Janis Joplin 19/01/43 – 04/10/70
With her album ‘Pearl’ in production, Rock n Roll’s first female superstar visited the Sunset Sound Studios in Los Angeles, to listen to the track ‘Buried Alive In The Blues’, for which she was due to record vocals for the following day. She failed to show up and her lifeless body was discovered on the floor of her hotel room at the Landmark Motor Hotel. She had died of a heroin overdose combined with excessive amounts of alcohol.

- this is an intense line up of great musicians! Unfortunately they left us too soon!

- this sux jimi hendrix and kurt cobain died ****ing drugs and guns and women

- Although this is contentious, Richie Edwards of the Manic Street Preachers also disappeared at 27 I think. He can’t be an official member of the 27 club as his body was never found even though its suspected he jumed off the severn bridge
