RIP. I've often felt the Eagles, whilst much loved, were under-respected. I hope this sad passing gets the attention it deserves.

What a sad and strange period for notable deaths lately. Especially if you also count the deaths of people like Natalie Cole, Alan Rickman, Celine Dion's husband (and later her brother) and the guy who played Grizzly Adams.

Stranger and sadder still that the death that kickstarted this train was Scott's. I'm sure this will make conspiracy nuts all the crazier.

The Hell Freezes Over tour they did in the 90s was one of the highest grossing of the decade.  I don't really know what more people could do to show respect.

Bowie, undoubtedly.
Grab the hate and drown it out...

Yeah, that's not even kind of a question. Maybe that's the joke, if that is, well done sir.

Bowie will definitely get it yeah, although Scott's probably sold more records in the USA than either of them. Maybe both of them combined.

Of course, Bowie deserves it, without Bowie there is no Scott anyway!
