No influence? They only influenced most of the bands around today. You need to learn an appreciation for the past greats.

You referring to my post?
I realized thet older musicians influenced newer generations but I'm saying I never really listened to them with vigor while growing up.
I am/was big fans of Blind Melon, Nirvana, AIC, Ozzy, Metallica and yes

I can't believe everybody forgot John Bonham. How could anybody forget Led Zeppelin??
Led Zeppelin was on the way downhill even before he died. In Through The Out Door is an abomination to what LZ put out earlier. There's a huge difference in a burned out rock star like Elvis dying and a young talent who dies before his peak.

Without a doubt Jeff Buckley.
He left us with one masterpiece but it's a true tradgedy that the world was robbed of such an amazing artist with such minimal output to savour.

Layne Staley (Sad fucking situation was that and he got NO recognition, Asshole media swept him under the carpet)
Well he's the asshole
He threw it all away because he couldn't get his ass to rehab - idiot screwed himself and the fans

I agree to an extent but You can't deny the fact that AIC had a huge effect on the Grunge movement. Why was Cobain put on a pedistal? You could easily turn it around that way (Fucking idiot shouldn't have pointed the gun at his head? I know, I'm goin straight to hell
) ANd Joplin Killed herself from Alcohol and Hendrix OD'd and Morrison too and Hoon as well, and Elvis ate himself to death
, Bon Scott choked on his own vomit, Mercury fucked too many guys with aids. In short Staley's addiction was no worse than anyone else's.

I know - thats why i haven't mentioned them (except Freddy - AIDS can get the most careful person, it would be unfair to blame him for it without knowing exactly how it happened)
The rest were idiots who didn't appreciate what they had and had it taken away from them - thats probably justice in a way. Idiots that throw up in their sleep should learn to make themselves sick before they go to sleep, or have someone watch over them or just fucking drink less - its less a tragedy than stupidity)
Stayley shot himself up with heroin when he could have got help at any time, it was his choice not to go to rehab, and he paid for it
Same goes for Steve Clarke of Def Leppard - idiot mixed pescribtion drugs and alchohal, totally stupid.
Cliff Burton is a tragedy, guy did nothing wrong, same with Dimebag - but most of the rest killed themselves through their own carelessness

Oh fuck yeah i forgot about him. And it's kinda funny too cuz it was this guy that got me into GnR in the first place.
Here's the story, When i was a kid it was the beginning of the whole "Drugs are bad Mmmm-Kay" campaign and being a kid at the time I was totally hooked on it, So since GnR were such badasses I thought they were stupid cuz they did drugs and Def Leppard was really cool cuz they didn't (
dumb, i know, but i was a kid) Well around '88-'89 there was this story on the news or in the paper ( I can't remember) that Steve Clark from DefLeppard was arrested for drug posession (cocaine i think) in a Limo in LA or something. Well then I said that's stupid and I still liked DefLeppard so i decided to give GnR a shot and I traded my Great White cassette for Lies and AFD from some kid and I never turned back. That's how i got into GnR
BTW here are two other major deaths in music:
Sid Vicious (Sex Pistols) and Hillel Slovak (RHCP)

and Elvis ate himself to death
,
actually his weight problem was probably the result of a genetic ganglionic fold in his colon and the medication he took for his insomnia... and not by excessively overeating (which is far exaggerated by the tabloids)...
elvis died of a heart attack btw...
why does anyone want to post threads like this? so you can enjoy saying how badly someone died cos he/she died worse than someone else?...such wonderful hero worship (thats sarcasm btw)

Layne Staley - his music easily had the biggest impact on me; whenever I go through a hard time, I've got Alice to help get me through
Duanne Allman - that fucker could flat out play his guitar like he invented it
Dennis Danell - half of Social Distortion's song-writning duo (along with Mike Ness); died suddenly of an aneurism in 2000
Graham Parsons - The Flying Burrito Brothers, baby!
D.Boon - 1/3 of the Minutemen (killed in a car accident)--- created one of the ORIGINAL punk rock operas--- check out Double Nickels on the Dime (also check out Zen Arcade by Husker Du for another punk rock opera not named Armerican Idiot)
Also, for those of you who don't understand the physical, emotional, and psychological circumstances surrounding addiction, don't sit in your pedistal and condescend--- I'm sure ya'll got plenty of your own vices
