  • 2021 was yet another tough year of losses for far too many iconic rock stars that we grew up listening too. The following 70's & 80's Rock Star celebrities passed away in the Hard Rock, Heavy Metal, and Classic Rock genre and even a couple of pop rockers. In their own way, each of these musicians and artist have left a truly remarkable impression on the World with their art. Here is my annual tribute for some of the brightest stars who died in 2021 in chronological order. Along side each name, I've also listed what band or bands they were known for, how old they were and the cause of death if it was at the time the video was made.
    Tim Bogert (76) VANILLA FUDGE, CACTUS, BOGERT-BECK & APPICE
    Michael Stanley (72) MICHAEL STANLEY BAND
    Alan Cartwright (75) PROCOL HARUM
    Jim Steinman (73) MEAT LOAF
    Les McKeown (65) BAY CITY ROLLERS
    John Hinch (73) JUDAS PRIEST
    Johnny Solinger (55) SKID ROW
    John Lawton (74) URIAH HEEP
    Jeff LaBar (58) CINDERELLA
    Gary Corbett (61) CINDERELLA, KISS
    Robby Steinhardt (71) KANSAS
    Mike Howe (55) METAL CHURCH
    Joey Jordison (46) SLIP KNOT
    Dusty Hill (72) ZZ TOP
    Charlie Watts (80) ROLLING STONES
    Ron Bushy (79) IRON BUTTERFLY
    Rickie Lee Reynolds (72) BLACK OAK ARKANSAS
    Alan Lancaster (72) STATUS QUO
    Graeme Edge (80) MOODY BLUES
    Michael Nesmith (78) MONKEES
    Although these insanely gifted musicians are no longer with us, their music and the memories that we have of them will live on forever with us. Thank you for the Music and Memories! Rest in Peace.

    Being an 80s rocker girl, I was saddened by quite a few of these. But none more than Jeff Labar.
    Jeff was always my favorite in Cinderella. I met him quite a few times over the years and he was always a sweetheart. But a few years ago I did the Monsters of Rock cruise 4 years in a row and Jeff was on it. I spent a lot of time with him in those 4 years. He was so sweet and kind. And I still never got over the fact one of my biggest crushes knew my name and wanted to spend time with me. I still have my memory of the last time I saw him. The morning of the cruise he was on the deck and I sat down and we talked. He gave me a huge hug and told me he would see me the next year. I never went back on the cruise. But I will always have those memories.
