Rock is full of such stories. Whats the one that has shocked or upset you most ?

 

I'll kick off with Adam Ant aka Stuart Goddard.

 

From the best looking bloke in early-80's pop (I admit it, I wanted to BE him LOL)

To the balding, ranting, bespectacled court appearance some 20 years later.

Jeff Buckley.

 

Releases the stunning Grace in 1994, providing the missing link between '90s grunge and all that stuff we used to listen to. Sony proceed to tour him half to death for the next three years.

In 1997, while waiting for members of his band to arrive in Memphis to start re-recording stuff for his second album, he wanders off into the Wolf River for a quick swim.

 

And that was it.

Jim Morrison, the "lizard king" himself - and still one of the most striking rock photos ever IMO.

To the inevitable end ... given his lifestyle.
