Summary
This episode looks at artists we lost too soon and how those moments shaped music and our sense of chance vs. talent. Eddie shares some names that come to his mind right off the bat, Bobby explains why he won’t get on four-seat planes, and we revisit Stevie Ray Vaughan’s helicopter crash. From there: what “special” ability really is, how exposure unlocks it, what parents notice in their kids, shared consciousness, natural selection, and imagining how the greats might sound today. From there, the guys move through key cases: Patsy Cline, Jim Croce, Lynyrd Skynyrd, Selena, John Lennon, and 2Pac. Plus, how a rocker in an accident that involved a plane and a tour bus!
