February 3,1959 I was in the 6th grade. It was my turn to report about the news of the day and I talked about a small plane crash near Clear Lake, Iowa. My teacher didn’t think it was all that important. She was wrong.

Otis Redding died at age 26

If time travel were possible, I'd go back to the late 1700's and take a doctor with me to make sure that Mozart didn't die at the age of 35. Then I'd come back to 1980 and take out Mark Chapman on W 72nd Street before he could shoot John Lennon.

Anybody remember Bobby Darin?!! What a talent; taken too soon......

With the Boneyard demographics I would think he’s very well remembered. This was his first big hit in 1958.

 

[JordyG]

A beautiful soul, a wonderful performer.

 

[JordyG]

Both too soon for me.

Little Red Corvette -- Prince (or the guy formally known as Prince)

 

[nwhoopfan]

Pretty much all of the grunge bands were hit hard by too early deaths.

 

[nwhoopfan]

He wasn't exactly young, but it was definitely way too soon.

 

[nwhoopfan]

The band continued, but guitarist and songwriter Doug Hopkins died at 32. He was credited with several of their songs including this one.

 

[Bezzz]

Please don't forget Jerry. So great, so influential.

 

[nwhoopfan]

Founding member and guitarist/keyboardist Benjamin Curtis died of cancer at 35. The band's final album was released after his death but much of it had already been recorded. The album is a love letter and fond farewell to him, pretty bittersweet.
