TRIBUTE SONGS TO DEAD MUSICIANS

VA - Tribute Songs to Dead Musicians (A Butterboy Compilation) CD1+CD2+CD3

The death of a musical pioneer reverberates across the music world when you hear of their passing. They shape our thoughts and lives, they move or hearts and they give us gifts that stay with us until we ourselves pass. I for one am eternally grateful for their legacy. Their contributions are carved into my heart.

Musicians are emotional people who live in a fraternity of gifted people. When one of their own dies they are understandably heartbroken by their loss and by knowing the legacy left behind. When another artist writes a song about this lost comrades they generally produce something special.

Here are 75 tracks written by artists who have lost their band-mate/friend/inspiration and often someone they grew with. Certainly they impacted them significantly enough to write a tribute to them. Their legacy is etched into the minds of others and the stories that are shared about  them.

Enjoy these beautiful songs.
