Not from Houston but he died there. He had released some awesome shit right before he died.

An interesting conundrum for consideration in connection with artists like Hendrix that died of drug-related causes.  Not just musicians, of course,

Prolonged life for a lot of them would have entailed sobriety, which probably would have changed the "character" of their output, if not the quality.

Syd Barrett lived to be an old man,  but he was “gone” by late 1968. Would have been interesting to see where he would have either taken Pink Floyd or what a solo career would have looked like if he had not fried his brain.  His output would have definitely changed.

2016 and 2017 were rough.  We lost Prince, Bowie, and Petty.  I think we were probably going to get some good music out of all of them.  Also, this country hasn't been the same since then.

I would love to have heard what Joy Division would have done had Ian Curtis not killed himself, but in the flip side, I'm a huge New Order fan and so it's a bit of a Sofia's choice.

With that in mind, I'll go with Elliot Smith.
