Hendrix spent the last evening with his girlfriend in London. The next morning she called an ambulance because he was unconscious and unresponsive. “He died before arriving at the hospital. An autopsy will be performed due to the unclear cause of death, “the Associated Press wrote after Hendrix’s death.

Janis Joplin
Singer and one of the biggest stars of the hippie generation, Janis Joplin, was known for enjoying life to the bottom.

Her body was found dead by a manager in a hotel room. The cause of death was an overdose, although no narcotics were originally found in the room. “But it was not a suicide, her death was an unfortunate accident,” the autopsy report summarized later.
Joplin sent a gift to her loyal fans from the grave. “Her last studio album Pearl was released the year after her death,” says Janis Joplin’s official fan club website. The famous singer is one of the few women on the list, as most of the “members” of Club 27 are men.

Morrison died of heart failure at the age of twenty-seven. “They told me on the phone and I didn’t believe it. We’ve heard nonsense like this often, like Jim jumping off a cliff or something. So we sent our manager to Paris, where Jim was. He said it was true, “recalled The Doors guitarist Robby Krieger, recalling Morrison’s death.
Due to previous deaths of musical legends and the failure to perform an autopsy, a number of conspiracy theories have emerged around Morrison’s death. “With his life under scrutiny and controversy in previous months, Morrison went to Paris to regain his lost balance in life and well-being. When he died and no autopsy was performed, fans demanded the discovery of the true cause of death. Some believed that Morrison was fake a death. One of the best-known, but never confirmed theories was that he was killed by a dose of questionable heroin, “says the Ultimate Classic Rock server.
