I was in Tennessee when Elvis died and it was like royalty had died. I remember Lennon as well, terribly sad and tragic. Others who died tragically were John Denver, Patsy Cline, Lynerd Skynerd, Ricky Nelson, The Big Bopper and Richie Valenz ~ off the top of my head.

I remember both of those, i was ten when Elvis passed 1977 and did get a little confused as i thought we had a Queen and everybody was crying over the king! But i did love his music as i got older John Lennon 1980 I loved the song Imagine but i wasn't a Beatles fan only liking a few of their songs.

The earliest (really major) musician death I remember was Johnny Cash. He died when I was 10, in 5th grade. There were some I remember from before them, like Chet Atkins and George Harrison, (both died 2001, when I was 8) but they are more obscure.

Country Musics Johnny Cash and Conway Twitty were 2 big ones for me. +5

Frankie Valenz, The Big Bopper, & Buddy Holly...The Day The Music Died. There was also Stevie Ray Vaughan, Lynyrd Skynyrd, Michael Jackson, Patsy Cline to name a few more. BB King if you like Blues. Oops, almost forgot Freddie Mercury & Jim Croce!!! George Michael, Johnny Cash, Kurt Cobain, Jeff Beck, Ricky Nelson.

Ritchie Valens. He was 17 years old, an accomplished singer, songwriter and guitarist. His career lasted a period of 8 months, and already he was making numerous hits.

It was nearly 80 years ago, but Glenn Miller was maybe the biggest name during the big band era of music and he was killed in a plane crash during World War 2. People nowadays probably think "meh," but, seriously. 17 #1 hits is more than Beyonce and Justin Bieber combined.
