.

Cobain wasn't going to give us anything else any different than what he'd already done while alive.


However, Elliott Smith should be Top 5 for sure.
