Phil Lesh, one of the founding members and bassist for the
band Grateful Dead, has died. In 2020, Rolling Stone ranked
him as the 11th greatest bass player.

His death was confirmed on his official Instagram page, which
said he "passed peacefully this morning. He was surrounded
by his family and full of love." He was 84 years old. 

Three musicians from the iconic American rock band Lynyrd
Skynyrd, plus three others, were killed in a terrifying plane
crash on the Louisiana-Mississippi border on this day in
history, Oct. 20, 1977.

Lead singer and founder Ronnie Van Zant, guitarist Steve
Gaines, and his sister, backup singer Cassie Gaines, were
all killed on impact.

The crash of the small Convair CV-240 passenger plane also
claimed the lives of assistant road manager Dean Kilpatrick,
pilot Walter McCreary and co-pilot William Gray.
