Musical Trivia

The following popular singers have something in common, and share it with no others. There is a (rather obscure) hint somewhere in this post.

Jimi Hendrix; Janis Joplin; Otis Redding; Jim Morrison; Jim Croce; Bobby Darin.

Addendum: And we have a winner in comments, together with an explanation of the hint and the reason for the mood icon.

Hmmm. They're all DEAD. But that's obvious, not obscure. My musical trivia muse is on hiatus, apparently...

Dunno. Jimi Hendrix, Janis Joplin and Jim Morrison belong to the 27 club, but the others don't. So I don't know.

They were mentioned in the lyrics to Rock & Roll Heaven.

...by the Righteous Brothers, which was the hint.

The reason for the "bothered" icon: how can you put together a list like that and leave off Buddy Holly?
