One could make a similar list of jazz musicians.
Frank Teschemacher, car accident, 25 yo
Bix Biederbecke, alcohol, 28 yo,
Bunny Berigan--cirrhosis of the liver, 33
Charlie Parker--cirrhosis, pneumonia, 34
Clifford Brown-car accident, 25
John Cotrane-pancreatic cancer, 40
Eric Dolphy--diabetic shock, 36
Chick Webb--tuberculosis of the spine, 34
And that's just what I can think of off the top of my head.
