Lynyrd Skynyrd keyboardist Billy Powell survived the plane crash that killed members of the band and their crew in 1977, and continued on to play in a tribute band with the same name. He also played piano on Kid Rock's 2007 song 'All summer Long' which samples the Lynyrd Skynyrd classic 'Sweet Home Alabama'. He was inducted into the Rock and Roll hall of fame three years before he was found dead of a heart attack on January 28th aged 56.
