  • Featuring rock stars, singers, and musicians who died at 27, this list of 27 Club members includes some of the greatest musicians who died before 30. "The 27 Club" or "Club 27" is the colloquial name given to a group of influential rock musicians who died at the young age of 27. There are a few "members" who are always listed in "27 Club" groupings-such as Jimi Hendrix, Jim Morrison, and Kurt Cobain-and members to come later like Amy Winehouse.

    Amy Winehouse's death is so ironic because she feared she would be part of the 27 club. I feel shaken when I think about that

      ,,,, self-fulfilling prophecy
      If her music was really good I'd still hear it but I don't anywhere no one plays it at parties it's never on the radio she was a bit of hype when she came out and that was it, there are far better singers and writers you don't get half the media attention because they're not trainwrecks. I quickly did the math when her death came up on the screen she was not 27 or under for that much longer I'm convinced she did it on purpose because she was depressed and didn't want to live and be she wanted her Legacy tied in with more more important people..... hang out with a few junkiez they all have this delusion

      Morrison did not look old.... In fact, he wasn't fat like everyone claims. He was about 5'11 and 150 pounds up until his death. It was that beard that he sported and the clothes he was wearing that made him look older and overweight. Keep in mind, everyone from that generation looked mature in their 20's not like to today where many 27 year olds look and behave like they are 15.

    You missed Al "Blind Owl" Wilson of Canned Heat fame who died a couple of weeks before Jimi Hendrix.
    A very notable blues musician who was reputed to be one of the best harmonica players of the era.
    "Going up the Country" was the theme music for Woodstock the film which was composed by Al.

    It's known that for people who suffer from anxiety and depression growing up, things can come to a peak in the mid to late 20s . Some people don't get through it. This is partly what's thought to be behind the untimely death of so many young people at around this age, whether that's through suicide, or from engaging in 'self medicating' behaviours (drugs, alcohol etc) that increase the risk of death. Very sad.

      @@ProMrLecoq01 I think his comment was worded oddly.
      I feel like a sizable amount of people have some sort of anxiety or go through some depressive moments in their 20s. By your late 20s most people have experienced the average hard hitting life experiences that most older adults have gone through (death, break ups, living on your own etc), you've experimented with drugs/alcohol, you've found yourself, figured out what kind of person you enjoy being with and friends with, you've gone through school and you have a career lined up. So on paper most of us have gotten through that bumpy journey of early adulthood.
      Then you have other people who have actual depression and anxiety. The kind that's life long. I think alot of musician deal with life long depression and anxiety and they use the art form of music to express those feelings expect like for others it doesnt ever get better. Young adults might use drugs/alcohol for fun and probably move on from that but the depressed people eventually rely on them to self medicate killing them at a young age

    Brian Jones and Jimi Hendrix were close friends, and Jim Morrison wrote a poem dedicated to him on the day he died.
    A little bit of clarification about the Rock N' Roll Circus -
    Brian wasn't high there. He was in a bad emotional state because he felt alienated from the band and felt the other band members didn't want him there.
    However, he did play a pretty slide guitar on the song "No Expectations" at the concert.

    • @Bklyn93

      @Steve Robinson The Rock N' Roll Concert was recorded live between December 11th and December 12th 1968. All songs were recorded and performed live there in December.
      The studio song No Expectations from Beggar's Banquet was recorded in May 1968. He was dead in July 1969. His last songs with the Stones were "You Got the Silver" from Let it Bleed, on which he plays autoharp, which was recorded in March or April 1969. He also plays congas on the song Midnight Rambler from Let it Bleed, and that was recorded in April 1969.

    The life of Robert Johnson was really worth of a documentary or a series. Apparently, he was once a really bad guitar player who couldn't book a gig on an era of live played music, but his improvements in a matter of days were so high that led to controversy , and rumours of a Deal with the Devil . But the truth is that Johnson's skills are more than impressive. Extremely crafty stuff. There are moments that it seems two guitars are played. Absolutely a top, top guitar player, and in an era you could only play acoustic.
