Sept 18, 1970: Rock legend Jimi Hendrix joined “The 27 Club”…. He was in an ambulance after taking too many sleeping pills when he choked to death on his own vomit and was pronounced D.O.A. at the hospital.

Robert Johnson:
Charter Member of the "27" Club

Early this mornin'
When you knocked upon my door
Early this mornin', ooh
When you knocked upon my door
And I said, "Hello Satan,
I believe it's time to go."

"Me And The Devil Blues"

- ROBERT JOHNSON

  I went to the crossroad
Fell down on my knees
I went to the crossroad
Fell down on my knees
Asked the Lord above "Have mercy now,
Save poor Bob, if you please"

"Crossroad Blues" - ROBERT JOHNSON
